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 ...
Modifiable pathways for colorectal cancer: a mendelian randomisation analysis.
(ELSEVIER INC, 2020-01-01)
BACKGROUND: Epidemiological studies have linked lifestyle, cardiometabolic, reproductive, developmental, and inflammatory factors to the risk of colorectal cancer. However, which specific factors affect risk and the strength ...
Transcriptome-wide association study reveals candidate causal genes for lung cancer.
(WILEY, 2020-04-01)
We have recently completed the largest GWAS on lung cancer including 29,266 cases and 56,450 controls of European descent. The goal of our study has been to integrate the complete GWAS results with a large-scale expression ...
Assessment of polygenic architecture and risk prediction based on common variants across fourteen cancers.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-07-03)
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have led to the identification of hundreds of susceptibility loci across cancers, but the impact of further studies remains uncertain. Here we analyse summary-level data from GWAS of ...
