Whole Exome Sequencing Identifies Novel Germline Variants of SLC15A4 Gene as Potentially Cancer Predisposing in Familial Colorectal Cancer

2021-03-09

Abstract excerpt

About 15% of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients have first-degree relatives affected by the same malignancy. However, for most families the cause of familial aggregation of CRC is unknown. In order to identify novel high-to-moderate penetrant germline variants underlying CRC susceptibility, we performed whole exome sequencing (WES) on four CRC cases and two unaffected family members of a Polish family without any mu...
