Myeloid neoplasms include myelodysplastic/ myeloproliferative neoplasms (MDS/MPN) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). While majority of these disorders are still sporadic, it is becoming clear that a subset of them have a germline predisposition and is familial in nature. With the advancement and integration of molecular studies, it has been recognized that approximately 5-10% of hematological ma...
متن کاملInherited predisposition to acute myeloid leukemia.
Germline testing for familial predisposition to myeloid malignancies is becoming more common with the recognition of multiple familial syndromes.

متن کاملInherited predisposition to glioma.
In gliomas, germline gene alterations play a significant role during malignant transformation of progenitor glial cells, at least for families with occurrence of multiple cancers or with specific hereditary cancer syndromes. Scientific evidence during the last few years has revealed several constitutive genetic abnormalities that may influence glioma formation. These germline abnormalities are ...
متن کاملPolygenic inherited predisposition to breast cancer.
The known breast cancer predisposing genes account for only about 20% of inherited susceptibility. Epidemiological analyses suggest that much of the remaining 80% is explained by the combined effect of many individually weak genetic variants, rather than by further rare, highly penetrant mutations. In the near term, identification of variants may indicate new pathways or mechanisms in breast ca...
متن کاملLeading article Inherited predisposition to pancreatic cancer
Pancreatic cancer is the fifth leading cause of death from cancer in men and women in Europe and North America. The prognosis has not changed significantly despite improvements in diagnosis and perioperative management. Traditional chemotherapy and radiotherapy regimens have been rather ineVective in providing control of the disease. The only consistent risk factor identified so far is smoking ...
