Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Mutation data were obtained by next-generation sequencing using genomic DNA of 56 post-Chernobyl radiation-induced pediatric thyroid cancer cases and 55 controls who were also lived in the same area and exposed but without development of thyroid cancer. Although several candidate genes related to carcinogenesis were found, further research is needed. No obvious accumulation of mutations was identified among DNA repair genes. Through this project, we were able to acquire comprehensive genomic data of the invaluable samples and established the basis of continuous research in future.
