Abstract:Breast cancer is the leading cause of death by cancer among women in less developed regions. In Colombia, few published studies have applied next-generation sequencing technologies to evaluate the genetic factors related to breast cancer. This study characterized the exome of three patients with breast cancer from southwestern Colombia to identify likely pathogenic or disease-related DNA sequence variants in tumor cells. For this, the exomes of three tumor tissue samples from patients with breast cancer were s… Show more
