Genetic Predisposition to Neuroblastoma [PDF]

open access: yesChildren, 2018
Neuroblastoma is the most common solid tumor in children under the age of one. It displays remarkable phenotypic heterogeneity, resulting in differences in outcomes that correlate with clinical and biologic features at diagnosis.

Genetic Predisposition to Hepatocellular Carcinoma

open access: yesMetabolites, 2022
Liver preneoplastic and neoplastic lesions of the genetically susceptible F344 and resistant BN rats cluster, respectively, with human HCC with better (HCCB) and poorer prognosis (HCCP); therefore, they represent a valid model to study the molecular ...

Genetic Predisposition to Solid Pediatric Cancers

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2020
Progresses over the past years have extensively improved our capacity to use genome-scale analyses—including high-density genotyping and exome and genome sequencing—to identify the genetic basis of pediatric tumors.

Principles of genetic predisposition to malignancies [PDF]

open access: yesHereditary Cancer in Clinical Practice, 2008
It is estimated that around 30% of all malignancies are caused by a "high-risk" genetic predisposition [1]. This estimation is based on an evaluation of occurrence of disease among monozygotic twins. If one of them is affected with prostate (PC) or breast cancer (BC), then the probability of occurrence of this disease in the second sibling is 40% for ...

Genetic Predisposition to Infectious Disease [PDF]

open access: yesCureus, 2018
In contemporary medical practice, approaches to infectious disease management have been primarily rooted in a pathogen-centered model. However, host genetics also contribute significantly to infectious disease burden. The fast expansion of bioinformatics techniques and the popularization of the genome-wide association study (GWAS) in recent decades ...

Genetic predisposition in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease [PDF]

open access: yesClinical and Molecular Hepatology, 2017
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease whose prevalence has reached global epidemic proportions. Although the disease is relatively benign in the early stages, when severe clinical forms, including nonalcoholic ...

Genetic Predisposition to Colorectal Cancer: How Many and Which Genes to Test?

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023
Colorectal cancer is one of the most common tumors, and genetic predisposition is one of the key risk factors in the development of this malignancy. Lynch syndrome and familial adenomatous polyposis are the best-known genetic diseases associated with ...

Network location and clustering of genetic mutations determine chronicity in a stylized model of genetic diseases [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep 12, 19906 (2022), 2022
In a highly simplified view, a disease can be seen as the phenotype emerging from the interplay of genetic predisposition and fluctuating environmental stimuli. We formalize this situation in a minimal model, where a network (representing cellular regulation) serves as an interface between an input layer (representing environment) and an output layer ...
