Prognostic Information for Known Genetic Carriers of RB1 Pathogenic Variants (Germline and Mosaic)
نویسندگان
چکیده
To compare the number of tumors per eye for mosaic carriers RB1 pathogenic variants with full germline and conversion from unilateral to bilateral disease. Retrospective cohort study comparing patients retinoblastoma different genetic subtypes: high penetrance (HP), low (LP), mosaicism. Data were analyzed between 1992 2018 at Retinoblastoma Unit, Royal London Hospital, London, United Kingdom. All familial had a parent known variant even if did not manifest Number in children who developed that eye. Other outcomes included total patient, age diagnosis, laterality presentation later, sex, stage according International Intraocular Classification. A 111 included: 64 germline, (53 HP 11 LP) 47 patients. Twelve (23%) unilateral, 8 12 (67%) their previously unaffected 34 (72%) only 2 (6%) Age diagnosis was higher (median, 22 months) than (median 7) (P < 0.00002). The fewer alleles 1.0; range, 1–6) compared 3.0; 1–8) 0.0003). 3 (4 eyes) mosaicism more levels Children have those high-penetrant are likely remain unilateral. level has an impact on tumors.

Pathogenic Germline Variants in 10,389 Adult Cancers
We conducted the largest investigation of predisposition variants in cancer to date, discovering 853 pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants in 8% of 10,389 cases from 33 cancer types. Twenty-one genes showed single or cross-cancer associations, including novel associations of SDHA in melanoma and PALB2 in stomach adenocarcinoma. The 659 predisposition variants and 18 additional large deletion...
متن کاملVariants of Mixtures: Information Properties and Applications
In recent years, we have studied information properties of various types of mixtures of probability distributions and introduced a new type, which includes previously known mixtures as special cases. These studies are disseminated in different fields: reliability engineering, econometrics, operations research, probability, the information theory, and data mining. This paper presents a holistic ...
متن کاملGenetic and Epigenetic landscape of Germline Stem Cells
Elucidating the critical epigenetics events involved in differentiation and reprogramming of cells to primordial germ cells (PGCs) is among the interesting issues in stem cell research. Here, I will talk about critical transcription factors and global hypomethylation in development of germ cells. Evidence strongly suggests that the earliest PGCs emerging in the E7.25 mouse embryo epiblast have...
متن کاملInformation for genetic management of mtDNA disease: sampling pathogenic mtDNA mutants in the human germline and in placenta.
BACKGROUND Families with a child who died of severe, maternally inherited mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) disease need information on recurrence risk. Estimating this risk is difficult because of (a) heteroplasmy-the coexistence of mutant and normal mtDNA in the same person-and (b) the so-called mitochondrial bottleneck, whereby the small number of mtDNAs that become the founders for the offspring ca...
متن کاملImpact of germline susceptibility variants in cancer genetic studies
Although somatic mutations are the main contributor to cancer, underlying germline alterations may increase the risk of cancer, mold the somatic alteration landscape and cooperate with acquired mutations to promote the tumor onset and/or maintenance. Therefore, both tumor genome and germline sequence data have to be analyzed to have a more complete picture of the overall genetic foundation of t...
