A research team at the University of Helsinki, Finland, set out to study the genetic structure of fibroids by determining the sequence of all the more than 20 000 human genes, in a series of 18 tumors. This, and further validation in over 200 fibroids, revealed very specific mutations in a gene called MED12, in as many of 70% of the studied tumors.
It may so happen that, in future thias genetic mutation may be targeted to treat the condition.
