However, only a paucity of data exists on the pathology of breast cancers (BCs) in men with BRCA1/2 mutations. Using the largest available dataset, we determined whether MBCs arising in BRCA1/2 mutation carriers display specific pathologic features and whether these features differ from those of BRCA1/2 female BCs (FBCs). Methods We characterised the pathologic features of 419 BRCA1/2 MBCs and, using logistic regression analysis, contrasted those with data from 9675 BRCA1/2 FBCs and with population-based data from 6351 MBCs in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. Results Among BRCA2 MBCs, grade significantly decreased with increasing age at diagnosis (P = 0.005). Compared with BRCA2 FBCs, BRCA2 MBCs were of significantly higher stage (P for trend = 2 × 10-5) and higher grade (P for trend = 0.005) and were more likely to be oestrogen receptor-positive [odds ratio (OR) 10.59; 95 \% confidence interval (CI) 5.15-21.80] and progesterone receptor-positive (OR 5.04; 95 \% CI 3.17-8.04). With the exception of grade, similar patterns of associations emerged when we compared BRCA1 MBCs and FBCs. BRCA2 MBCs also presented with higher grade than MBCs from the SEER database (P for trend = 4 × 10-12). Conclusions On the basis of the largest series analysed to date, our results show that BRCA1/2 MBCs display distinct pathologic characteristics compared with BRCA1/2 FBCs, and we identified a specific BRCA2-associated MBC phenotype characterised by a variable suggesting greater biological aggressiveness (i.e., high histologic grade). These findings could lead to the development of gender-specific risk prediction models and guide clinical strategies appropriate for MBC management.}, language = {en} } @article{ForchertPotapovaPanettaetal.2022, author = {Forchert, Leandra and Potapova, Ekaterina and Panetta, Valentina and Dramburg, Stephanie and Perna, Serena and Posa, Daniela and Resch-Marat, Yvonne and Lupinek, Christian and Rohrbach, Alexander and Grabenhenrich, Linus and Icke, Katja and Bauer, Carl-Peter and Hoffman, Ute and Forster, Johannes and Zepp, Fred and Schuster, Antje and Wahn, Ulrich and Keil, Thomas and Lau, Susanne and Vrtala, Susanne and Valenta, Rudolf and Matricardi, Paolo Maria}, title = {Der p 23-specific IgE response throughout childhood and its association with allergic disease: A birth cohort study}, series = {Pediatric Allergy and Immunology}, volume = {33}, journal = {Pediatric Allergy and Immunology}, number = {7}, doi = {10.1111/pai.13829}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-287181}, year = {2022}, abstract = {Background The Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus molecule Der p 23 is a major allergen whose clinical relevance has been shown in cross-sectional studies. We longitudinally analysed the trajectory of Der p 23-specific IgE antibody (sIgE) levels throughout childhood and youth, their early-life determinants and their clinical relevance for allergic rhinitis and asthma. Methods We obtained sera and clinical data of 191 participants of the German Multicentre Allergy Study, a prospective birth cohort. Serum samples from birth to 20 years of age with sIgE reactivity to Der p 23 in a customised semiquantitative microarray were newly analysed with a singleplex quantitative assay. Early mite exposure was assessed by measuring the average content of Der p 1 in house dust at 6 and 18 months. Results Der p 23-sIgE levels were detected at least once in 97/191 participants (51\%). Prevalence of Der p 23 sensitisation and mean sIgE levels increased until age 10 years, plateaued until age 13 years and were lowest at age 20 years. Asthma, allergic rhinitis (AR) and atopic dermatitis (AD) were more prevalent in Der p 23-sensitised children, including those with monomolecular but persistent sensitisation (11/97, 11\%). A higher exposure to mites in infancy and occurrence of AD before 5 years of age preceded the onset of Der p 23 sensitisation, which in turn preceded a higher incidence of asthma. Conclusions Der p 23 sensitisation peaks in late childhood and then decreases. It is preceded by early mite exposure and AD. Asthma and AR can occur in patients persistently sensitised to Der p 23 as the only mite allergen, suggesting the inclusion of molecular testing of Der p 23-sIgE for subjects with clinical suspicion of HDM allergy but without sIgE to other major D.pt. allergens.}, language = {en} }
