I got my DNA results back from CircleDNA! There was so much more analysis than I expected! Not only is my ancestry listed (100% European 🤣 ), but there are dozens of other fascinating reports. You can really use these to optimize your life planning. From which nutrients I should be focusing on, to outlining the strengths and weaknesses of my personality, I feel much better prepared to tackle the future. One thing I found reassuring was that I'm at a very low risk for cancer and other genetic diseases. The DNA test also confirmed my suspicion that I'm a natural night owl, and require around 9 hours of sleep to function normally 😴 . You can literally spend hours going through all the reports, so thank you CircleDNA for all these wonderful insights! You can contact CircleDNA to get your own testing kit and use my discount code WES33 to save 33% at checkout!

TỪ VỰNG IELTS ANIMAL TESTING (Kèm ý tưởng)
PHẦN TỪ VỰNG
▪animal testing ≈ animal experimentation: thí nghiệm trên động vật
▪the breeding of genetically modified animals: việc nhân giống động vật biến đổi gen
▪non-animal alternative methods: các phương pháp thay thế phi động vật
▪to undergo safety testing involving animals: trải qua thử nghiệm an toàn sử dụng động vật
▪to replace tests with alternative techniques: thay thế các xét nghiệm bằng các kỹ thuật thay thế
▪to introduce human material into animals: đưa các tế bào/ mô… của con người vào động vật
▪to put human breast tumour cells into mice: đưa tế bào khối u ở người vào chuột
▪to allow researchers to test cancer drugs on human tissue: cho phép các nhà nghiên cứu thử nghiệm thuốc ung thư trên mô người
▪experiment on cell structures instead of whole animals: thí nghiệm trên cấu trúc tế bào thay vì trên toàn bộ cơ thể động vật
▪to use computer models: sử dụng mô hình máy tính
▪study human volunteers: nghiên cứu tình nguyện viên là con người
▪to use epidemiological studies: sử dụng nghiên cứu dịch tễ học

ARGUMENTS FOR ANIMAL TESTING
▪to contribute greatly to scientific advances: đóng góp lớn cho những tiến bộ khoa học
▪to be used to test drugs before they are given to humans: được sử dụng để kiểm tra thuốc trước khi được sử dụng trên đối tượng người
▪to study the effects of genetic diseases: nghiên cứu ảnh hưởng của các bệnh di truyền
▪to find out how genes work: tìm hiểu cách thức hoạt động của gen
▪to explore how organisms function: khám phá cách thức hoạt động của các bộ phận
▪to investigate treatments for human diseases: nghiên cứu các phương pháp điều trị bệnh ở người
▪to be essential in the quest to understand human diseases and ▪to develop new treatments: trở nên thiết yếu trong nỗ lực tìm hiểu các căn bệnh ở người và phát triển các phương pháp điều trị mới
▪advances in the understanding of genetics → animals can be bred with specific genetic traits → allow researchers to explore a range of conditions (cancer, heart disease, stroke, dementia): những tiến bộ trong sự hiểu biết về di truyền → động vật có thể được nhân giống với những đặc điểm di truyền cụ thể → cho phép các nhà nghiên cứu khám phá một loạt các tình trạng bệnh lý (ung thư, bệnh tim, đột quỵ, mất trí nhớ)
▪serious medical or life-saving purposes: những mục đích cứu người và mục đích y tế quan trọng
▪a wealth of medical advances → make with the help of animal research (new vaccines, treatments for cancer, Parkinson’s disease, asthma and HIV): vô số tiến bộ y tế → được thực hiện với sự trợ giúp của nghiên cứu động vật (vắc-xin mới, phương pháp điều trị ung thư, bệnh Parkinson, bệnh hen suyễn và HIV)

ARGUMENTS AGAINST ANIMAL TESTING
▪to cause suffering to animals: gây đau khổ cho động vật
▪cruel, unethical, meaningless/pointless: độc ác, phi đạo đức, vô nghĩa
▪the differences in physiology, genetics and cell structures between animals and humans → invalidate most cures devised by animal experimentation: sự khác biệt về sinh lý, di truyền và cấu trúc tế bào giữa động vật và con người → vô hiệu hóa hầu hết các phương pháp chữa bệnh được tạo ra bởi thí nghiệm trên động vật
▪HIV → deadly to humans but not to most laboratory animals → studying HIV in other species → may not produce results→ applicable to humans: HIV → gây tử vong cho người nhưng không phải với hầu hết các động vật thí nghiệm → nghiên cứu HIV ở các loài khác → có thể không tạo ra kết quả → áp dụng cho người
▪animals do not get many of the human diseases that we do: động vật không mắc nhiều bệnh mà chúng ta đang mắc
▪treatments showing promise in animals → rarely work in humans: phương pháp điều trị hứa hẹn ở động vật → hiếm khi hoạt động trên con người

cancer genetic testing 在 李木生醫師 Facebook 的最佳貼文

上個月是世界乳癌月，因為有乳癌基因BRCA1與BRCA2的突變（統稱BRCA) 而做預防性乳房切除的議題再次被討論。女性大眾一生中約有八分之一的機率會得到乳癌，如果不幸有 BRCA 基因突變的女性則約有 80% 的機率會得乳癌 。（40% 的機率得卵巢癌）

