Identification of four novel associations for B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia risk.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2019-11-25)There is increasing evidence for a strong inherited genetic basis of susceptibility to acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) in children. To identify new risk variants for B-cell ALL (B-ALL) we conducted a meta-analysis with ... -
Identification of four novel susceptibility loci for oestrogen receptor negative breast cancer.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2016-04-27)Common variants in 94 loci have been associated with breast cancer including 15 loci with genome-wide significant associations (P<5 × 10(-8)) with oestrogen receptor (ER)-negative breast cancer and BRCA1-associated breast ... -
Identification of Genes with Rare Loss of Function Variants Associated with Aggressive Prostate Cancer and Survival.
(ELSEVIER, 2024-03-07)BACKGROUND: Prostate cancer (PrCa) is a substantial cause of mortality among men globally. Rare germline mutations in BRCA2 have been validated robustly as increasing risk of aggressive forms with a poorer prognosis; ... -
Identification of genetic determinants of ATR inhibitor sensitivity in ARID1A mutant ovarian clear cell carcinoma
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2023-01-23)Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is a gynaecological cancer of unmet need characterized by ARID1A and PPP2R1A mutations. Prior work identified a synthetic lethality between ARID1A tumour suppressor mutations in OCCC and ... -
Identification of Germline Genetic Variants that Increase Prostate Cancer Risk and Influence Development of Aggressive Disease.
(MDPI, 2021-02-12)Prostate cancer (PrCa) is a heterogeneous disease, which presents in individual patients across a diverse phenotypic spectrum ranging from indolent to fatal forms. No robust biomarkers are currently available to enable ... -
Identification of highly penetrant Rb-related synthetic lethal interactions in triple negative breast cancer.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-10-25)Although defects in the RB1 tumour suppressor are one of the more common driver alterations found in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), therapeutic approaches that exploit this have not been identified. By integrating ... -
Identification of independent association signals and putative functional variants for breast cancer risk through fine-scale mapping of the 12p11 locus.
(BMC, 2016-06-21)BACKGROUND: Multiple recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), rs10771399, at 12p11 that is associated with breast cancer risk. METHOD: We performed a fine-scale ... -
Identification of miRSNPs associated with the risk of multiple myeloma.
(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2017-02-01)Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignancy of plasma cells usually infiltrating the bone marrow, associated with the production of a monoclonal immunoglobulin (M protein) which can be detected in the blood and/or urine. Multiple ... -
Identification of multiple risk loci and regulatory mechanisms influencing susceptibility to multiple myeloma.
(2018-09-13)Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have transformed our understanding of susceptibility to multiple myeloma (MM), but much of the heritability remains unexplained. We report a new GWAS, a meta-analysis with previous ... -

Identification of neutral tumor evolution across cancer types.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2016-03-01)Despite extraordinary efforts to profile cancer genomes, interpreting the vast amount of genomic data in the light of cancer evolution remains challenging. Here we demonstrate that neutral tumor evolution results in a ... -
Identification of nine new susceptibility loci for endometrial cancer.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-08-09)Endometrial cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer of the female reproductive tract in developed countries. Through genome-wide association studies (GWAS), we have previously identified eight risk loci for endometrial ... -
Identification of nine new susceptibility loci for testicular cancer, including variants near DAZL and PRDM14.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2013-06-01)Testicular germ cell tumor (TGCT) is the most common cancer in young men and is notable for its high familial risks. So far, six loci associated with TGCT have been reported. From genome-wide association study (GWAS) ... -
Identification of Novel Susceptibility Loci and Genes for Prostate Cancer Risk: A Transcriptome-Wide Association Study in Over 140,000 European Descendants.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2019-07-01)Genome-wide association study-identified prostate cancer risk variants explain only a relatively small fraction of its familial relative risk, and the genes responsible for many of these identified associations remain ... -
Identification of novel targets for the treatment of endocrine-resistant breast cancer
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2022-05-31)While endocrine therapy is an effective, well-tolerated treatment for oestrogen receptor positive (ER-positive) breast cancer, a large proportion of initial responders will develop hormone therapy resistance, and relapse. ... -
Identification of phenotype-specific networks from paired gene expression-cell shape imaging data.
(COLD SPRING HARBOR LAB PRESS, PUBLICATIONS DEPT, 2022-04-01)The morphology of breast cancer cells is often used as an indicator of tumor severity and prognosis. Additionally, morphology can be used to identify more fine-grained, molecular developments within a cancer cell, such as ... -
Identification of protein complexes that bind to histone H3 combinatorial modifications using super-SILAC and weighted correlation network analysis.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2015-02-18)The large number of chemical modifications that are found on the histone proteins of eukaryotic cells form multiple complex combinations, which can act as recognition signals for reader proteins. We have used peptide capture ... -
Identification of recurrent noncoding mutations in B-cell lymphoma using capture Hi-C.
(AMER SOC HEMATOLOGY, 2019-01-08)The identification of driver mutations is fundamental to understanding oncogenesis. Although genes frequently mutated in B-cell lymphoma have been identified, the search for driver mutations has largely focused on the ... -
