Screening for cancer susceptibility in children.

Current opinion in pediatrics - 1 Feb 1994

Malkin D, Friend S H

Abstract excerpt

Epidemiologic studies have demonstrated that virtually every form of human cancer may aggregate in families. Genetic susceptibility plays an important role in the development of many of these cancers, yet until very recently genes associated with this susceptibility had not been identified. Over the last several years, the class of genes known as tumor suppressor genes has been most consistently implicated in...
