What is an allergy? An allergy is an exaggerated reaction by the immune system in response to exposure to certain foreign substances. The response is exaggerated because these foreign substances usually are seen as harmless by the immune system in nonallergic individuals and do not cause a reaction in them. In allergic individuals, the body […]
What Is HIV? HIV ( human immunodeficiency virus ) is a virus that attacks cells that help the body fight infection, making a person more vulnerable to other infections and diseases. It is spread by contact with certain bodily fluids of a person with HIV (human immunodeficiency virus), most commonly during unprotected sex, or through […]
What is the BRCA Gene Mutation? BRCA1 and BRCA2 are genes that suppress malignant tumours (cancer) in humans. When these genes change (become mutated) they do not suppress tumours as they should. BRCA1 and BRCA2 are tumour suppressor genes, which means that they keep cells from growing too rapidly. So people with BRCA1 and BRCA2 […]
Genomics: Microarrays contain single-stranded oligonucleotides with sequences from the human genome to tile the area of interest specified to the surface. The relatively small scope of clinical utility and the slow early uptake can be attributed to the lack of clinical evidence supporting the use of medical genomics in multifactorial diseases. Indeed, as clinically important […]
What is Exome Sequencing? Exome sequencing, which sequences the protein-coding region of the genome, has been rapidly applied to variant discovery in research settings, and recent increases in the accuracy have enabled the development of clinical exome sequencing (CES) for mutation identification in patients with suspected genetic diseases. Exome sequencing, also known as whole-exome sequencing […]
What is NIPT? Noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT), sometimes called a noninvasive prenatal screening test (NIPS), is a method of determining the risk that the fetus will be born with specific genetic abnormalities. It has been a little over two years since noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT) was introduced as part of prenatal care to screen high-risk […]
Test Name DNA Test Test type A paternity DNA test is a test that compares a child’s DNA to that of a man to determine if the man is the biological father of the child. The test typically involves collecting DNA samples from the child, the alleged father, and the child’s mother, and then comparing […]
Recently, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Lynparza (Olapali) for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer carrying the germline BRCA gene mutation (gBRCAm) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) negative. Patient. This is the third indication that Olapali was approved in the United States. In the United States, Olapali has been used […]
