For example, recent health economic studies of genetic testing for an increased risk of breast cancer suggest that it is associated with higher cost-effectiveness to screen for pathogenic variants in a seven gene panel rather than the usual two gene test for variants in BRCA1 and BRCA2. ...
In 2008, an estimated 21,650 women were diag- nosed with ovarian cancer.1 Approximately 8% to 15% of these ovarian cancers are attributable to a hereditary predisposition to breast and ovarian cancer caused by germ line mutation of the BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene.2–4 In addition, a small ...

BRCA是BReast CAncer gene的缩写,顾名思义,乳腺癌基因。金博士发现BRCA1基因,4年后也就是1994年,科学家进一步发现了BRCA2基因,BRCA2基因位于13号染色体上。 每个人都会有这两个基因。其实并不是有BRCA1 和 BRCA2的人更容易得癌症,相反,他们是抗癌基因,他们是“好”基因。他们可以产生肿瘤抑制蛋白,就和“维修工...
