Abstract excerpt
Through classical genetic epidemiological studies, such as twin studies, it is possible to get an estimate of the genetic contribution to cancer risk. However, due to the high degree of complexity of the human genome, it is not an easy task to identify the genes responsible for this contribution. Linkage analysis in cancer families has allowed the localisation and subsequent identification of highly penetrant...
