BRCA1 and BRCA2 Mutations & Cancer (Types of Cancer, and Who’s Most At Risk)
BRCA1 and BRCA2 are genes involved in DNA repair and other important functions. However, mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 increase the risk of different types of cancer, including breast and ovarian cancer. In this lesson, we discuss the roles of normal functioning BRCA, different patient populations most at risk, different mutations, and different types of associated cancer.

The Role of BRCA1 in Cancer
BRCA1 is an integral protein in the DNA repair pathway. Inherited alterations in the structure of BRCA1 cause interruption of the DNA repair process, which over time, lead to accumulation of more and more DNA damage in cells. This greatly increases the risk for cancer. Women afflicted with these inherited changes in BRCA1 face a lifetime of constant surveillance and medical intervention to fight the possibility of cancer developing. At the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, we are at the forefront of research into the myriad mechanisms causing cancer. We also provide the world's best cancer diagnostics, care, medical advice and management and psychological support.

What is BRCA1 and BRCA2?
Women who have no family history of breast cancer and don’t carry the BRCA1 or 2 gene mutation, have only a 12% chance of getting breast cancer in their lifetime.
But, women with BRCA1 have about a 65% chance of developing it by the time they turn 70; the likelihood is a little lower for women with BRCA2 at 45%.
Now that you know how important BRCA1 & BRCA2 is and how it affects your cancer risk, what exactly is it?
Scottsdale Healthcare’s Gynecologic Oncologist Dr. Mike Janicek explains what BRCA1 & BRCA2 is in the video below.

Understanding BRCA Mutations and Risk
BRCA1 and BRCA2 are breast cancer gene mutations. When a mutation occurs, the gene doesn’t function properly, DNA errors don’t get repaired, and the risk of cancer increases. A genetic counselor will review your family histories, discuss the testing process, and explain benefits as well as the risks of learning about a genetic mutation that may increase your cancer risk.

BRCA mutation
This breast cancer lecture explains about the brca gene (brca1 and brca2 mechanism) mutation which leads to the development of breast cancer.
A BRCA mutation is a mutation in both of the genes BRCA1 and BRCA2. Detrimental mutations in these tumor suppressor genes produce a hereditary breast-ovarian melanoma syndrome in affected families. Mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 are distinctive, and breast cancer is relatively original, so these mutations consequently account for only five to ten percent of all breast cancer cases in women.
1000s of distinctive types of mutations in these genes have been recognized. Excessive-danger mutations, which disable an primary error-free DNA repair procedure (homology directed repair), tremendously develop the character's threat of setting up breast cancer, ov...

BRCA gene test questioned after unnecessary surgeries
Seven women in one family had major surgery after a widely used genetic test, taken by hundreds of thousands of people, showed a high cancer risk. One of them says she was left debilitated and unable to have more children. But, years later, the family has learned the results of that BRCA test might have been wrong. Jamie Yuccas reports.

Therapeutic Supports for Young BRCA1/BRCA2 patients | Jessica Baglieri | TEDxCarletonUniversity
In her talk, Jessica Baglieri introduces the audience to BRCA1/BRCA2 genetic mutations, shares what it is like to receive a diagnosis for one of these mutations, and discusses the need for more mental and physical support for those who have these mutations Jessica Baglieri is currently conducting research on the lived experiences of young BRCA patients and their needs. Baglieri hopes to combine her lived experience, experience as a youth mental health worker, and her research on exploring the mental and emotional needs of young women with a BRCA1/2 diagnosis to create a system that better supports the holistic needs of young BRCA patients. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/...

Why BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations lead preferentially to cancers of the breast and ovary is not identified, but lack of BRCA1 function seems to result in non-useful x-chromosome inactivation. No longer all mutations are excessive-chance; some show up to be harmless editions. The cancer hazard related to any given mutation varies greatly and depends on the distinctive variety and area of the mutation and in all probability different person reasons.
Ladies with unsafe mutations in either BRCA1 or BRCA2 have risk of breast melanoma that is about five occasions the average chance, and a hazard of ovarian cancer that's about ten to thirty occasions common. BRCA1 mutations typically confer a higher danger of breast and ovarian melanoma in females than BRCA2 mutations. Having a high-threat mutation does no longer guarantee that the girl will increase any sort of cancer, or warranty that any melanoma that appears was once genuinely induced through the mutation, alternatively than every other element, like alcohol consumption.

