Prevalence and oncologic outcomes of BRCA 1/2 mutations in unselected triple-negative breast cancer patients in Korea
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) accounts for 10–20% of all diagnosed BCs and it is enriched in BRCA1 mutation. Guidelines for Western countries suggest that BRCA 1/2 genetic testing should be done for patien...

Founder effects in two predominant intronic mutations of UNC13D, c.118-308C>T and c.754-1G>C underlie the unusual predominance of type 3 familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (FHL3) in Korea
Familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (familial HLH or FHL) is a potentially fatal autosomal recessive disorder. Our previous study demonstrated that UNC13D mutations (FHL3) account for ∼90 % of FHL in K...
