Hereditary risk of breast cancer: not only BRCA.

Journal of experimental & clinical cancer research : CR - 1 Sept 2002

Turchetti D, Cortesi L, Federico M, Romagnoli R, Silingardi V

Abstract excerpt

The BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes are involved in genetic susceptibility to breast cancer (BC). Nevertheless, in a relevant number of families displaying a disease pattern suggesting an inherited susceptibility to BC, mutational analysis fails to detect any defect in the BRCA genes. Therefore, women belonging to such families should be considered eligible for programs aimed at BC control in individuals at hereditary...
