LOINC display name : VEGFA gene c.-1154A G genotype Molgen (Bld/Tiss);
LOINC long common name : VEGFA gene c.-1154A G [Genotype] in Blood or Tissue by Molecular genetics method Nominal;
LOINC short name : VEGFA c.-1154A G Geno Bld/T;
LOINC description : The patient's genotype results (e.g. G/G) for the c.-1154A G (rs1570360) in the VEGFA
gene. VEGFA variants are associated with breast cancer risk, tumor characteristics,
prognosis, and altered plasma and serum levels of VEGFA.[PMID: 22993299] The GA genotype
for the rs1570360 variant is also found to be a genetic protective factor for development
arterial hypertension and is associated with less progressed chronic kidney disease
(CKD).[PMID: 27342693];
