The contribution of cancer-related mutations to the incidence of breast cancer in Argentina has not yet been explored.MethodsWe sequenced the entire coding regions of BRCA1, BRCA2, PALB2 and RAD51C in 112 unselected Argentinian breast cancer patients.ResultsA pathogenic genetic variant was found in 12 of 112 (10.7%) patients; two in BRCA1 (1.8%), five in BRCA2 (4.5%), four in PALB2 (3.6%) and one in RAD51C (0.9%). Three of four (75%) PALB2 mutation carriers carried the same variant (c.1653T > A).ConclusionsA founder mutation in PALB2 accounts for up to 4% of breast cancer patients in Argentina. BRCA1, BRCA2, PALB2 and RAD51C should be included in the genetic testing panel of breast cancer patients in Argentina. |
