Researchers Develop A Method To Evaluate Variations Identified In Breast Cancer Susce
Using mouse embryonic stem cells, researchers at the National Cancer Institute (NCI), part of the National Institutes of Health, have developed a new method to evaluate which mutations, or changes, in a gene known to increase breast cancer susceptibility, may lead to cancer. The new test, called a functional assay, is more comprehensive and reliable than most current methods. This new test could become a useful and viable tool for genetic counselors, and may have implications beyond cancer.
