Outline of Final Research Achievements

We identified a family lineage of possible autosomal dominant familial lung cancer, which has 24 lung cancer pants within three generations.
In order to detect responsible cancer genes, we performed genome-wide analysis for three lung cancer patients and six cancer-free individuals within the family. Initially we selected 17 gene mutations by linkage-exome approach. And then by mutation-function analysis, five candidate gene mutations were identified.Now we are verifying mutations in those five genes are responsible for this familial hereditary lung cancer.
