Genetics of cancer predisposition and progression.

K Schwechheimer1, W K Cavenee.   

Abstract

The development of human cancer is a multistep process that entails a progressively more malignant phenotype through the evolution of cellular subsets with increasing numbers of genetic alterations. Here we review the molecular genetics of human cancer predisposition and progression and describe paradigmatic cancer types and cancer syndromes. We also briefly consider the future impact of molecular biology on cancer diagnosis and treatment.
