Diabetic Retinopathy - In later stages of the disease, blood vessels in the retina start to bleed into the vitreous (gel-like fluid in the center of the eye). If this happens, you may see dark, floating spots or streaks that look like cobwebs. Sometimes, the spots clear up on their own — but it’s important to get treatment right away. Without treatment, the bleeding can happen again, get worse, or cause scarring.

GENETIC TESTING AND PREGNANCY Inherited genetic diseases cannot be cured, but they can be prevented. Carrier screening is a simple blood or saliva test that will reveal whether you or your partner carry gene abnormalities that could cause disease in your offspring. Most genetic disorders affecting children are recessive, meaning they develop only when two copies of a defective gene are inherited. Parents who have a single copy of a recessive mutation are carriers and are in most cases unaffected by the disease. However, parents who are both carriers for the same condition can pass that condition on to their child if the child inherits an abnormal gene from each of them. Genetic diseases are often fatal or severely debilitating. Because carriers usually have no symptoms, screening is the only way to know your risk of having an affected child.

What are genes? A human embryo contains 46 chromosomes organized into 23 pairs: 22 pairs of non-sex chromosomes, called autosomes, and one pair of sex chromosomes (XX in a female and XY in a male). One chromosome in each pair is inherited from the mother and one from the father. Located along these chromosomes are approximagely 25,000 genes that carry instructions for making proteins. Through the proteins they encode, your genes determine how your body develops and functions.

What is a gene mutation? A gene mutation is a permanent alteration in a gene. Disease results from the altered gene's inability to produce a protein the body needs for normal functioning. The diseases produced by gene mutations can be mild, severely debilitating, or fatal.

How are genetic diseases inherited? Most genetic diseases affecting children are recessive, meaning the normally functioning gene in a pair will override the abnormal one, if a normal gene is present.

What does it mean to be a carrier? A carrier is a healthy person who has one altered copy of a gene and one normally functioning copy. Because carriers do not become ill, many families pass recessive gene mutations down from generation to generation without ever knowing it. Recessive gene mutations are known as "autosomal recessive" if they occur on one of the 22 pairs of non-sex chromosomes and "Xlinked" if they occur on an X chromosome.

Autosomal recessive inheritance Autosomal recessive diseases occur when both parents are carriers of the same disease and their child inherits an altered gene from each of them. Children of carrier parents have:   

A 25% chance of inheriting two altered genes and developing the disease. A 25% chance of inheriting two normally functioning genes. A 50% chance of inheriting only one altered gene and becoming a carrier.

X-linked recessive inheritance X-linked conditions like Fragile X syndrome occur when there is a gene mutation on the X chromosome. An X-linked condition is usually inherited from a woman who is a carrier of the condition. Carrier females have a working copy of a gene on one X chromosome and an altered copy on the other. Women pass on one of their X chromosomes in each egg. When the X chromosome with the mutation is passed on in an egg and a Y chromosome is passed on in a sperm, the resulting male fetus will have the X-linked condition. Males with X-linked inheritance are generally affected and females are unaffected carriers. However, X-linked inheritance is complex. Depending on the specific disease and mutation, an affected boy may be symptom-free or a carrier girl may have mild symptoms.

Chromosomal disorders Chromosomal disorders arise from errors in an entire chromosome rather than mutations in a single gene. These errors occur when the egg and sperm are forming and may be inherited from either the father or the mother. Perhaps the most familiar chromosomal disorder is Down syndrome, which occurs when a child receives three copies of a certain chromosome instead of two. Other birth defects result when chromosomes are broken, missing, or rearranged. Unlike single-gene diseases, chromosomal disorders cannot be predicted by screening parents before pregnancy. There are screening tests your doctor may recommend during pregnancy to help determine whether your fetus is at a greater risk for chromosomal disorder. Prenatal disgnostic tests (CVS or amniocentesis) will reveal whether your baby's chromosomes are normal. Because the risk of chromosome abnormalities increases as women age, doctors will typically recommend prenatal testing for mothers who will be over 35 at the time of birth.

Multifactorial diseases A great number of diseases, such as diabetes, congenital heart defects, spina bifida, and cancer, are now known to have a hereditary component. These are called "multifactorial" diseases because they are caused not by a single gene mutation, but by a combination of genetic and environmental factors working together in ways that aren't yet fully understood. Genetic screening for mutations associated with multifactorial diseases can only tell you about your risk. It cannot predict whether you will develop the disease. For instance, a woman who inherits an alteration in the BRCA2 gene is more likely than other women to develop breast cancer, but she may also remain disease-free. The altered gene is only one risk factor among many. Lifestyle, environment, and other biological factors also play a part. If you are concerned about a health problem that seems to run in your family, and want to know whether your genes put you or your children at increased risk, you may want to talk to a genetic counselor about what tests are available.
