    Communication With Clinicians and Relatives About Cascade Genetic Testing in Cancer Patients With Germline Pathogenic Variants. (PubMed, JCO Precis Oncol)
    Patients with cancer are motivated to communicate PV results to relatives. However, few clinicians are involved and relatives' testing remains low. Novel care delivery models are needed to advance cascade testing and precision risk reduction.

    Hereditary breast cancer : Syndromes, pathology, clinical aspects (PubMed, Pathologie (Heidelb))
    There are also therapeutic implications, such as the use of PARP inhibitors in BRCA1/2-associated HER2-negative breast cancer. Predictive genetic testing may be considered for relatives as well as intensified early detection programs and risk-reducing surgery, if necessary.Close interdisciplinary cooperation is therefore crucial in order to identify patients with possible hereditary tumorigenesis at an early stage and to enable an individualized therapy and follow-up care strategy.

    Particulate Hexavalent Chromium Inhibits RAD51 Paralogs Necessary for RAD51 Filament Formation and Stabilization During Homologous Recombination Repair. (PubMed, Occup Health (Auckl))
    Cr(VI) also inhibited overall RAD51D protein expression, as well as its interaction with RAD51. These findings suggest that Cr(VI) inhibits all RAD51 paralogs, but RAD51D might be an early target of Cr(VI), leading to the loss of RAD51 filament formation and function and the overall inhibition of homologous recombination repair.

    Mammary Duct Ectasia Presenting As MRI Non-mass Enhancement in a RAD51C Carrier With Pituitary Adenoma. (PubMed, Cureus)
    Her history included hyperprolactinemia from a growth hormone- and prolactin-positive pituitary adenoma diagnosed at age 41 and treated surgically, raising the possibility of an endocrine contribution to ductal dilatation and secretory stasis. This case emphasizes the importance of radiologic-pathologic correlation to avoid overdiagnosis while highlighting a potential link between long-standing hyperprolactinemia and mammary duct ectasia in susceptible patients.

    Germline Pathogenic Variants in Breast Cancer-Predisposing Genes Among Early-Onset Female and Male Breast Cancer in Ethiopia. (PubMed, JCO Glob Oncol)
    Genetic predisposition plays an important role among young women and men in the study setting, with nearly one in four patients carrying a PV. The results call for further research and interventions targeting individuals at high risk, with the long-term potential of reduced morbidity and mortality.

    Cancer mutations in RAD51 and its paralogues. (PubMed, PLoS One)
    A comparison of mutations reported on COSMIC with those reported on ClinVar revealed that many mutations primarily in RAD51C and RAD51D are also hereditary. Thus, it appears that an apparent low level of RAD51 mutations in cancer cells is compensated by an increase in paralogues mutations.

    Results of breast cancer risk assessment and hereditary cancer genetic testing in community obstetrics and gynaecology practice following a prospective quality Improvement initiative. (PubMed, J Obstet Gynaecol)
    Most patients undergoing genetic testing did not carry an inherited mutation; however, over one-third of those without a mutation had lifetime breast cancer risk ≥20% based on Tyrer-Cuzick and/or CRS. These findings underscore the importance of routine HCRA and individualised management based on comprehensive risk assessment.
