期刊描述简介:
The aim of Cancer Genetics is to publish high quality scientific papers on the cellular, genetic and molecular aspects of cancer, including cancer predisposition and clinical diagnostic applications. Specific areas of interest include descriptions of new chromosomal, molecular or epigenetic alterations in benign and malignant diseases; novel laboratory approaches for identification and characterization of chromosomal rearrangements or genomic alterations in cancer cells; correlation of genetic changes with pathology and clinical presentation; and the molecular genetics of cancer predisposition. To reach a basic science and clinical multidisciplinary audience, we welcome original full-length articles, reviews, meeting summaries, brief reports, and letters to the editor.

Whole genome joint analysis reveals ATM:C.1564_1565del variant segregating with Ataxia-Telangiectasia and breast cancer.
ATM gene is implicated in the development of breast cancer in the heterozygous state, and Ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T) in a homozygous or compound heterozygous state. Ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T) is a rare cerebellar ataxia syndrome presenting with progressive neurologic impairment, telangiectasia, and an increased risk of leukemia and lymphoma. Although the role of ATM, separately, in association with A-T and breast cancer is well documented, there is a limited number of studies investigating ATM variants when segregating with both phenotypes in the same family. Here, using joint analysis and whole genome sequencing, we investigated ATM c.1564_1565del in a family with one homozygous member presenting with A-T (OMIM # 208900) and three heterozygous members, of whom one had breast cancer (OMIM #114480). To our knowledge, this is the first study of ATM c.1564_1565del segregation with both A-T and breast cancer phenotypes within the same kindred. This study highlights the need for a comprehensive genomic approach in the appropriate cancer risk management of heterozygote carriers of ATM in families with A-T.

Half of most frequently mutated genes in breast cancer are expressed differentially between premenopausal and postmenopausal breast cancer patients.
Breast cancer has distinct causes and molecular characteristics at premenopausal and postmenopausal ages. The age-standardized incidence rate for postmenopausal breast cancer is more than 10 times higher than in premenopausal breast cancer. Here, we showed that the expression of 10 out of 20 most frequently mutated genes in breast cancer (namely, PIK3CA, CDH1, MUC16, PTEN, FAT3, FAT1, SPEN, ARID1A, LRP1B and RUNX1) is higher in premenopausal women with breast cancer than in postmenopausal women with breast cancer. The most significant differences in the expression in terms of menopause status were observed for RUNX1 and FAT1. Furthermore, we found that the majority of these 10 genes also show ER (estrogen receptor) or PR (progesterone receptor) status-dependent expression in both premenopausal and postmenopausal breast cancer patients. Unlike what we observed in the case of ER or PR status, the expression of most of these genes does not change depending on HER2 (human epidermal growth factor receptor 2) status in both premenopausal and postmenopausal breast cancer patients. Combined, our analysis suggests that menopause status might influence the expression of most frequently mutated genes in breast cancer, and that the most of these genes whose expression differ between pre- and post-menopausal women with breast cancer also show ER or PR status-dependent expression in women with breast cancer.
