[[Family history]] increases the [[risk]] of having [[cavernous angioma]]. [[Genetic testing]] is recommended for the [[pathogenic variants]] of [[cavernous angioma]] (''[[KRIT1]]'', ''[[MGC4607]]'', and ''[[PDCD10]]'').

*Familial forms of CCM occur at three known genetic loci.
*There are three known [[genetic loci]] for [[cavernous angioma]]. These are [[CCM1]], [[CCM2]], and [[CCM3]].
*The gene for CCM1 encodes ''KRIT1'' (krev interaction trapped 1) and has been found to bind to ICAP1alpha (integrin cytoplasmic domain associated protein alpha), a beta1 [[integrin]] associated protein. <ref name="pmid28387823">{{cite journal| author=Akers A, Al-Shahi Salman R, A Awad I, Dahlem K, Flemming K, Hart B | display-authors=etal| title=Synopsis of Guidelines for the Clinical Management of Cerebral Cavernous Malformations: Consensus Recommendations Based on Systematic Literature Review by the Angioma Alliance Scientific Advisory Board Clinical Experts Panel. | journal=Neurosurgery | year= 2017 | volume= 80 | issue= 5 | pages= 665-680 | pmid=28387823 | doi=10.1093/neuros/nyx091 | pmc=5808153 | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=28387823  }} </ref>
*[[CCM1]] encodes for [[krev interaction trapped 1]] (''[[KRIT1]]'') which binds to [[integrin cytoplasmic domain associated protein alpha]] ([[ICAP1alpha|ICAP1-alpha]]), a beta-1 [[integrin]] associated [[protein]]. <ref name="pmid28387823">{{cite journal| author=Akers A, Al-Shahi Salman R, A Awad I, Dahlem K, Flemming K, Hart B | display-authors=etal| title=Synopsis of Guidelines for the Clinical Management of Cerebral Cavernous Malformations: Consensus Recommendations Based on Systematic Literature Review by the Angioma Alliance Scientific Advisory Board Clinical Experts Panel. | journal=Neurosurgery | year= 2017 | volume= 80 | issue= 5 | pages= 665-680 | pmid=28387823 | doi=10.1093/neuros/nyx091 | pmc=5808153 | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=28387823  }} </ref>

Recently, it has been shown that CCM1 and CCM2 proteins as well as ICAP1alpha form a macromolecular complex in the cell. In addition, it appears that CCM2 protein may function as a scaffolding protein for [[MAP kinases]] that are essential in p38 activation responding to osmotic stress including MEKK3 and MKK3. It also binds to [[Rac]] and [[actin]]. Therefore, CCM2 protein is also called OSM (osmosensing scaffold for MEKK3).
*''[[CCM2]]'' encodes for [[MGC4607]]. <ref name="pmid28387823">{{cite journal| author=Akers A, Al-Shahi Salman R, A Awad I, Dahlem K, Flemming K, Hart B | display-authors=etal| title=Synopsis of Guidelines for the Clinical Management of Cerebral Cavernous Malformations: Consensus Recommendations Based on Systematic Literature Review by the Angioma Alliance Scientific Advisory Board Clinical Experts Panel. | journal=Neurosurgery | year= 2017 | volume= 80 | issue= 5 | pages= 665-680 | pmid=28387823 | doi=10.1093/neuros/nyx091 | pmc=5808153 | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=28387823  }} </ref> The exact nature of [[CCM2]] is still unclear. However, it has been proven that there is a [[macromolecular]]complex formed by [[CCM1]] and [[CCM2]] [[proteins]] and [[ICAP1alpha|ICAP1 alpha]] inside the [[cell]]. Also, the [[CCM2]] [[protein]] can serve as a [[scaffolding protein]] for [[enzymes]] like [[MAP kinases]] which is essential in [[p38]] [[activation]], responsible for regulation of [[osmotic]] [[stress]] including [[MEKK3]] and [[MKK3]]. It also attaches to [[Rac]] and [[actin]]. Because of these, the [[CCM2]] [[protein]] is oftentimes called [[osmosensing scaffold|osmo-sensing scaffold]] ([[OSM]]) for [[MEKK3]].
*The ''CCM3'' gene was the most recent CCM gene identified. CCM3 was known as ''PDCD10'' (programmed cell death 10), which was initially identified as a gene that is up-regulated during the induction of [[apoptosis]] (cell death) in TF-1, a human [[myeloid]] cell line. The precise role of the PDCD10 protein in the CCM pathway that has been established to this point has not yet been determined.

*Mutations in these three genes account for 70 to 80 percent of all cases of cerebral cavernous malformations. The remaining 20 to 30 percent of cases may be due to other, still unidentified, genes.
*The [[mutations]] in the [[CCM1]], [[CCM2]], and [[CCM3]] [[genes]] account for almost 70 to 80 percent of all cases of [[cerebral cavernous malformations]]. The rest has yet to be identified.
