Hereditary breast cancer in the Han Chinese population.

Journal of epidemiology - 1 Jan 2013

Cao Wenming, Wang Xiaojia, Li Ji-Cheng

Abstract excerpt

Breast cancer is the most common malignancy among women and has a strong genetic background. So far, 13 breast cancer susceptibility genes of high or moderate penetrance have been identified. This review summarizes findings on these genes in Han Chinese. BRCA1 and BRCA2 are the 2 most important susceptibility genes. They have a relatively low mutation rate, and the most frequent sites of mutation are in exon 11....
