'Genetic map' of patient's tumor uncovers cancer risk genes that would otherwise remain hidden
Using next-generation sequencing (NGS) to profile tumor cells from patients with solid tumors, researchers at Fondazione Policlinico Universitario A. Gemelli IRCCS identified genetic alterations associated with cancer predisposition in 10% of the subjects examined. These alterations are also present in the patients' healthy cells; they contribute to tumor development and may be present in…
