Q

PARP treatment for BRCA-related cancer targets which function of cell?

A

base excision repair

17
Q

A woman has BRCA2 and does not get PGD. Her child inherits a BRCA2 mutation from her, and a PALB2 mutation from dad – does the child’s risk of cancer differ from the mom’s?

A

yes, they have Fanconi Anemia, and thus increased risk of Leukemia, other blood-based or solid cancers, and also short stature/developmental abnormalities

18
Q

A jewish woman has a BRCA1 mutation. Her sister comes in. What do youtest the sister for?

A

All three common Jewish BRCA mutations

19
Q

the 5 Li-Fraumeni tumors

A

Breast, SBLA (sarcoma, brain, leukemia, childhood adrenocortical [ACC])

20
Q

Oophorectomy lowers ov ca risk by how much?

21
Q

Cowden – most common type of thyroid cancer associated?

A

Follicular, (almost never medullary)

22
Q

L’hermite duclos – what is it, and is it associated with any cancer syndromes?

A

gangliocytoma, Cowden syndrome

rare, presents in 30-40s, can present as hydrocephalus

23
Q

Which of these is not a minor criterion for Cowden?

a. Goiter
b. GI ganglioneuroma
c. Vascular anomalies in brain
d. Colon cancer

A

trick question, sucker! All are minor criteria (as of 1/8/16)

24
Q

Cowden: is a major criterion a biopsy-driven Lipoma or Trichlemomma?

A

Trichilemomma.

25
PALB2 is associated with increased risk of which two cancers?
breast, pancreatic
26
Attenuated FAP – is it associated with CHRPE? With upper GI cancers? Which? Any genotypephenotype relationships?
no CHRPE yes upper GI (thus need upper endoscopy) 5' and 3' mutations lead to more attenuated FAP vs regular FAP
27
Four actions of BRCA
DUCT - like, breast duct DNA repair Ubiquitination Cell cycle Transcription
28
Cowden - cancers?
BUTT (colon ca = minor criterion) Breast Uterine Thyroid
29
FAP gene?
APC
30
FAP cancers
