One of the significant risk factors of breast cancer is the family history. BRCA1 gene consists of 24 exons that encode a protein with 1863 amino acids. Exon 11 is the largest exons and most of the disease-linked mutations have been found in it. I...
متن کاملGene expression in inherited breast cancer.
Large proportions of hereditary breast cancers are due to mutations in the two breast cancer susceptibility genes BRCA1 and BRCA2. Considerable effort has gone into studying the function(s) of these tumor suppressor genes, both in attempts to better understand why individuals with these inherited mutations acquire breast (and ovarian) cancer and to potentially develop better treatment strategie...
متن کاملMinor role of BRCA2 mutation (Exon2 and Exon11) in patients with early-onset breast cancer amongst Iranian Azeri-Turkish women
Objective(s): Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women. Every year, one million new cases are reported worldwide, representing 18% of the total number of cancer in women.

The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of BRCA2 (e...
متن کاملHOXB13 and other high penetrant genes for prostate cancer
prostate cancer has been shown to increase prostate cancer risk whereby the risk is influenced by: (1) the number of affected family members, (2) first degree affected relatives compared to those who are more distantly related, (3) the presence of early onset cancers in a pedigree (typically men diagnosed at or before age 55).5,6 Despite this recognized familial component, identification of hig...
