Genetic susceptibility to malignant diseases--ethical issues. Minireview.

Neoplasma

Munzarová M.
PMID: 12044052
Neoplasma. 2002;49(1):1-4.

Ethical problems connected with genetic testing with the intention of the measurement of the susceptibility or predisposition to malignant tumors are presented (respect for autonomy, beneficence, nonmaleficence, confidentiality, privacy, veracity and truth-telling, informed consent, right to know, right not...

Inherited cancer in children: practical/ethical problems and challenges.

European journal of cancer (Oxford, England : 1990)

Tischkowitz M, Rosser E.
PMID: 15519520
Eur J Cancer. 2004 Nov;40(16):2459-70. doi: 10.1016/j.ejca.2004.06.005.

Over recent years significant molecular advances have led to a better understanding of the genetics of both syndromic and non-syndromic paediatric cancers. In addition many hereditary cancer predisposition syndromes are now recognised, some of which have implications for children...

Predictive DNA testing for glaucoma: reality in 2003.

Ophthalmology clinics of North America

Mackey DA, Craig JE.
PMID: 14741004
Ophthalmol Clin North Am. 2003 Dec;16(4):639-45. doi: 10.1016/s0896-1549(03)00066-x.

As new genes and common mutations are identified, DNA testing can be offered. Like clinical testing used in glaucoma, such as IOP, tonography, disc measurements, nerve fiber layer analysis, and the various methods of visual field analysis, well-designed studies...

The search for disease susceptibility genes. Medical and ethical problems of predictive medicine.

Comptes rendus de l'Academie des sciences. Serie III, Sciences de la vie

Revillard JP.
PMID: 10609086
C R Acad Sci III. 1999 Oct;322(10):825-9. doi: 10.1016/s0764-4469(00)86646-9.

Thanks to major progress in genetics, a great number of disease susceptibility genes have been characterized. However, the concept of genetic defect is challenged by the elusive boundary between genetic diseases and allelic polymorphism which represents a major adaptative...

Screening for cancer susceptibility in children.

Current opinion in pediatrics

Malkin D, Friend SH.
PMID: 8205174
Curr Opin Pediatr. 1994 Feb;6(1):46-51. doi: 10.1097/00008480-199402000-00009.

Epidemiologic studies have demonstrated that virtually every form of human cancer may aggregate in families. Genetic susceptibility plays an important role in the development of many of these cancers, yet until very recently genes associated with this susceptibility had...

PMID: 10702609
Comb Chem High Throughput Screen. 2000 Feb;3(1):1-9. doi: 10.2174/1386207003327756.

A point mutation of a nucleotide within a single gene can have a profound effect on a specific organ and/or the entire human body. DNA sequences associated with human diseases may differ from the corresponding normal sequences by single...
