BACKGROUND We aimed to quantify previously observed relatively high cancer risks in BRCA2 mutation carriers (BRCA2 carriers) older than 60 in the Northern Netherlands, and to analyze whether these could be explained by mutation spectrum or population background risk. METHODS This consecutive cohort study included all known pathogenic BRCA1/2 carriers in the Northern Netherlands (N = 1,050). C...
CONTEXT Approximately 10% of women with invasive epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) carry deleterious germline mutations in BRCA1 or BRCA2. A recent article suggested that BRCA2-related EOC was associated with an improved prognosis, but the effect of BRCA1 remains unclear. OBJECTIVE To characterize the survival of BRCA carriers with EOC compared with noncarriers and to determine whether BRCA1 an...
PURPOSE DNA repair defects due to detrimental BRCA2-mutations confer increased susceptibility towards DNA interstrand-crosslinking (ICL) agents and define patient subpopulations for individualized genotype-based cancer therapy. However, due to the side effects of these drugs, there is a need to identify additional agents, which could be used alone or in combination with ICL-agents. Therefore, w...
مقدمه : جهشهای ژن BRCA1 (Breast Cancer susceptibility Gene1) تقریباً در 50 درصد خانوادههای با ظهور زودهنگام سرطان پستان و 80 درصد خانوادههای با ظهور زودهنگام سرطان پستان - تخمدان و جهشهای ژن BRCA2(Breast Cancer susceptibility Gene2) نیز در درصدی از موارد سرطان پستان ارثی وجود دارند. لذا از آنجا که جهشهای این دو ژن بر مدیریت بالینی افراد درمعرض خطر اثر دارد، غربالگری آنها رو به افزایش است. ...
BACKGROUND BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers have a lifetime breast cancer risk of 40% to 80%, suggesting the presence of risk modifiers. We previously identified significant associations in genetic variants in the insulin-like growth factor (IGF) signaling pathway. Here, we investigate additional IGF signaling genes as risk modifiers for breast cancer development in BRCA carriers. METHODS A ...
Human breast cancer susceptibility gene, BRCA2, encodes a 3418-amino acid protein that is essential for maintaining genomic integrity. Among the proteins that physically interact with BRCA2, Partner and Localizer of BRCA2 (PALB2), which binds to the N-terminal region of BRCA2, is vital for its function by facilitating its subnuclear localization. A functional redundancy has been reported betwee...
IN SILICO INVESTIGATION OF THE EFFECT LYCOPENE ON EXPRESSION BRCA1 AND BRCA2 INHIBITOR GENES PROSTATE CANCER
BRCA2 is a breast cancer susceptibility gene implicated in the repair of double-strand breaks by homologous recombination with RAD51. BRCA2 associates with a 70-amino-acid protein, DSS1, but the functional significance of this interaction has remained unclear. Recently, deficiency of a DSS1 orthologue in the fungus Ustilago maydis has been shown to cause a defect in recombinational DNA repair. ...
BACKGROUND Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) may rarely be a component of inherited cancer syndromes such as Li-Fraumeni syndrome and Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome. ACC caused by a BRCA2 mutation has never been reported. METHODS Nucleotide sequencing of BRCA2 in lymphocyte and tumoral DNA of a 50-year-old male who presented with an androgen-secreting ACC and a strong family history of breast, ovar...
BRCA1 and BRCA2 breast cancer susceptibility genes are responsible for most of the hereditary breast cancers. No or very few sporadic breast tumors have been shown to harbor mutations in the coding sequence of BRCA1 or BRCA2. In contrast to normal breast epithelial cells, BRCA1 mRNA levels in tumors appeared to be down-regulated by methylation, while BRCA2 showed significant overexpression in s...
