Several studies of survival in women with BRCA1 mutations have shown either
reduced survival or no difference compared to controls. Programmes for early
detection and treatment of inherited breast cancer, have failed to demonstrate a
significant improvement in survival in BRCA1 mutation carriers. One hundred and
sixty-seven women with disease-associated germline BRCA1 mutations and breast
cancer f... hiện toàn bộ
Factors affecting adherence to a high-risk surveillance protocol among patients with Li-Fraumeni syndromeSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 21 - Trang 1-8 - 2023

High-risk surveillance for patients with Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS) has shown a
stage shift and improved overall survival, but is demanding. Our objective was
to evaluate surveillance adherence in a population of patients with LFS
presenting for high-risk care. A retrospective analysis of surveillance
adherence of adult patients with LFS at a single institution was performed.
Adherence was defined... hiện toàn bộ
Chemokine Ligand 5 (CCL5) and chemokine receptor (CCR5) genetic variants and prostate cancer risk among men of African Descent:a case-control studySpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 10 - Trang 1-11 - 2012

Chemokine and chemokine receptors play an essential role in tumorigenesis.
Although chemokine-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are
associated with various cancers, their impact on prostate cancer (PCA) among men
of African descent is unknown. Consequently, this study evaluated 43
chemokine-associated SNPs in relation to PCA risk. We hypothesized inheritance
of variant chemokine-as... hiện toàn bộ
