When to consider an inborn error of immunity: clues for physicians
Abstract The term inborn errors of immunity (IEIs) refers to the rapidly expanding group of genetic disorders causing dysregulation of the immune system. With improved genetic testing in recent years, the number of defined IEIs and their range of phenotypic presentations has grown vastly, with more than 550 IEIs now described.

Unsupervised hierarchical clustering of the 66 BRCA2 signature genes in the validation set.
There are 19 BRCA2-mutant tumors and 12 BRCAX tumors. The lower left quadrant contains many genes on 13q and 14q that show reduced expression in BRCA2 tumors.

ABSTRACT Aim The objective of this study was to investigate the global profile of plasmatic proteins of individuals affected simultaneously or not by type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM, well/poorly‐controlled), Dyslipidemia (DL), and Periodontitis (P). Methods Besides periodontal examination, plasma was collected for glycemic, and lipid analyses from 150 ...

Background Germline mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes are among the main causes of hereditary ovarian cancer. Identifying these mutations may reduce cancer risk, facilitate early detection, and enable personalized treatment.

Population testing for cancer predisposing BRCA1/BRCA2 mutations
Background: Technological advances raise the possibility of systematic population-based genetic testing for cancer-predisposing mutations, but it is uncertain whether benefits outweigh disadvantages.

ABSTRACT Gene expression profiling (GEP) is being used with increasing frequency to characterise canine tumours, but canine samples are often not collected in a medium to preserve RNA. Cytology samples from human tumours have been shown to provide adequate RNA for GEP using NanoString nCounter technology, suggesting a similar approach might be viable ...

Breast Cancer Gene (BRCA1, BRCA2)
Most women with breast cancer do not have a familial history of the disease in a first degree relative and hereditary breast cancer caused by a mutant gene passed from parents to their children is rare; only 5-10% of breast cancers are estimated to be attributable to the inheritance of rare highly penetrant, germline mutations of genes, although this ...

Preventing hereditary cancers caused by opportunistic carcinogens
Objectives Previous studies reported inherited BRCA1/2 deficits appear to cause cancer by impairing normal protective responses to some carcinogens.

An Update on Early‐Onset Breast Cancer: Incidence, Risk Factors, Genetic Testing, and Treatment
ABSTRACT Early‐onset breast cancer presents in patients typically under the age of 40, while very early‐onset breast cancer is usually viewed as breast cancer occurring before the age of 35. Early‐onset breast cancer demonstrates specific molecular properties and has worse outcomes compared to its late‐onset breast cancer counterpart.
