This breast cancer lecture explains about the brca gene (brca1 and brca2 mechanism) mutation which leads to the development of breast cancer.
A BRCA mutation is a mutation in both of the genes BRCA1 and BRCA2. Detrimental mutations in these tumor suppressor genes produce a hereditary breast-ovarian melanoma syndrome in affected families. Mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 are distinctive, and breast cancer is relatively original, so these mutations consequently account for only five to ten percent of all breast cancer cases in women.
1000s of distinctive types of mutations in these genes have been recognized. Excessive-danger mutations, which disable an primary error-free DNA repair procedure (homology directed repair), tremendously develop the character's threat of setting up breast cancer, ovarian melanoma and specific different cancers. Why BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations lead preferentially to cancers of the breast and ovary is not identified, but lack of BRCA1 function seems to result in non-useful x-chromosome inactivation. No longer all mutations are excessive-chance; some show up to be harmless editions. The cancer hazard related to any given mutation varies greatly and depends on the distinctive variety and area of the mutation and in all probability different person reasons.
Ladies with unsafe mutations in either BRCA1 or BRCA2 have risk of breast melanoma that is about five occasions the average chance, and a hazard of ovarian cancer that's about ten to thirty occasions common. BRCA1 mutations typically confer a higher danger of breast and ovarian melanoma in females than BRCA2 mutations. Having a high-threat mutation does no longer guarantee that the girl will increase any sort of cancer, or warranty that any melanoma that appears was once genuinely induced through the mutation, alternatively than every other element, like alcohol consumption.

If you’re a breast cancer patient, you’ve probably heard the term BRCA being used.
There are two BRCA (Breast Cancer Susceptibility) tumor suppressor genes that are either BRCA1 or BRCA2.
Everyone has BRCA gene, one of each from your mother and one from your father. When these genes work correctly, these inherited BRCA genes can actually help your body prevent cancer.
Although when changes and mutations in the BRCA genes occur, cells are at risk of dividing and changing rapidly. This can lead to cancer developing.
According to SHARE Cancer Support Board Member and Genetic Counselor, it’s been said that if you had a BRCA mutation, you had a 75% chance of getting breast cancer.
In time, we have learned that your risk may be significantly less.
Find out what your likelihood of getting cancer is if you have BRCA gene abnormalities by watching the video below.

October is breast cancer awareness month, and while most people are aware of breast cancer, they may be unaware of certain factors which increase the risk of developing the disease.
Individuals with a strong family history of breast cancer may choose to receive a gene test to assess these risks.
A gene test looks for specific mutations in your BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene. A mutation in these genes can be inherited from either your mother or your father.
BRCA1 and BRCA2 help control normal cell growth. Mutations in these genes may increase the risk of developing breast cancer.
According to the National Cancer Institute:
About 12% of women in the general population will develop breast cancer. However, about 45% of women who have inherited a BRCA2 mutation will develop breast cancer, and about 55-65% of women with a BRCA1 mutations will develop breast cancer.
Consider putting together an early detection plan and be proactive about your health.

Because harmful BRCA1 and BRCA2 gene mutations are relatively rare in the general population, most experts agree that mutation testing of individuals who do not have cancer should be performed only when the person’s family history suggests the possible presence of a harmful mutation in BRCA1 or BRCA2.
There are options for Couples with known BRCA 1 and BRCA 2 genes: PGD is one of them.

A BRCA mutation is a mutation in either of the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes, which are tumor suppressor genes. Unfortunately, some of these genetic mutations can be harmful.
Harmful mutations in these genes may produce a hereditary breast-ovarian cancer syndrome in patients. Although only 5-10% of breast cancer cases in women are due to BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations, the impact on women with the gene mutation is overwhelming.
Women with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations have a risk of breast cancer that is about five times the normal risk, and a risk of ovarian cancer that is about ten to thirty times normal.
Though the cancer risk is high for patients with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations, this does not necessarily mean that the patient will develop breast cancer.
Invitae Genetic Counselor Raluca Kurz shares the BRCA Mutation red flags you should be looking for. If any of these signs pertain to you, please undergo genetic testing to find out if you carry any of these harmful genetic mutations.

Women who have no family history of breast cancer and don’t carry the BRCA1 or 2 gene mutation, have only a 12% chance of getting breast cancer in their lifetime.
But, women with BRCA1 have about a 65% chance of developing it by the time they turn 70; the likelihood is a little lower for women with BRCA2 at 45%.
Now that you know how important BRCA1 & BRCA2 is and how it affects your cancer risk, what exactly is it?

