Extractions: Colorectal carcinoma (CRC) is one of the most common malignancies found in Western countries. In 2003 in the United States 150 000 new cases of CRC, were estimated but 50 to 60 thousands people died from CRC (1). Sporadic CRC account for approximately 80-85% of all new diagnoses (2). Familial colorectal cancer (the hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer-HNPCC and inherited polyposis syndromes) account for 10-15% of new cases (3-5). The inherited gastrointestinal polyposis syndromes account for approximately 1% of all CRC cases (6). They can be divided into adenomatous and hamartomatous syndromes. Adenomatous polyposis syndrome is familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) with three phenotypic variant of FAP: Gardner's syndrome, Turcot's syndrome and attenuated FAP. Hamartomatous polyposis syndromes are Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, Juvenile polyposis, Cowden's syndrome and Bannayan-Riley-Ruvalacaba syndrome. FAP accounts for about 1% of cases, and the inherited hamartomatous polyposis syndromes account for fewer than 0.1% of cases (3-5).

Extractions: Dr. Eng's interests are clinical cancer genetics and human cancer genetics. Her recent efforts in the laboratory have focused on the role of somatic genetic alterations in tumor stroma in sporadic breast carcinomas and head and neck cancers. This work may have broad implications not only for examining the pathogenesis of common cancers but may reveal novel targets and novel compartments germane for diagnosis, prognosis, therapy and prevention. This fundamental research is aimed at not only mechanism resolution but also hopes to identify novel targets for therapeutic and preventative drug development. The genetics of the RET proto-oncogene are pursued for clinical translational purposes for MEN 2, sporadic neuroendocrine tumors, and Hirschsprung disease. Towards those ends, genotype-phenotype analyses and genotype-prognosis analyses are being performed. Examination of common low penetrance variants in sporadic medullary thyroid carcinoma, pheochromocytoma and Hirschsprung disease is also being pursued in the hope of identifying common alleles for predisposition.

Extractions: In the News Genetic Changes in PTEN Gene in 3 Children With an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Extreme Macrocephaly A recent report from a collaborative group of researchers suggests that a subset of individuals with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) may have a genetic change (mutation) in a gene called PTEN. PTEN (pronounced P-10) is an abbreviation for a phosphatase gene. It is a tumor suppressor gene, meaning the gene is involved with controlling when cells divide. For this study, researchers selected 18 patients (13 males and 5 females) who had a diagnosis of an autism spectrum disorder and a head size above the average 90th percentile of what is expected for their age (macrocephaly). They then tested the 18 individuals to see if any had a change in the PTEN gene. Three of the 18 patients were found to have a mutation in the PTEN gene. In all three patients, the genetic changes were seen in the child, but not in the parents. This suggests that the changes are likely new mutations, changes that occurred as random events at a very early stage of fetal development, but not inherited from either parent. The researchers of this study suggest that genetic testing of the PTEN gene changes (mutations) be considered for patients with autistic behavior and extreme macrocephaly [large head size]. However, more research is needed to determine what percentage of individuals with an autism spectrum disorder has changes in the PTEN gene. Furthermore, these particular mutations have never been seen in any other individuals, so it is hard to say exactly what the findings mean. Non-autistic individuals may also have similar changes in the PTEN gene, but simply have not yet been tested for it.
