[Advance in genetics research on Gastrointestinal polyposis syndromes].

Gastrointestinal polyposis syndromes are primarily characterized by multiple polyps in the gastrointestinal tract, with their pathogenic mechanisms largely related to genetic factors and involving multiple signaling pathways. Adenomatous polyposis syndromes are mainly associated with APC gene variants, while some cases may arise from MUTYH gene variants. Peutz-Jeghers syndrome is primarily linked to STK11 gene variants. Juvenile polyposis syndrome is mainly associated with variants in the SMAD4 and BMPR1A genes. PTEN hamartoma tumor syndrome is predominantly caused by PTEN gene variants. Hereditary mixed polyposis syndrome is primarily related to variants of the GREM1 and BMPR1A genes. This article systematically summarizes the advances in genetic research on Gastrointestinal polyposis syndromes to enhance clinicians' understanding of these diseases and improve their diagnostic and therapeutic approaches.