很顯然有這個基因突變會大幅增加得到乳癌的機率。再者，有突變病人的乳癌比其他人更難治療也更容易復發。影星安潔莉娜∙裘莉就是因爲有這個基因的突變而決定做預防性的全乳房與卵巢切除。但為什麼各國的婦產科醫學會大都不推薦所有女性做BRCA 突變的檢測？ 早點知道基因檢測的結果會有壞處嗎？我自己尋找資料後希望與各位分享我的想法，希望大家能更了解這個題目。

基因是人體細胞內含的遺傳資訊單位，它像是身體裡的零件製造代碼，代碼寫錯時做出來的零件就會有問題，而代碼的儲存媒介是雙股DNA，它像拉鏈一樣接合以便保存遺傳資訊，待基因需要表現時細胞會把DNA像拉鏈一樣拉開，轉錄為mRNA 最終轉譯為蛋白質，而各種不同的蛋白質表現成了各種細胞的變化，形成外在人與人之間不同的表現 如酒渦或髮線。（可惜的是我兩者都沒有）顯性的基因變化代表只要從父母任一方遺傳到這個變化便會表現出來，隱性的基因變化代表必需從父母雙方都遺傳到這個變化才會表現出來。BRCA 屬於顯性基因。

健康BRCA基因製造的蛋白質可以抑制細胞不正常的增生而突變的結果，造成所製造的蛋白質無法有效的抑制細胞增生進而產生癌症，約400個人就有一個帶有此突變，對個人來說，只要花幾千塊可以找到這個高度致癌因子是否存在有何不可？在美國婦產科學會的調查中，只有40% 的醫生認為每位女性都可以做 ，我認為原因在於檢測結果的後續行動，在目前的科技下還沒有專家們明確的共識。 雖然有些方法可以降低BRCA突變病人發生乳癌的風險（如吃藥或手術）姑且不論這些方法本身含有的風險，但陽性不代表一定會得乳癌，而陰性也不代表得乳癌的機率會大幅降低。 (約90% 的乳癌病人都沒有BRCA突變) 所以尤其是對於無其他風險的健康女性來說 ，檢測結果背後意義，其複雜度與心理負擔遠比一般的抽血(如膽固醇檢測) 來的大許多，而其必要性也可受討論。

目前國際上的共識是除了需要詳盡的檢測前基因諮詢外，也建議已經有其他危險因子，如家族史 年齡早發(50歲前)乳癌，同患乳癌與卵巢癌的病人考慮做基因檢測，才會有比較大的幫忙。希望這些想法能幫助考慮做乳癌基因檢測的各位做參考，有不詳盡的方面也請多包涵。

======================================================================

The breast cancer genes BRCA1 and 2 (BRCA) made its biggest fame with Angelina Jolie’s decision to undergo preventive breast and ovary surgical removal after learning she carries a pathogenic mutation of BRCA. There is about a 1 in 8 chance of getting breast cancer in a woman’s lifetime. With the BRCA mutations, the risk of developing breast cancer can be as high as 80%. (and about 40% chance of developing ovarian cancer).

Having a pathogenic mutation in BRCA greatly increases the risk of developing breast cancer (and ovarian cancer). Moreover, breast cancer in patients with BRCA mutation tends to be more aggressive and more likely to recur. It seems intuitive to screen for BRCA mutation in every woman. However, most professional bodies around the world do not recommend routine BRCA testing because the carrier rate is low (approximately 0.25% in the general population). Also, there is no conclusive evidence on non-surgical methods of risk reduction. (Hormone antagonists such as Tamoxifen has only been shown to reduce breast cancer in the general population but not patients with BRCA mutation)

Prophylactic mastectomy and oophorectomy is very effective at reducing the risk of breast ( 50% reduction) and ovarian cancer (80% reduction) in patients with BRCA mutation, although the risk is not completely eliminated. However, not everyone who carries the BRCA gene will develop breast/ovarian cancer, so there is potentially an unnecessary surgical risk if one chooses to undertake prophylactic surgery.

Pre-test genetic counselling should be considered in everyone who wishes to take the BRCA testing. Currently the recommendation for women is those who have a strong family history of breast cancer, breast cancer younger than 50 years of age or patients with both breast and ovarian cancer.
