Genes account for major cancer types 25 percent
Scandinavian researchers report that genes drive more than a quarter of prostate colorectal and breast cancers. In a study of 44,788 twin pairs from Sweden Denmark and Finland they found genes account for 30 percent of various cancers while risks for identical twins with matched cancers were much higher than fraternal twins but not determinative. The findings challenge the belief that genetics alone will yield cures and stress the role of non genetic factors.
