NEW BRUNSWICK, New Jersey, Feb. 23 (TNSJou) -- Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey issued the following news:
The most frequently mutated gene in human cancers is called p53. Patients with Li-Fraumeni syndrome, which is a rare disorder that increases the risk of developing several types of cancer, often have an increased risk to develop cancers at early ages if they inherit p53 mutations. Recent studies suggest that some individuals with inherited p53 mutations do not have the ea . . .
