Defects in mitotic and telomere function increase risk for sarcomas

AMERICAN ASSOCIATION FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF SCIENCE (AAAS) Heritable pathogenic defects in genes related to mitosis and telomere function may specifically increase the risk for sarcomas – rare cancers that develop in muscles, bones, and other connective tissues, researchers report. The findings provide new biological insight into sarcoma development and could inform better genetic risk profiles for...
