Gliomas are a heterogeneous type of central nervous system tumor. The etiology of glioma formation remains elusive, with approximately 5% of gliomas being familial, underscoring the significance of understanding genetic susceptibility in glioma development. In this study, a dual germline PTCH2 mutation [Ser391*, Leu104Pro] was identified in a family with a history of glioma, and sequencing data from WES/SimcereDx Neuro-Onco 360 including 910 Chinese patients with glioma and 1666 patients with solid tumors were analyzed.

Using rare cancer predisposition alleles derived from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and high cancer prevalence (14% of participants) in All of Us (version 6), we assessed the impact of these rare alleles on cancer occurrence in six broad groups of genetic similarity provided by All of Us: African/African American (AFR), Admixed American/Latino (AMR), East Asian (EAS), European (EUR), Middle Eastern (MID), or South Asian (SAS). We observed that germline susceptibility to cancer consistently replicates in EUR-like participants but less so in other participants. We found that All of Us participants from the EUR (p = 1.

Prostate cancer (PC) represents one of the leading causes of cancer-related morbidity and mortality in men, requiring further understanding to improve diagnosis and treatment. Germline BRCA1/2 mutations, primarily identified in other hereditary cancers, confer an increased risk of developing PC; thus, testing is essential to assess cancer risk, guiding preventive strategies and screening. Recently, somatic BRCA1/2 mutations have emerged as pivotal predictive biomarkers of responsiveness to the poly ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitors.

Accumulating evidence suggests that inherited melanoma is not rare and approx. one in seven individuals with melanoma has clinically relevant hereditable cancer-predisposing and/or -susceptibility variant(s). Concerning its germline genetic background, genetic screening aims to identify either variants of predisposing genes with high penetrance or variants of susceptibility genes with medium or low penetrance.

Despite the fact that there are published case reports and model work providing evidence of inflammation in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disorders (CMTs), in clinical practice, CMT and inflammatory neuropathies are always classified as two separate groups of disorders. This sharp separation of chronic neuropathies into two groups has serious clinical implications. As a consequence, the patients harboring CMT mutations are practically excluded from pharmacological anti-inflammatory treatments.
