Breast cancer incidence and the effect of cigarette smoking in heterozygous carriers of mutations in the ataxia-telangiectasia gene.

Cancer epidemiology, biomarkers & prevention : a publication of the American Association for Cancer Research, cosponsored by the American Society of Preventive Oncology - 1 Nov 2008

Swift Michael, Lukin Jennifer L

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Mutations in the ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T) gene cause an autosomal recessive syndrome in homozygotes and compound heterozygotes and predispose female heterozygous carriers to breast cancer. No environmental agent has been previously shown to increase the risk of cancer for women who...
