Cancer genetics, precision prevention and a call to action.
Turnbull, C; Sud, A; Houlston, RS (NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-09-01)More than 15 years have passed since the identification, through linkage, of 'first-wave' susceptibility genes for common cancers (BRCA1, BRCA2, MLH1 and MSH2). These genes have strong frequency-penetrance profiles, such ... -
Large-scale Analysis Demonstrates Familial Testicular Cancer to have Polygenic Aetiology.
Loveday, C; Law, P; Litchfield, K; Levy, M; Holroyd, A; et al. (ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2018-09-01)UNLABELLED: Testicular germ cell tumour (TGCT) is the most common cancer in young men. Multiplex TGCT families have been well reported and analyses of population cancer registries have demonstrated a four- to eightfold ... -
Large-scale Sequencing of Testicular Germ Cell Tumour (TGCT) Cases Excludes Major TGCT Predisposition Gene.
Litchfield, K; Loveday, C; Levy, M; Dudakia, D; Rapley, E; et al. (2018-06)Testicular germ cell tumour (TGCT), the most common cancer in young men, has a significant heritable basis that has long raised questions as to the existence of underlying major high-penetrance susceptibility gene(s). To ... -
