BRCA1 and BRCA2
But isn't inherited breast cancer quite rare? Well of course most breast cancers aren’t hereditary. Inherited predisposition accounts for about 5% of all breast cancers — mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 probably cause a significant proportion of these. So BRCA mutation doesn’t cause a high fraction of all breast cancers, but, because this disease is so common (about 1 in 10 lifetime risk), it adds...
متن کاملMolecular classification of familial non-BRCA1/BRCA2 breast cancer.
In the decade since their discovery, the two major breast cancer susceptibility genes BRCA1 and BRCA2, have been shown conclusively to be involved in a significant fraction of families segregating breast and ovarian cancer. However, it has become equally clear that a large proportion of families segregating breast cancer alone are not caused by mutations in BRCA1 or BRCA2. Unfortunately, despit...
متن کاملFounder mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes.
BRCA1 and BRCA2 germline mutations contribute to a significant number of familial and hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancers. The proportion of high-risk families with breast and/or ovarian cancer cases due to mutations in these tumor suppressor genes varies widely among populations. In some population, a wide spectrum of different mutations in both genes are present, whereas in other groups ...
متن کاملGenetic diagnosis of cancer: diagnosis of mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 in breast cancer
During the last two decays the tremendous success in molecular biology and genetics which has surprised the entire world. So that today the sequencing of whole genome has been possible for each human individual to estimate its being affected with cardiovascular and cancer diseases. However, these achievements have some important limitations and deep ethical issues which might be ignored. Geneti...
متن کاملنقش ژن‌های BRCA1 و BRCA2 در ابتلاء به سرطان پستان
مقدمه: جهش‌های ژنی BRCA1 و BRCA2 در سلول‌های رده زایا، باعث خطر ابتلاء به سرطان پستان و تخمدان می‌شوند. ژن‌های BRCA1 و BRCA2، عامل 20% از موارد سرطان پستان ارثی هستند. اکثریت جهش‌های موجود در ژن‌های BRCA1 و BRCA2 باعث اتمام زودرس پروتئین می‌شوند. مطالعه حاضر با هدف بررسی نقش جهش‌های BRCA1/2 در ابتلاء به سرطان پستان و معرفی برخی جهش‌های مرتبط با این ژن‌ها انجام شد. روش‌کار: در این مطالعه مروری س...
