Abstract: Background: The purpose of this study was to estimate the cumulative risks of all cancers in women from 50 to 75 years of age with a BRCA1 or BRCA2 pathogenic variant.Methods: Participants were women with BRCA1 or BRCA2 pathogenic variants from 85 cent...

A recurrent pathogenic BRCA2 exon 5-11 duplication in the Christian Arab population in Israel.

Publication Type: Academic Journal

Source(s): Familial cancer [Fam Cancer] 2022 Jul; Vol. 21 (3), pp. 289-294. Date of Electronic Publication: 2021 May 17.

Abstract: Germline pathogenic variants (PVs) in BRCA1/BRCA2 are well-established risk factors for breast cancer (BC) and/or ovarian cancer (OC). Founder PVs have been described in BRCA1/ BRCA2 in several genetic isolates. The Christian Arab population in the Mid...

Racial and ethnic variation in BRCA1 and BRCA2 genetic test results among individuals referred for genetic counseling at a large urban comprehensive cancer center.

Publication Type: Academic Journal

Source(s): Cancer causes & control : CCC [Cancer Causes Control] 2023 Feb; Vol. 34 (2), pp. 141-149. Date of Electronic Publication: 2022 Nov 12.

Abstract: Purpose: The prevalence of pathogenic variants in BRCA1 and BRCA2 in populations other than Ashkenazi Jewish (AJ) is not well defined. We describe the racial and ethnic-specific prevalence of BRCA1/2 pathogenic variants and variants of uncertain signif...

A moving target for drug discovery: Structure activity relationship and many genome (de)stabilizing functions of the RAD52 protein.

Source(s): DNA repair [DNA Repair (Amst)] 2022 Dec; Vol. 120, pp. 103421. Date of Electronic Publication: 2022 Oct 27.

Abstract: BRCA-ness phenotype, a signature of many breast and ovarian cancers, manifests as deficiency in homologous recombination, and as defects in protection and repair of damaged DNA replication forks. A dependence of such cancers on DNA repair factors less ...

Rare germline variants in PALB2 and BRCA2 in familial and sporadic chordoma.

Publication Type: Academic Journal

Source(s): Human mutation [Hum Mutat] 2022 Oct; Vol. 43 (10), pp. 1396-1407. Date of Electronic Publication: 2022 Jul 12.

Authors:

Abstract: Chordoma is a rare bone tumor with genetic risk factors largely unknown. We conducted a whole-exome sequencing (WES) analysis of germline DNA from 19 familial chordoma cases in five pedigrees and 137 sporadic chordoma patients and identified 17 rare ge...

Pentagalloylglucose disrupts the PALB2-BRCA2 interaction and potentiates tumor sensitivity to PARP inhibitor and radiotherapy.

Publication Type: Academic Journal
