Population-specific Mutation Patterns in Breast Tumors from African American, European American, and Kenyan Patients.

Abstract

The study describes differences in tumor mutational profiles between African American, European American, and Kenyan breast cancer patients. It also investigates how these profiles may relate to the tumor immune environment and the neighborhood environment in which the patients had residence. Finally, it describes an overrepresentation of ARID1A gene mutations in breast tumors of the Kenyan patients.
