The purpose of this article is to provide a review of principles of genetic testing in prostate cancer and highlight the significance of clinical genetic testing of BRCA1/2 and other genes (CHEK2, HOXB13, PALB2), including Lynch syndrome genes (MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, and PMS2) in men with metastatic prostate cancer.

A number of germline mutations in DNA damage repair genes ( BRCA1, BRCA2, CHEK2, ATM and PALB2) and in DNA mismatch repair genes ( MLH1, MSH2, MSH6 and PMS2) can drive the development of prostate cancer.

We found monoallelic truncating/functionally deleterious mutations in seven genes, including ATM and CHEK2, which have previously been associated with PrCa predisposition, and five new candidate PrCa associated genes involved in cancer predisposing recessive disorders, namely RAD51C, FANCD2, FANCI, CEP57 and RECQL4.

In conclusion, we propose that CHK2 is a negative regulator of androgen sensitivity and prostate cancer growth, and that CHK2 signaling is lost during prostate cancer progression to castration resistance.