Seven women in one family had major surgery after a widely used genetic test, taken by hundreds of thousands of people, showed a high cancer risk. One of them says she was left debilitated and unable to have more children. But, years later, the family has learned the results of that BRCA test might have been wrong. Jamie Yuccas reports.

What is BRCA1 and BRCA2?
Women who have no family history of breast cancer and don’t carry the BRCA1 or 2 gene mutation, have only a 12% chance of getting breast cancer in their lifetime.
But, women with BRCA1 have about a 65% chance of developing it by the time they turn 70; the likelihood is a little lower for women with BRCA2 at 45%.
Now that you know how important BRCA1 & BRCA2 is and how it affects your cancer risk, what exactly is it?
Scottsdale Healthcare’s Gynecologic Oncologist Dr. Mike Janicek explains what BRCA1 & BRCA2 is in the video below.

Chromosome 13 - BRCA2 and DNA Damage
EXPLORE THE RI ADVENT CALENDAR: http://rigb.org.uk/advent
Mistakes in the "recipe" of your DNA -- if bits of code go missing, or get swapped or damaged -- could spell the difference between life and death. DNA often gets damaged by everyday processes within our bodies, but also from external factors such as UV radiation or tobacco smoke. Luckily, our bodies are well equipped to fix this damage thanks, in part, to the BRCA2 gene, found on chromosome 13.
BRCA2 encodes for a large protein which carries out repair work on damaged DNA. It's no surprise then that if the BRCA2 is faulty, or missing, our cells can't repair themselves properly. As a result, the damaged DNA builds up and this can lead to cancer.
In turns out, however, that faults on BRCA2 aren't necessarily such an advantage to c...

As a young woman, I lost my mother to breast cancer and watched my father battle prostate
cancer. With a family history that includes three generations of women affected by breast
cancer, I decided to undergo genetic testing and discovered I was BRCA 2 positive, a leading
marker for the disease. I believed I was next. I was scared. I had questions, and I needed
answers.
After undergoing extensive cancer monitoring for a decade with my high-risk oncologist, I
sought out a team of doctors to discuss other options. Together, we developed a plan to
prevent a possible occurrence of cancer – a bilateral prophylactic mastectomy, which was
successfully performed in December 2016.
Life after surgery has had its challenges and has been a humbling experience. The physical
journey for me was not bad, but the recovery took time. I had to be patient and trust the
healing process.
I had to be patient with myself and build my stamina and strength. My mind would tell me I
could GO, GO, GO, but my body said NO, NO, NO! I had to learn to listen to my body and
my doctors, so I could recover safely and properly. There were times I felt so helpless, trying
to help my two-year-old understand why I couldn’t hold her, pick her up or take her to school
and ballet class. Each day it gets better, and eventually, you discover your new normal. I
attribute my quick recovery to living an active and healthy lifestyle.
I was not ready for the emotional journey. There were moments I felt less than a woman
because I felt my breasts defined me. I learned to remind myself that my mind, character, and
strength, define my womanhood. I have learned to embrace my scars because they tell my
story...and that is, I have been “gracefully broken” and rebuilt with strength. On this journey,
I have encountered many physical, mental, and emotional obstacles and challenges, but along
the way, I have discovered my strength and purpose, and all glory goes to my Lord and Savior
Jesus Christ. Three years later, I feel empowered, more confident, and I know that this
decision didn’t define me, it refined me.
TALK
In my talk, I will discuss my family history of cancer, my experience as a young caregiver,
which led me to genetic testing and the impact it had (has) in my life. I will share my most
vulnerable thoughts after losing my mother, hearing of my father’s diagnosis, and finding out I
was BRCA2 +.
I will share my 10 years of aggressive monitoring and what led me to have a Preventive
Double Mastectomy, and the emotional and mental impact it had on me (my womanhood,
motherhood, my self-confidence, inability to breastfeed, intimacy, etc.)
Finally, I will discuss how I overcame my parent's diagnosis, navigating through my own
journey, and how I have been positioned to Educate, Equip, and Empower others who have
been impacted by cancer (fighters, survivors, previvors, caregivers, and supporters).
With my long family history of breast cancer, I wanted to use my experience to write a
children’s book, with the goal of helping youth understand the disease and its impact on the
women in their lives.
My book titled “The Big Discovery” is an educational tool that helps families, especially
children, navigate the difficult journey that breast cancer presents. I was inspired to write this
after my journey as a young child with two parents with cancer and my own journey as a
BRCA2 previvor, and mom. The book’s foreword was written by board-certified breast
surgeon, Sandra Templeton, M.D., of Houston Methodist Breast Surgery Partners. Ashley is a proud BRCA2 previvor and was a teen caregiver of two parents with cancer. During her journey, she authored “The Big Discovery.” A children’s book that facilitates and guides families through a breast cancer diagnosis. Ashley and her journey have been featured in Voyage Houston Magazine, Women’s Health Magazine as well as several other magazines, blogs, and newspapers.

