Identification of 19 new risk loci and potential regulatory mechanisms influencing susceptibility to testicular germ cell tumor.
Litchfield, K; Levy, M; Orlando, G; Loveday, C; Law, PJ; et al. (NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-07-01)Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have transformed understanding of susceptibility to testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs), but much of the heritability remains unexplained. Here we report a new GWAS, a meta-analysis ... -
Identification of nine new susceptibility loci for testicular cancer, including variants near DAZL and PRDM14.
Ruark, E; Seal, S; McDonald, H; Zhang, F; Elliot, A; et al. (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) ... -
Large-scale Analysis Demonstrates Familial Testicular Cancer to have Polygenic Aetiology.
Loveday, C; Law, P; Litchfield, K; Levy, M; Holroyd, A; et al. (ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2018-09-01)UNLABELLED: Testicular germ cell tumour (TGCT) is the most common cancer in young men. Multiplex TGCT families have been well reported and analyses of population cancer registries have demonstrated a four- to eightfold ... -
Validation of loci at 2q14.2 and 15q21.3 as risk factors for testicular cancer.
Loveday, C; Litchfield, K; Levy, M; Holroyd, A; Broderick, P; et al. (Impact Journals, LLC, 2018-02-27)Testicular germ cell tumor (TGCT), the most common cancer in men aged 18 to 45 years, has a strong heritable basis. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have proposed single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at a number ... -
Whole-exome sequencing reveals the mutational spectrum of testicular germ cell tumours.
Litchfield, K; Summersgill, B; Yost, S; Sultana, R; Labreche, K; et al. (NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2015-01-22)Testicular germ cell tumours (TGCTs) are the most common cancer in young men. Here we perform whole-exome sequencing (WES) of 42 TGCTs to comprehensively study the cancer's mutational profile. The mutation rate is uniformly ...
