Retinoblastomas are eye cancers that develop in children. Researchers analyzed samples of retinoblastoma tumors and found they contained mutations in the RB1 gene in all cases studied. Mutations in the RB1 gene, which regulates cell division, cause retinoblastoma by allowing cells in the retina to continue growing abnormally.
