Popis: In accordance with the Asian BRCA Consortium data, there is a significant difference in incidence rate of breast cancer depending on age, as well as spectrum and prevalence of BRCA1/2 mutations between Mongoloid (East Asian) and Caucasoid (European) people. However, European strategies to identify familial BC are still applied to the Asian population, including Russian Mongoloids (Khakas, Buryats, Tyvans and Yakuts and others). The main purpose of the study was to identify molecular changes associated with hereditary BC in Russian Mongoloid BC patients (Buryats). Thirty-nine patients were included in the study. Genomic DNA extracted from lymphocytes was used to prepare DNA-libraries. Target sequencing was designed to cover 27 genes, such as ATM, APC, BARD1, BRCA1, BRCA2, BRIP1, CDH1, CHEK2 and others. Paired-end sequencing (2 × 150 bp) was conducted on a NextSeq 500 system (Illumina, USA). Three pathogenic mutations in non-BRCA genes were found (prevalence of 8%). The pathogenic mutations were found in the RAD51D and PTEN genes. The pathogenic variant in the RAD51D gene (rs137886232, NC_000017.10:g.33428366G>A, p.R141X) was observed in two unrelated individuals aged under 40. One of these patients had a family history of late-onset stomach cancer in second-degree relatives. The pathogenic mutation in the PTEN gene (rs786201044, NC_000010.10:g.89692922T>C, p.C136R) was observed in a 38 years old breast cancer patient with no family history. In our study, we first describe pathogenic mutations in RAD51D and PTEN genes found in young Buryat patients.
