Large genomic rearrangements have been reported to account for about 10-15% of BRCA1 gene mutations. Approximately, 90 BRCA rearrangements have been described to date, all of which but one have been reported in Caucasian populations of predominantly Western European descent. Knowledge of BRCA genomic rearrangements in Asian populations is still largely unknown. In this study, we have investigat...
OBJECTIVE The current study investigates disease patterns and outcomes in young Israeli epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) patients and their association with BRCA mutation status. METHODS Consecutive EOC patients diagnosed at or below 50 years in a single institution between 1995-2011 were identified. All patients are referred for genetic counseling and testing for the predominant Jewish BRCA m...
DESCRIPTION Update of the 2005 U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommendation on genetic risk assessment and BRCA mutation testing for breast and ovarian cancer susceptibility. METHODS The USPSTF reviewed the evidence on risk assessment,genetic counseling, and genetic testing for potentially harmful BRCA mutations in asymptomatic women with a family history of breast or ovarian c...
BACKGROUND The contribution of BRCA germline mutational status to breast cancer patients' prognosis is unclear. We aimed to systematically review and perform meta-analysis of the available evidence of effects of BRCA germline mutations on multiple survival outcomes of breast cancer patients as a whole and in specific subgroups of interest, including those with triple negative breast cancer, tho...
Anticipating that genetic tests designed to determine an individuals predisposition to disease would eventually become commercially available, and recognizing that the results of many of these tests may have mortality implications, in 1994 Lincoln National Reinsurance Companies began developing a methodology that would allow the mortality risk associated with a number of different genetic mutat...
1512 Background: The frequency of a BRCA mutation among women with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) has not been well described. Consequently, patients with DCIS were not historically considered ideal candidates for genetic testing even in the presence of a family history of breast and ovarian cancer. Therefore, we examined the prevalence of BRCA1/2 mutations in women diagnosed with DCIS. METH...
UNLABELLED Hispanics in El Paso, TX, a large American-Mexican border city constitute 85% of the population. Limited cancer research has been conducted in this population. We sought to study the prevalence of BRCA mutations among Hispanic patients of Mexican origin, identify reported Mexican founder or recurrent mutations, and study the breast cancer characteristics in mutation carriers. METHO...
Hereditary breast cancer comprises 10% of all breast cancers. The most prevalent genes causing this pathology are BRCA1 and BRCA2 (breast cancer early onset 1 and 2), which also predispose to other cancers. Despite the outstanding relevance of genetic screening of BRCA deleterious variants in patients with a history of familial cancer, this practice is not common in Latin American public instit...
Studies with murine models suggest that maternal exposure to aromatic hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) agonists may impair mammary gland differentiation and increase the susceptibility to mammary carcinogenesis in offspring. However, the molecular mechanisms responsible for these perturbations remain largely unknown. Previously, we reported that the AhR agonists 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (T...
The Fanconi anemia/BRCA (FA/BRCA) DNA damage repair pathway plays a pivotal role in the cellular response to replicative stress induced by DNA alkylating agents and greatly influences drug response in cancer treatment. We recently reported that FA/BRCA genes are overexpressed and causative for drug resistance in human melphalan-resistant multiple myeloma cell lines. However, the transcriptional...
