概括
与一般人群相比,患有神经纤维素炎1型 (NF1) 的女性在怀孕期间和之后患癌症的风险更高. 然而,怀孕不会进一步提高NF1患者的风险.
科学领域:
- 在瘤学瘤学.
- 遗传学 遗传学 是一个
- 生殖健康 生殖健康
背景情况:
- 1型神经纤维素瘤 (NF1) 显著增加了癌症的风险.
- 怀孕可能会影响患有NF1.1的女性良性神经纤维瘤的生长.
- 怀孕对NF1患者癌症风险的影响尚不清楚.
研究的目的:
- 为了调查怀孕和癌症发病率之间的关系,在妇女的NF1.
- 为了比较怀孕的NF1患者的癌症风险,与对照组和非怀孕的NF1患者进行比较.
- 为了确定生育患有NF1的孩子是否会影响没有NF1的母亲的癌症风险.
主要方法:
- 使用芬兰医疗出生登记册用于NF1队列和对照中的妊娠数据.
- 从芬兰癌症登记处提取了癌症数据.
- 计算标准化发病率 (SIR) 来评估癌症风险.
主要成果:
- 在136名患有NF1的妇女中观察到263例怀孕,在1720名对照中观察到3176例怀孕.
- 与对照组 (SIR 0.25) 相比,NF1组在怀孕期间/怀孕后癌症发病率较高 (SIR 6.44).
- 怀孕后NF1女性的癌症发病率 (SIR 7.54) 与20-49岁NF1女性 (SIR 8.63) 的癌症发病率相当.
结论:
- 怀孕相关癌症发病率在NF1比一般人群高,但与非怀孕的NF1女性没有显著差异.
- 出生一个患有NF1的孩子不会改变没有NF1的母亲的癌症风险.

Cancer Prevention
6.0K
Several factors can increase the risk of cancer in an individual. About 50% of cancer cases can be prevented by adopting a healthy lifestyle, regular exercise, eating healthy, and following a modest cancer prevention diet. Epidemiological studies have consistently shown that populations with vegetable and fruit-rich diets have reduced the incidence of cancer. On the other hand, populations who have a diet rich in animal fat, red meat, junk food, or high calories are predisposed to cancer.

Psychoneuroimmunology: Diabetes and Cancer
21
Chronic stress has been linked to both the onset and progression of serious health conditions, including Type 2 diabetes and cancer. Type 2 diabetes, a widespread chronic illness, is closely associated with obesity and insulin resistance, both of which often worsen under stress. Studies indicate that men experiencing high levels of chronic stress face a 45% higher risk of developing diabetes compared to those with minimal stress. Stress triggers physiological responses that elevate blood...

Cancer
47.4K
Cancers arise due to mutations in genes involved in the regulation of cell division, which leads to unrestricted cell proliferation. Modern science and medicine have made great strides in the understanding and treatment of cancer, including eradicating cancer in some patients. However, there is still no cure for cancer. This is largely due to the fact that cancer is a large group of many diseases.

Cancer-Critical Genes I: Proto-oncogenes
8.7K
Genes usually encode proteins necessary for the proper functioning of a healthy cell. Mutations can often cause changes to the gene expression pattern, thereby altering the phenotype.
When the function of certain critical genes, especially those involved in cell cycle regulation and cell growth signaling cascades, gets disrupted, it upsets the cell cycle progression. Such cells with unchecked cell cycles start proliferating uncontrollably and eventually develop into tumors.
Such genes that act...

mTOR Signaling and Cancer Progression
3.7K
The mammalian target of rapamycin or mTOR protein was discovered in 1994 due to its direct interaction with rapamycin. The protein gets its name from a yeast homolog called TOR. The mTOR protein complex in mammalian cells plays a major role in balancing anabolic processes such as the synthesis of proteins, lipids, and nucleotides and catabolic processes, such as autophagy in response to environmental cues, such as availability of nutrients and growth factors.

The Retinoblastoma Gene
4.0K
Tumor suppressor genes are normal genes that can slow down cell division, repair DNA mistakes, or program the cells for apoptosis in case of irreparable damage. Hence, they play an essential role in preventing the proliferation of damaged cells.
The first-ever tumor suppressor gene called Rb was identified in retinoblastoma - a rare eye tumor in children. In inherited forms of the disease, a child inherits one defective copy of the Rb gene, which predisposes them to retinoblastoma. However,...
