Analysis of BRCA1 large genomic rearrangements to identify individuals at risk of breast cancer
2020-04-30
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background. Breast cancer (BC) is a malignant neoplasm in which genetic and environmental aspects contribute to its development. In many cases, pathogenic mutations in BRCA1 are caused by large genomic rearrangements such as copy number variations, a mechanism of gene inactivation that increases the risk of BC. Therefore, identifying women at high risk of BC through genetic testing is o...