https://wn.com/The_Generational_Impact_Of_Cancer_Brca2_Positive_|_Ashley_Dedmon_|_Tedxlsctomball
As a young woman, I lost my mother to breast cancer and watched my father battle prostate
cancer. With a family history that includes three generations of women affected by breast
cancer, I decided to undergo genetic testing and discovered I was BRCA 2 positive, a leading
marker for the disease. I believed I was next. I was scared. I had questions, and I needed
answers.
After undergoing extensive cancer monitoring for a decade with my high-risk oncologist, I
sought out a team of doctors to discuss other options. Together, we developed a plan to
prevent a possible occurrence of cancer – a bilateral prophylactic mastectomy, which was
successfully performed in December 2016.
Life after surgery has had its challenges and has been a humbling experience. The physical
journey for me was not bad, but the recovery took time. I had to be patient and trust the
healing process.
I had to be patient with myself and build my stamina and strength. My mind would tell me I
could GO, GO, GO, but my body said NO, NO, NO! I had to learn to listen to my body and
my doctors, so I could recover safely and properly. There were times I felt so helpless, trying
to help my two-year-old understand why I couldn’t hold her, pick her up or take her to school
and ballet class. Each day it gets better, and eventually, you discover your new normal. I
attribute my quick recovery to living an active and healthy lifestyle.
I was not ready for the emotional journey. There were moments I felt less than a woman
because I felt my breasts defined me. I learned to remind myself that my mind, character, and
strength, define my womanhood. I have learned to embrace my scars because they tell my
story...and that is, I have been “gracefully broken” and rebuilt with strength. On this journey,
I have encountered many physical, mental, and emotional obstacles and challenges, but along
the way, I have discovered my strength and purpose, and all glory goes to my Lord and Savior
Jesus Christ. Three years later, I feel empowered, more confident, and I know that this
decision didn’t define me, it refined me.
TALK
In my talk, I will discuss my family history of cancer, my experience as a young caregiver,
which led me to genetic testing and the impact it had (has) in my life. I will share my most
vulnerable thoughts after losing my mother, hearing of my father’s diagnosis, and finding out I
was BRCA2 +.
I will share my 10 years of aggressive monitoring and what led me to have a Preventive
Double Mastectomy, and the emotional and mental impact it had on me (my womanhood,
motherhood, my self-confidence, inability to breastfeed, intimacy, etc.)
Finally, I will discuss how I overcame my parent's diagnosis, navigating through my own
journey, and how I have been positioned to Educate, Equip, and Empower others who have
been impacted by cancer (fighters, survivors, previvors, caregivers, and supporters).
With my long family history of breast cancer, I wanted to use my experience to write a
children’s book, with the goal of helping youth understand the disease and its impact on the
women in their lives.
My book titled “The Big Discovery” is an educational tool that helps families, especially
children, navigate the difficult journey that breast cancer presents. I was inspired to write this
after my journey as a young child with two parents with cancer and my own journey as a
BRCA2 previvor, and mom. The book’s foreword was written by board-certified breast
surgeon, Sandra Templeton, M.D., of Houston Methodist Breast Surgery Partners. Ashley is a proud BRCA2 previvor and was a teen caregiver of two parents with cancer. During her journey, she authored “The Big Discovery.” A children’s book that facilitates and guides families through a breast cancer diagnosis. Ashley and her journey have been featured in Voyage Houston Magazine, Women’s Health Magazine as well as several other magazines, blogs, and newspapers. In addition, she has appeared on FOX 26, RADIO ONE, Facebook Live, and podcast. Her speaking experience consists of a keynote speaker, guest speaker, panelist, emcee, and moderator.

