Characterization of the genomic features and expressed fusion genes in micropapillary carcinomas of the breast.
(WILEY, 2014-04-01)
Micropapillary carcinoma (MPC) is a rare histological special type of breast cancer, characterized by an aggressive clinical behaviour and a pattern of copy number aberrations (CNAs) distinct from that of grade- and oestrogen ...
Germline mutations in the PAF1 complex gene CTR9 predispose to Wilms tumour.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2014-08-07)
Wilms tumour is a childhood kidney cancer. Here we identify inactivating CTR9 mutations in 3 of 35 Wilms tumour families, through exome and Sanger sequencing. By contrast, no similar mutations are present in 1,000 population ...
Gene-environment dependence creates spurious gene-environment interaction.
(CELL PRESS, 2014-09-04)
Gene-environment interactions have the potential to shed light on biological processes leading to disease and to improve the accuracy of epidemiological risk models. However, relatively few such interactions have yet been ...
Candidate gene-environment interactions in breast cancer.
(BIOMED CENTRAL LTD, 2014-10-17)
Gene-environment interactions have the potential to shed light on biological processes leading to disease, identify individuals for whom risk factors are most relevant, and improve the accuracy of epidemiological risk ...
Genetic variation at CYP3A is associated with age at menarche and breast cancer risk: a case-control study.
(BMC, 2014-05-26)
INTRODUCTION: We have previously shown that a tag single nucleotide polymorphism (rs10235235), which maps to the CYP3A locus (7q22.1), was associated with a reduction in premenopausal urinary estrone glucuronide levels and ...
