| Abstract | Evidence to date that germline mutations in the tumor suppressor gene BRCA1 increase the incidence of colorectal cancer is mixed, and both positive and negative results have been reported. To establish whether or not inherited variation in BRCA1 influences the risk of colorectal cancer, we genotyped 2,398 unselected patients with colorectal cancer and 4,570 controls from Poland for three BRCA1 founder mutations (C61G, 4153delA and 5382insC). A BRCA1 mutation was present in 0.42% of unselected cases of colorectal cancer and in 0.48% of controls (OR = 0.8; P = 0.8). The mutation frequency was slightly higher (0.93%) in 321 cases who reported a family history of colon cancer in a first- or second-degree relative (OR = 1.9; P = 0.5). A BRCA1 mutation was also seen in excess (0.82%) in 851 cases who were diagnosed with colorectal cancer at age 60 or earlier (OR = 1.7; P = 0.3). The mean age at onset in carriers was 7 years younger than in non-carriers (57.0 years vs. 64.0) and the difference was significant (P = 0.05). This study suggests that BRCA1 mutations may be associated with early-onset of colorectal cancer. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
