Abstract

Genetic variation has long been thought associated with common complex disease and has therefore been widely studied. Genetic variation in the human genome is present in many forms and have been summarised in this review. The potential role of DNA damage, DNA repair and environmental influence on genetic variation in the development of cancer will be discussed, before significant genome projects are reviewed. All the various forms of genetic variation have been associated with malignancies and have been extensively studied and this is a review of the state of the field. We also discuss the road ahead in fulfilling the ultimate goal in all cancer genetic studies, which is decreasing deaths caused by cancer.

Keywords: DNA damage and repair; environmental influence; genetic variation; malignancy
