Journeys into the genome of cancer cells.

TL;DR: A clinical vocation in histopathology, a discipline that couples exposure to the sights and smells of the autopsy room with a daily journey into the often beautiful, sometimes ugly world of healthy and diseased human tissues under the microscope.

Somatic structural rearrangements in genetically engineered mouse mammary tumors

TL;DR: Paired-end sequencing of mouse mammary tumors revealed that they display significant heterogeneity in their profiles of somatic rearrangement but, importantly, fewer rearrangements than cognate human mammary cancers, probably because these cancers have been induced by strong driver mutations engineered into the mouse genome.

An Interstitial Tandem Duplication of 9p23–24 Coexists with a Mutation in the BRCA2 Gene in the Germ Line of Three Brothers with Breast Cancer

TL;DR: A family in which three brothers with breast cancer carry in their germ line two genetic abnormalities: an insertion A at nucleotide 2041 in exon 10 of BRCA2, which leads to premature termination of the encoded protein at codon 615, and a tandem interstitial duplication involving chromosome bands 9p23-24 is reported.
