Genetic correlation between multiple myeloma and chronic lymphocytic leukaemia provides evidence for shared aetiology.
Went, M; Sud, A; Speedy, H; Sunter, NJ; Försti, A; et al. (NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-12-21)The clustering of different types of B-cell malignancies in families raises the possibility of shared aetiology. To examine this, we performed cross-trait linkage disequilibrium (LD)-score regression of multiple myeloma ... -
