Jakarta. Everyone would want a healthy body and free from all diseases. But certain diseases can not be prevented its existence because it included an inherited genetic disease.

Hereditary diseases is a genetic disorder inherited from parents to their children. But there are parents who only act as carriers of properties (carrier) alone and the disease first appeared after triggered by the environment and lifestyle.

As quoted from International Bioscience, Friday (16/4/2010) there are some very serious hereditary disease because it can be inherited in the next generation. Parents who have a hereditary gene, you should immediately consult his son.

There are several derivative diseases that automatically relegated to the child or the next generation, namely:

1. Haemophilia
Hemophilia is one of the hereditary deficiency of blood clotting factor 8 or 9. Commands have blood clots in the X chromosome, so hemophilia patients are MOSTLY MEN. Therefore, the majority of women as carriers only. The disease is difficult to prevent because every child has one sex chromosome from the mother and one sex chromosome from the father, hence the disease is always starting from the children.

2. Color-blind
Color blindness is one of vision problems because of the inability to see the differences between some colors, the disease is inherited from a genetic mutation of the X chromosome. Most of these diseases due to genetic factors, but have also caused damage to the eye, nerve or brain due to certain chemicals. Mutation that causes color blindness if at least there are 19 different chromosomes and 56 different genes. This condition can occur since they’re a little child or an adult.

3. Diabetes mellitus
Diabetes mellitus have a strong relationship with offspring. The disease is characterized by high blood sugar levels due to insulin in the body that can not work optimally. Someone who has leukocyte antigens (human leukocyte antigen / HLA) in blood obtained from the parents will have a strong tendency to develop type 1 diabetes.

While type 2 diabetes is also a derivative of disease that will appear in the next generation if there are other problems that accompany such as obesity, hypertension or an unhealthy lifestyle that disrupt the function of beta cells in his body.

4. Thalassemia
Thalassemia is a blood disorder due to hemoglobin in blood is easy to rupture. This disease is genetically inherited when both parents are carriers of properties (carrier). As a result of this blood disorder makes children look pale and must get regular blood transfusions for hemoglobin remained normal. Based on Mendel‘s laws if his mother as a carrier, then every child a healthy chance of 25 percent, 50 percent as carriers and 25 percent affected by thalassemia.

5. Baldness
As it is known that baldness is caused by many things, but one of them can also be due to hereditary factors of parents. If her father go bald, then at least one child is experiencing hair loss caused by an inherited gene.

Dr. Angela Christiano, professor of dermatology and genetics at Columbia University Medical Center discovered a gene that causes hair thinning and may even feel the effect when still a child. Known genes that cause APCDD1 hair follicles to shrink so the hair is more and more thin and bald.

6. Allergy
Most allergies are caused by hereditary factors. If parents have allergies talent, then there is probably about 70 percent of children will have allergies as well. But if only one person who is allergic, then this risk factor could be reduced about 30 percent.

7. Albino
Albino is one disease that caused the child’s derivative containing an albino gene from the father and mother. Most people with albinism born of parents who have a disruption intheir melanin production, but in people carriers will not show signs of having an albino gene. If the parents only as a carrier or have one albino gene, should not marry someone who has an albino.

8. Asthma
Asthma is one of the hereditary and known that maternal factors more strongly to reduce asthma in children than the father factor. Asthma can occur when triggered by the presence of a nearby allergens. In addition, about 30 percent of asthma caused by an instance of her parents. But in some people that asthma is well controlled, can be lost just before adulthood.

One way to prevent these diseases dropped to the next generation is to do a complete examination before marriage. Because of this examination will be known whether they have inherited the disease gene to their children later or not so they can be better prepared to face it.