A BRCA mutation is a mutation in either of the genes BRCA1 and BRCA2. Harmful mutations in these genes produce a hereditary breast-ovarian cancer syndrome in affected families. Mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 are uncommon, and breast cancer is relatively common, so these mutations consequently account for only five to ten percent of all breast cancer cases in women.
Hundreds of different types of mutations in these genes have been identified. High-risk mutations, which disable an important error-free DNA repair process (homology directed repair), significantly increase the person's risk of developing breast cancer, ovarian cancer and certain other cancers. Why BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations leads preferentially to cancers of the breast and ovary are not known, but lack of BRCA1 function seems to lead to non-functional x-chromosome inactivation. Not all mutations are high-risk; some appear to be harmless variations. The cancer risk associated with any given mutation varies significantly and depends on the exact type and location of the mutation and possibly other individual factors.

Excessive-danger mutations, which disable an primary error-free DNA repair procedure (homology directed repair), tremendously develop the character's threat of setting up breast cancer, ovarian melanoma and specific different cancers. Why BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations lead preferentially to cancers of the breast and ovary is not identified, but lack of BRCA1 function seems to result in non-useful x-chromosome inactivation. No longer all mutations are excessive-chance; some show up to be harmless editions. The cancer hazard related to any given mutation varies greatly and depends on the distinctive variety and area of the mutation and in all probability different person reasons.
Ladies with unsafe mutations in either BRCA1 or BRCA2 have risk of breast melanoma that is about five occasions the average chance, and a hazard of ovarian cancer that's about ten to thirty occasions common. BRCA1 mutations typically confer a higher danger of breast and ovarian melanoma in females than BRCA2 mutations. Having a high-threat mutation does no longer guarantee that the girl will increase any sort of cancer, or warranty that any melanoma that appears was once genuinely induced through the mutation, alternatively than every other element, like alcohol consumption.

wn.com/Brca Mutation
This breast cancer lecture explains about the brca gene (brca1 and brca2 mechanism) mutation which leads to the development of breast cancer.
A BRCA mutation is a mutation in both of the genes BRCA1 and BRCA2. Detrimental mutations in these tumor suppressor genes produce a hereditary breast-ovarian melanoma syndrome in affected families. Mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 are distinctive, and breast cancer is relatively original, so these mutations consequently account for only five to ten percent of all breast cancer cases in women.
1000s of distinctive types of mutations in these genes have been recognized. Excessive-danger mutations, which disable an primary error-free DNA repair procedure (homology directed repair), tremendously develop the character's threat of setting up breast cancer, ovarian melanoma and specific different cancers. Why BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations lead preferentially to cancers of the breast and ovary is not identified, but lack of BRCA1 function seems to result in non-useful x-chromosome inactivation.

If you’re a breast cancer patient, you’ve probably heard the term BRCA being used.
There are two BRCA (Breast Cancer Susceptibility) tumor suppressor genes that are either BRCA1 or BRCA2.
Everyone has BRCA gene, one of each from your mother and one from your father. When these genes work correctly, these inherited BRCA genes can actually help your body prevent cancer.
Although when changes and mutations in the BRCA genes occur, cells are at risk of dividing and changing rapidly. This can lead to cancer developing.
According to SHARE Cancer Support Board Member and Genetic Counselor, it’s been said that if you had a BRCA mutation, you had a 75% chance of getting breast cancer.
In time, we have learned that your risk may be significantly less.
Find out what your likelihood of getting cancer is if you have BRCA gene abnormalities by watching the video below.

October is breast cancer awareness month, and while most people are aware of breast cancer, they may be unaware of certain factors which increase the risk of developing the disease.
Individuals with a strong family history of breast cancer may choose to receive a gene test to assess these risks.
A gene test looks for specific mutations in your BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene. A mutation in these genes can be inherited from either your mother or your father.
BRCA1 and BRCA2 help control normal cell growth. Mutations in these genes may increase the risk of developing breast cancer.
According to the National Cancer Institute:
About 12% of women in the general population will develop breast cancer. However, about 45% of women who have inherited a BRCA2 mutation will develop breast cancer, and about 55-65% of women with a BRCA1 mutations will develop breast cancer.
Consider putting together an early detection plan and be proactive about your health.

A BRCA mutation is a mutation in either of the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes, which are tumor suppressor genes. Unfortunately, some of these genetic mutations can be harmful.
Harmful mutations in these genes may produce a hereditary breast-ovarian cancer syndrome in patients. Although only 5-10% of breast cancer cases in women are due to BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations, the impact on women with the gene mutation is overwhelming.
Women with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations have a risk of breast cancer that is about five times the normal risk, and a risk of ovarian cancer that is about ten to thirty times normal.
Though the cancer risk is high for patients with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations, this does not necessarily mean that the patient will develop breast cancer.
Invitae Genetic Counselor Raluca Kurz shares the BRCA Mutation red flags you should be looking for. If any of these signs pertain to you, please undergo genetic testing to find out if you carry any of these harmful genetic mutations.
