Current perspectives on BRCA1- and BRCA2-associated breast cancers.

Internal medicine journal - 1 Aug 2001

Phillips K A

Abstract excerpt

The identification of two breast cancer predisposition genes, BRCA1 and BRCA2, in the mid-1990s has led to a better understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of hereditary breast cancer and to a new era in breast cancer research. The present article reviews the current state of knowledge regarding the biology of BRCA1 and BRCA2, the cancer risks associated with carrying a pathogenic mutation in either of these...
