The MYC (v-myc avian myelocytomatosis viral oncogene homolog; c-MYC) locus on chromosome 8q is susceptible to high-level amplification following exposure of human breast cells to ionizing radiation, and c-MYC amplification is a common feature of both radiogenic adenocarcinoma and radiogenic angiosarcoma of the breast. Taken together, these observations suggest common breast-specific susceptibility factors that predispose cells to amplification of this critical proto-oncogene and the development of radiogenic cancer in multiple tissue types of this radiosensitive organ.
位于8号染色体q臂上的MYC(v-myc禽骨髓细胞瘤病毒癌基因同源物;c-MYC)基因座,在人乳腺细胞受到电离辐射后易发生高水平扩增,而c-MYC扩增是乳腺放射性腺癌和放射性血管肉瘤的共同特征。综合这些观察结果表明,存在常见的乳腺特异性易感因素,使细胞易于扩增这一关键原癌基因,并在这个放射敏感器官的多种组织类型中引发放射性癌症。
