Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Purpose Female carriers of germline <italic>BRCA1</italic> mutations almost invariably develop breast cancer (BC) however the age at onset is a subject of variation. We hypothesized that the age-related penetrance of <italic>BRCA1</italic> mutations may depend on inherited variability in the host immune system. Methods Next-generation sequencing was utilized for genotyping of HLA clas...
