We'll find out in a moment on WellnessWise. To determine the role of genetics in lung cancer, researchers at the National Cancer Institute used The National Academy of Sciences Twin Registry. The investigators identified over 600 pairs of twins where at least one of them had developed lung cancer. They then looked at the type of twin relationship. If there was a genetic factor that increased lung cancer risk, they expected to find that identical twins of cancer victims would have a greater risk of also developing lung cancer compared to fraternal twins.
