Ethnic differences in cancer risk resulting from genetic variation.

Cancer - 1 Dec 1999

Neuhausen S L

Abstract excerpt

Ethnic differences in cancer incidence and mortality exist and are probably the result of genetic and epidemiological risk factors. Genetic differences caused by founder mutations are reviewed, with special emphasis on mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2. Germline mutations in cancer susceptibility genes have been identified in individuals of all races and ethnic groups. Differences among ethnic groups for cancer risks...
