In a family with sickle-cell anemia and PKU, each child has a 25 percent risk of inheriting. No genetic illness can be cured. Hemophiliacs can inject clotting factors, and people with PKU can adjust their diet, but they can never get rid of their genes. The best way to deal with genetic disorders is to prevent them through screening. Simple blood tests can detect the gene for sickle-cell anemia.
If a person inherits from a parent a genetic mutation that causes a certain disease, then he or she will usually get the disease. Sickle cell anemia, cystic fibrosis, and early-onset familial Alzheimer's disease are examples of inherited genetic disorders. In other diseases, a genetic variant may occur. A single gene can have many variants. Sometimes, this difference in a gene can cause a disease directly. More often, a variant plays a role in increasing or decreasing a person's risk of developing a disease or condition.
