A new study reports biallelic mutations in RAD51C in a Fanconi anemia-like disorder, while a second study reports monoallelic mutations in the same gene associated with increased breast cancer risk. These findings strengthen the link between Fanconi anemia and breast cancer-associated pathways.
一项新的研究报告称,在类范可尼贫血症中发现 RAD51C 的双等位基因突变,而第二项研究则报告称,同一基因的单等位基因突变与乳腺癌风险增加相关。这些发现加强了范可尼贫血症和乳腺癌相关途径之间的联系。
