Prevalence of Novel and Recurrent Pathogenic Variants in BRCA Genes in a Cohort of Iranian Hereditary Breast Cancer Patients [PDF]

Advanced Biomedical Research
Background: The incidence of breast cancer (BC) is increasing in Iranian women, especially in those with a positive family history of any type of cancer. Being a carrier of pathogenic variants in BRCA1/2 genes, significantly raises the risk of developing

BRCA2 in mammalian meiosis [PDF]

Trends in Cell Biology, 2022
Breast cancer type 2 susceptibility protein (BRCA2) is a central regulator of homologous recombination in somatic cells and safeguards genomic integrity against DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). Recent evidence suggests that association with unique meiosis-specific cofactors allows BRCA2 to facilitate homologous recombination in germ cells.

Dramatic response to local radiotherapy in a refractory metastatic mediastinal yolk sac tumor patient harboring a germline BRCA2 frameshift mutation: a case report

Cancer Biology & Therapy, 2022
Mediastinal yolk sac tumors (YSTs) are highly aggressive germ cell tumors with an extremely poor prognosis. Radiotherapy plays an important role in the treatment of mediastinal YSTs. To maximize benefit from radiotherapy in patients with mediastinal YSTs,

A mitochondrial response to oxidative stress mediated by unscheduled RNA-DNA hybrids (R-loops)

Molecular & Cellular Oncology, 2021
How oxidative stress promotes aging-related human diseases like cancer and neurodegeneration remains unclear. Here, we discuss the origins and implications of an oxidative-stress response recently reported to destabilize the mitochondrial (mt) genome via

A Multicenter Study of Genotype Variation/Demographic Patterns in 2475 Individuals Including 1444 Cases With Breast Cancer in Turkey

European Journal of Breast Health, 2023
Objective:Breast cancer (BC) is the most common cancer type in women and may be inherited, mostly in an autosomal dominant pattern. The clinical diagnosis of BC relies on the published diagnostic criteria, and analysis of two genes, BRCA1 and BRCA2 ...
