Linkage of early-onset familial breast cancer to chromosome 17q21
TL;DR: Ch Chromosome 17q21 appears to be the locale of a gene for inherited susceptibility to breast cancer in families with early-onset disease, and genetic analysis yields a lod score of 5.98 for linkage of breast cancer susceptibility to D17S74 in early-ONSet families and negative lod scores in familiesWith late-onsets disease.

TL;DR: It is found that the patterns of evolution in human and chimpanzee protein-coding genes are highly correlated and dominated by the fixation of neutral and slightly deleterious alleles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Breast and ovarian cancer risks due to inherited mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2.
TL;DR: Physical exercise and lack of obesity in adolescence were associated with significantly delayed breast cancer onset, and risks appear to be increasing with time.
