Association analysis identifies 65 new breast cancer risk loci.
(2017-11)
Breast cancer risk is influenced by rare coding variants in susceptibility genes, such as BRCA1, and many common, mostly non-coding variants. However, much of the genetic contribution to breast cancer risk remains unknown. ...
A genetic study and meta-analysis of the genetic predisposition of prostate cancer in a Chinese population.
(IMPACT JOURNALS LLC, 2016-04-19)
Prostate cancer predisposition has been extensively investigated in European populations, but there have been few studies of other ethnic groups. To investigate prostate cancer susceptibility in the under-investigated ...
Trans-ancestry genome-wide association meta-analysis of prostate cancer identifies new susceptibility loci and informs genetic risk prediction.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2021-01-04)
Prostate cancer is a highly heritable disease with large disparities in incidence rates across ancestry populations. We conducted a multiancestry meta-analysis of prostate cancer genome-wide association studies (107,247 ...
Glioma risk associated with extent of estimated European genetic ancestry in African Americans and Hispanics.
(WILEY, 2020-02-01)
Glioma incidence is highest in non-Hispanic Whites, and to date, glioma genome-wide association studies (GWAS) to date have only included European ancestry (EA) populations. African Americans and Hispanics in the US have ...
Genome-wide interaction and pathway-based identification of key regulators in multiple myeloma.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2019-03-04)
Inherited genetic susceptibility to multiple myeloma has been investigated in a number of studies. Although 23 individual risk loci have been identified, much of the genetic heritability remains unknown. Here we carried ...
Pathway-analysis of published genome-wide association studies of lung cancer: A potential role for the CYP4F3 locus.
(WILEY, 2017-06-01)
The fatty acids (FAs) metabolism is suggested to play a pivotal role in the development of lung cancer, and we explored that by conducting a pathway-based analysis. We performed a meta-analysis of published datasets of six ...
Diffuse gliomas classified by 1p/19q co-deletion, TERT promoter and IDH mutation status are associated with specific genetic risk loci.
(SPRINGER, 2018-05-01)
Recent genome-wide association studies of glioma have led to the discovery of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at 25 loci influencing risk. Gliomas are heterogeneous, hence to investigate the relationship between ...
12 new susceptibility loci for prostate cancer identified by genome-wide association study in Japanese population.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2019-09-27)
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified ~170 genetic loci associated with prostate cancer (PCa) risk, but most of them were identified in European populations. We here performed a GWAS and replication study ...
Two Novel Susceptibility Loci for Prostate Cancer in Men of African Ancestry.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS INC, 2017-08-01)
Prostate cancer incidence is 1.6-fold higher in African Americans than in other populations. The risk factors that drive this disparity are unknown and potentially consist of social, environmental, and genetic influences. ...
A genome-wide association study identifies risk loci for childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia at 10q26.13 and 12q23.1.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-03-01)
Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have shown that common genetic variation contributes to the heritable risk of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). To identify new susceptibility loci for the largest subtype ...
