Are you aware? Tumor Suppressor Genes are genes that play an important role in regulating cell growth, DNA repair, and programmed cell death (apoptosis.) If tumor suppressor genes don't function properly because of a mutation, cells can grow out of control and lead to cancer. Inherited mutations in tumor suppressor genes--like BRCA genes (BReast CAncer genes) and many others--can increase the risk of hereditary cancer.