EXPLORE THE RI ADVENT CALENDAR: http://rigb.org.uk/advent
Mistakes in the "recipe" of your DNA -- if bits of code go missing, or get swapped or damaged -- could spell the difference between life and death. DNA often gets damaged by everyday processes within our bodies, but also from external factors such as UV radiation or tobacco smoke. Luckily, our bodies are well equipped to fix this damage thanks, in part, to the BRCA2 gene, found on chromosome 13.
BRCA2 encodes for a large protein which carries out repair work on damaged DNA. It's no surprise then that if the BRCA2 is faulty, or missing, our cells can't repair themselves properly. As a result, the damaged DNA builds up and this can lead to cancer.
In turns out, however, that faults on BRCA2 aren't necessarily such an advantage to cancer cells. As their BRCA2 gene is faulty, the only remaining "tool" in a cancer cell's molecular repair kit is another gene known as PARP. Dr Kat Arney from Cancer Research UK explains how by using drugs to block PARP function, scientists are hoping to prevent cancer cells from repairing themselves, causing them to die off. Whilst developing cancer treatments is certainly no piece of cake, drugs with PARP inhibitors are already showing great promise in trials.
You can find out more about research into PARP inhibitors on the Cancer Research UK science blog at the following links:

BRCA mutation
This breast cancer lecture explains about the brca gene (brca1 and brca2 mechanism) mutation which leads to the development of breast cancer.
A BRCA mutation is a mutation in both of the genes BRCA1 and BRCA2. Detrimental mutations in these tumor suppressor genes produce a hereditary breast-ovarian melanoma syndrome in affected families. Mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 are distinctive, and breast cancer is relatively original, so these mutations consequently account for only five to ten percent of all breast cancer cases in women.
1000s of distinctive types of mutations in these genes have been recognized. Excessive-danger mutations, which disable an primary error-free DNA repair procedure (homology directed repair), tremendously develop the character's threat of setting up breast cancer, ov...

Understanding BRCA Mutations and Risk
BRCA1 and BRCA2 are breast cancer gene mutations. When a mutation occurs, the gene doesn’t function properly, DNA errors don’t get repaired, and the risk of cancer increases. A genetic counselor will review your family histories, discuss the testing process, and explain benefits as well as the risks of learning about a genetic mutation that may increase your cancer risk.

BRCA gene test questioned after unnecessary surgeries
Seven women in one family had major surgery after a widely used genetic test, taken by hundreds of thousands of people, showed a high cancer risk. One of them says she was left debilitated and unable to have more children. But, years later, the family has learned the results of that BRCA test might have been wrong. Jamie Yuccas reports.

1000s of distinctive types of mutations in these genes have been recognized. Excessive-danger mutations, which disable an primary error-free DNA repair procedure (homology directed repair), tremendously develop the character's threat of setting up breast cancer, ovarian melanoma and specific different cancers. Why BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations lead preferentially to cancers of the breast and ovary is not identified, but lack of BRCA1 function seems to result in non-useful x-chromosome inactivation. No longer all mutations are excessive-chance; some show up to be harmless editions. The cancer hazard related to any given mutation varies greatly and depends on the distinctive variety and area of the mutation and in all probability different person reasons.
Ladies with unsafe mutations in either BRCA1 or BRCA2 have risk of breast melanoma that is about five occasions the average chance, and a hazard of ovarian cancer that's about ten to thirty occasions common. BRCA1 mutations typically confer a higher danger of breast and ovarian melanoma in females than BRCA2 mutations. Having a high-threat mutation does no longer guarantee that the girl will increase any sort of cancer, or warranty that any melanoma that appears was once genuinely induced through the mutation, alternatively than every other element, like alcohol consumption.

