Genetic counselling and testing for Lynch syndrome (LS) have recently been introduced in several Latin America countries. We aimed to characterize the clinical, molecular mismatch repair (MMR) variants spectrum of patients with suspected LS America.Eleven hereditary cancer registries 34 published databases were used identify unrelated families that fulfilled Amsterdam II (AMSII) criteria and/or Bethesda guidelines or suggestive a dominant colorectal (CRC) inheritance syndrome.We performed...

Prevalence of maturity-onset diabetes the young (MODY) is estimated between 1 and 2% all cases. In Latin-America little information has been described about frequency disease, perhaps due to limited access genetic studies.We present case a male patient with history two years fatigue, mild hyperglycemia intermittent polyuria, accompanied by recent weight loss. He was diagnosed initially as type 2 diabetes, but in follow-up diabetes. required relatively low doses insulin evaluated...

Pathogenic variants of the &lt;i&gt;GATAD2B&lt;/i&gt; gene (1q21.3) are linked to intellectual disability autosomal dominant type 18 (MRD18; MIM 615074), characterized by dysmorphic features, psychomotor and language delay. We present an 11-year-old female patient with typical clinical characteristics MRD18. Chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) revealed a novel CNV, approximately 200 kb in size showed that &lt;i&gt;INTS3&lt;/i&gt; &lt;i&gt;SLC27A3&lt;/i&gt; genes completely deleted along...

This review shows us how discovery variants in our genome, this facilitated know with precision about mechanisms physiopathological, and hence recognize those target points susceptible modifications, through therapeutical strategies different palliative proposals, increase life expectancy, or improve qualities life. These therapies are diverse, using drugs for polygenic diseases, nutritional...

To understand the term genomic heterogeneity in prostate cancer, we must clonal evolution of as well knowing that it is a dynamic and evolutionary phenomenon. Knowing genome cancer not only allows us to have vision over time alterations occur during its different stages, but also learn about mechanisms metastasis. In addition, hereditary component evaluation patients be able identify if are dealing with family at risk.
