Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center scientists report data from a new study providing evidence that random, unpredictable DNA copying "mistakes" account for nearly two-thirds of the mutations that cause cancer. … However, many people will still …
For the study, published in the journal Science, researchers from Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center in Baltimore created a mathematical model based on DNA sequencing and epidemiologic data from around the globe. … "We need to continue to encourage …
In a new study examining cancer databases around the world, Johns Hopkins scientists in the Kimmel Cancer Center have discovered that random, unpredictable DNA copying "mistakes" account for nearly two-thirds of the mutations that cause cancer …
However, occasionally they occur in a cancer driver gene, which is just “bad luck,” study author Bert Vogelstein, M.D., co-director of the Ludwig Center at the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center, said at a press conference about the research. … on …
Two thirds of the mutations that cause cancer may be due to random, unpredictable DNA copying "mistakes," according to scientists from the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center in Baltimore, MD. These errors are reported to occur regardless of lifestyle …
"Two-thirds of the mutations that occur in cancers are due to the mistakes that cells make when they divide," co-author Bert Vogelstein, co-director of the Ludwig Center at the Johns Hopkins University Kimmel Cancer Center, said at a news conference.
The study used a new mathematical model based on DNA sequencing and epidemiologic data from around the world. The findings do not in any way suggest that we give up on healthy lifestyles … “We need to continue to encourage people to avoid …
