Their recommendation is based on evidence that screening does not reduce the risk of death from prostate cancer. Prostate cancer often develops very slowly and does not cause problems, while the cancer treatment can have severe side effects. The PCA3 test is considered to be more accurate, but screening may still result in men who would not have been harmed by the cancer itself suffering side effects from treatment. What do you think? Should all healthy men be screened for prostate cancer using the PCA3 or PSA test? Should people in general be screened to find out if they have a genetic risk for cancer or other diseases?arrow_forward

Patient II-4 has two copies of loss of function variant alleles (or is homozygous for loss-of-function variant 318 allele). Patient I-2 has one copy of loss of function variant and one copy of unaffected allele (is heterozygous for loss-of-function variant 318 allele). Patient II-1 has two copies of unaffected allele (or is homozygous for unaffected 318 allele). |-1 1-2 Il-1 Il-2 Il-3 |l-4 II-5 II-1 III-2 III-3 Based upon data above, what is the mode of inheritance for mouse model for pancreatic cancer?
