Article Synopsis
- Cancer is a significant public health issue in China, with rising rates of incidence and mortality, particularly concerning concurrent cancers defined as having multiple primary malignancies in an individual.
- A Chinese family with several concurrent cancer cases was studied using whole exome sequencing to identify genetic mutations that could explain their conditions.
- The analysis highlighted the NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase core subunit S7 as a candidate gene for somatic mutations and identified 16 other genes with germline mutations, providing new insights into the molecular causes of concurrent cancers.
