## Abstract Although there are several plausible biologic mechanisms whereby coffee consumption might influence the risk of breast cancer, epidemiologic evidence is limited. We assessed the association between coffee consumption and breast cancer risk among highβrisk women who carry __BRCA__ mutati
We have screened index cases from 25 Russian breast/ovarian cancer families for germ-line mutations in all coding exons of the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes, using multiplex heteroduplex analysis. In addition we tested 22 patients with breast cancer diagnosed before age 40 without family history and 6 patie
In order to evaluate the role of BRCA1 and BRCA2 germline mutations in Korean patients with sporadic breast cancer, 97 patients with sporadic breast cancer were analyzed for mutations in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 coding regions, by using a combination of fluorescent-conformation sensitive gel electrophore
We have investigated the impact of BRACA1 and BRACA2 mutations that were frequently identified among Hungarian high-risk breast-ovarian cancer families (Ramus et al., 1997b, AJHG), on the development of breast and ovarian cancer in the general Hungarian population. The prevalence of 3 BRCA1 mutation
