HLA gene polymorphism is a modifier of age-related breast cancer penetrance in carriers of BRCA1 pathogenic alleles

2024-01-31

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...
