Abstract:
The study on susceptibility genes play an important role in early diagnosis and prevention for the individuals with family history of breast carcinoma,elucidation of pathologic mechanism of sporadic breast carcinoma,early diagnosis and adjudging prognosis,research on drug sensitivity,differential diagnosis of benign and malignant disease,etc.Two major susceptibility genes for breast cancer,BRCA1 and BRCA2,are identified,respectively.Other tumor susceptibility genes such as TP53 are known to increase breast cancer risk of BRCA1 and BRCA2.
