Prevalencia de mutación y de variantes de secuencia para los genes BRCA1 y BRCA2 en una muestra de mujeres colombianas con sospecha de síndrome de cáncer de mama hereditario: serie de casos

Abstract: <p>Objetivo: describir variantes de secuencia en los genes BRCA1 y BRCA2 en una muestra de pacientes colombianas con historia personal o familiar de cáncer de mama sugestiva de riesgo genético.</p><p>Materiales y métodos: serie de casos compuesta por 67 pacientes que fueron remitidas para estudio genético por sospecha de síndrome de cáncer de mama y ovario hereditario (HBOC). De los 67 casos, 42 (62,7 %) cumplieron con los criterios de indicación médica de la National Comprehensive Cancer Net… Show more

“…The spectrum of mutations found in this study is different from that reported in previous studies, which evaluated patients from the central region of Colombia 12,22,49,50 . We suggest that the main reason for this difference between studies, is that the Colombian population is the result of a complex process of admixture between European, African and Native Americans, in varying degrees, depending on the region 28 .…”

“…En cuanto a los primeros, se han descrito mutaciones en genes de alta penetrancia como BRCA1, BRCA2, TP53; y genes de baja penetrancia como RAD51, XRCC3 y ATM. Las funciones de estos genes están relacionadas con la reparación del ácido desoxirribonucleico (ADN) y control del ciclo celular (5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11).…”