Genetic counselor Joyce Turner, MSC, CGC, provides an overview of BRCA genes and their relationship to breast and ovarian cancer. She explains how each of us inherits BRCA genes from our parents, the role of those genes and what happens if we inherit a gene mutation. She also talks about how genetic counseling and testing can give a woman information she can use to make decisions about her health.

__________________________________
Questions for your Breast Surgeon and Medical Oncologist:
1. Do I qualify for BRCA genetic testing?
2. If so, will you order genetic testing for me?
3. Would genetic testing before surgery change our plans?
4. What is the downside of BRCA testing?
5. Will you also order “Multi-Gene Panel”?
6. What is “The Breast Cancer Gene?”
The BRCA (Breast Cancer) gene is commonly referred to as “The Breast Cancer Gene.” If someone inherits a broken version of this gene (known as a “mutation”) at conception, they carry a significantly increased lifetime risk of breast cancer and ovarian cancer. This gene “mutation” can come from either their mother or father. Most breast cancers are not the result of BRCA mutations. In fact, it is estimated that BRCA and similar genetic mutations cause only 5 to 10% of all breast cancers.
If you are a woman and test “positive” for a BRCA mutation, your physicians can advise you how to reduce your risk of developing breast and ovarian cancer in the future. There are excellent prevention strategies to lessen your cancer risk. There are also enhanced screening options to detect cancers earlier when they are more curable. You must be your own advocate to find out if you are a candidate for genetic testing.
This is the condition that was widely reported in the media when celebrity Angelina Jolie announced that she had mastectomies and reconstruction of both her breasts to reduce her personal risk of developing breast cancer. Although she did not have breast cancer, she tested positive for the BRCA mutation. She underwent testing because she had a strong history of breast and ovarian cancer in her family.
Should I ask about BRCA testing before surgery?
You need to ask yourself this question, “If I have cancer and carry a BRCA mutation, would I change my mind about surgery and have both breasts removed to reduce my risk of having another new breast cancer in the future?” If the answer is yes or maybe, you should consider undergoing the testing before your recommended surgery. If the answer is no, you can undergo testing after surgery, if desired.
Both men and women are at equal risk for carrying the BRCA mutation. Women are more commonly identified as “High Risk” for BRCA mutations because they may have been diagnosed with breast or ovarian cancer and are more often asked if they have a family history of these cancers. But it is important that men also learn if they are at high risk for cancer causing mutations and pursue genetic counseling. You may qualify for BRCA genetic testing if you have:
Below is a very simplified list of the most common qualifying risk factors.
*Breast cancer diagnosed at 50 or younger
*Ovarian cancer at any age
*A family member with a “BRCA mutation”
*A strong family history of breast, ovarian, prostate or pancreatic cancer
*Breast cancer in both breasts
*Male breast cancer at any age
*“Triple negative” breast cancer before age 60
*Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry and breast or pancreatic cancer
We list detailed references and links on our website, www.breastcancercourse.org to several national guidelines. Always obtain formal genetic counseling with a qualified physician or certified genetic counselor before undergoing BRCA and genetic testing..
Multi-Gene Panel Testing
Although the majority of “hereditary” breast cancer is likely due to the BRCA genes, other gene mutations could be present that also cause an increased risk for breast and other types of cancers. “Multi-Gene Panel Tests” evaluate multiple other cancer-causing genes at the same time as BRCA testing. We recommend considering “Panel Testing” be included with BRCA testing. There is usually no additional cost for adding this test to BRCA genetic screening.
What are the downsides to genetic testing?
It is important to note that if someone carries the BRCA mutation, that does not mean they will develop cancer. Genetic testing can open a “Pandora’s Box” of unanswerable questions. Everyone has a unique philosophy of life and belief system. Many decline genetic testing for personal reasons. Unfortunately, too many men and women at risk for genetic mutations are never offered genetic counselling. A recent study in the Journal of the American Medical Association found that many women with newly diagnosed breast cancer and at a high risk for genetic mutations are not offered genetic counseling.

Seven women in one family had major surgery after a widely used genetic test, taken by hundreds of thousands of people, showed a high cancer risk. One of them says she was left debilitated and unable to have more children. But, years later, the family has learned the results of that BRCA test might have been wrong. Jamie Yuccas reports.
