Familial breast cancer: scope for more susceptibility genes?

Breast cancer research and treatment - 1 Nov 2003

Hemminki Kari, Granström Charlotta

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: The familial risk of female breast cancer is somewhat less than 2.0 when a first-degree relative is diagnosed with breast cancer, but it is not known to what extent heritable or environmental factors explain the familial clustering. Such data would be valuable for prevention and gene identification strategies. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: We used the nation-wide Swedish Family-Cancer Database on 10.2 million...
