It was given the name of Fraser syndrome and mutant alleles of the genes FRAS1, FREM2 and GRIP1 were identified as being responsible for a proportion of cases. In the remainder of cases, it may be supposed that mutant alleles of other genes, as yet unidentified, are responsible. In general, this association of multiple disparate malformations in an autosomal recessive condition may be expected to throw light on important aspects of gene action in embryogenesis. An aspect of medical genetics, which has become important with respect to the condition, is antenatal diagnosis with the prospect of abortion of affected fetuses.展开更多

Using mild carcinogens to induce more or less benign growths can be reversed back to a normal state by single or dual strategy: in spinal paralysis by medullar contusion in young rabbits;for blindness caused by the severing of the optic nerve in sheep;for neural deafness caused by severing the acoustic nerve in rabbits. If these techniques could be shown to be feasible and successful for higher order primates and if having then already cured for life a sufficient number of malignant cancers by cancer reversal by dual strategy in human beings, of course these methods could be then considered for patients.展开更多
