Germline mutations in pediatric cancer cohort with mixed‐ancestry Mexicans
We found that 15% of confirmed mixed‐ancestry Mexican patients were carriers of germline mutations in CDKN2A, CHEK2, DICER1, FANCA, MSH6, MUTYH, NF1, and SBDS. This first report identifies potential genetic risk factors and provides a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms of childhood cancer in this population. Abstract Background Childhood
