Core Tip |
This study applies whole-exome sequencing to a Brazilian cohort with unexplained colorectal polyposis, identifying candidate germline variants in 44.4% of patients. The findings highlight the involvement of genes in the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, suggesting biological relevance to colorectal cancer development. Notably, the study addresses the potential for oligogenic inheritance, challenging the traditional monogenic framework for hereditary cancer syndromes. The work emphasizes the need for functional validation, population-specific variant databases, and careful clinical interpretation to translate genetic discoveries into meaningful patient care. |
