[Steve Gschmeissner/Science Photo Library, Getty Images] Researchers led by a team at Tel Aviv University have found that genetic variants involved in the innate immune response are strongly linked to the onset of breast cancer (BC) in risk carriers. BRCA1 genetic modification. The team performed whole exome sequencing … Read more
