Journal Article

Metabolic gene polymorphism frequencies in control populations.

TL;DR: Using the International Project on Genetic Susceptibility to Environmental Carcinogens (GSEC) database containing information on over 15,000 control (noncancer) subjects, the allele and genotype frequencies for many of the more commonly studied metabolic genes in the human population were determined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prediction of BRCA1 Status in Patients with Breast Cancer Using Estrogen Receptor and Basal Phenotype

TL;DR: The use of cytokeratin staining in combination with ER and morphology provides a more accurate predictor of BRCA1 mutation status than previously available, that may be useful in selecting patients for BRCa1 mutation testing.
Journal ArticleDOI

A SUMOylation-defective MITF germline mutation predisposes to melanoma and renal carcinoma

Corine Bertolotto, +98 more
- 01 Dec 2011 - 
TL;DR: A germline missense substitution in MITF (Mi-E318K) is identified that occurred at a significantly higher frequency in genetically enriched patients affected with melanoma, RCC or both cancers, when compared with controls and provides insights into the link between SUMOylation, transcription and cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

International variation in rates of uptake of preventive options in BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers.

Kelly A. Metcalfe, +46 more
TL;DR: Nearly one‐half of the women at risk for breast cancer had taken no preventive option, relying solely on screening, and there were large differences in the uptake of the different preventive options by country of residence.
