Age related shift in the mutation spectra of germline and somatic NF2 mutations: hypothetical role of DNA repair mechanisms.

Journal of medical genetics - 1 Aug 2005

Evans D G R, Maher E R, Baser M E

Abstract excerpt

It has been suggested that somatic mutations that accumulate due to an age related decline in the efficiency of DNA repair mechanisms might contribute to the increased incidence of cancer in older people. However, there is little direct evidence for this phenomenon. The spectra of germline and so...
