Comment on “comparative analysis of triple-negative breast cancer transcriptomics of Kenyan, African American and Caucasian women” by Saleh et al.
Abstract
• Alterations to the somatic genome lead to a tumor. • Different germ line genomes influence the formation of the tumor and its response to therapeutics. • Germ line genetics can play a role in breast cancer. • Race is an imperfect measure of germ line genetics. • Black women have a higher incidence of triple negative breast cancer.
