    Younger women are more likely to be diagnosed with breast cancer that has certain genetic mutations. Researchers found that breast cancers diagnosed in women under 50 were more likely to have mutations involving substitutions of the DNA bases cytosine (C) and thymine (T), especially substitutions of a C for a T at sites in the DNA where a C is followed by a G (CpG sites). This suggests age may influence the mutational processes involved in breast cancer development.
