An elevated rate of whole-genome duplications associated with carcinogen exposure in Black cancer patients

2023-11-10

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> In the United States, Black individuals have higher rates of cancer mortality than any other racial or ethnic group. The sources of these significant racial disparities are not fully understood, and may include social, environmental, and genetic factors that influence cancer onset, diagnosis, and treatment. Here, we examined genomic data from several large-scale cancer patient cohorts to search f...
