The National Cancer Institute Cohort Consortium: An International Pooling Collaboration of 58 Cohorts from 20 Countries.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2018-11-01)
Cohort studies have been central to the establishment of the known causes of cancer. To dissect cancer etiology in more detail-for instance, for personalized risk prediction and prevention, assessment of risks of subtypes ...
Breast Cancer Risk After Recent Childbirth: A Pooled Analysis of 15 Prospective Studies.
(AMER COLL PHYSICIANS, 2018-12-11)
BACKGROUND: Parity is widely recognized as protective for breast cancer, but breast cancer risk may be increased shortly after childbirth. Whether this risk varies with breastfeeding, family history of breast cancer, or ...
Cell-type-specific eQTL of primary melanocytes facilitates identification of melanoma susceptibility genes.
(COLD SPRING HARBOR LAB PRESS, PUBLICATIONS DEPT, 2018-11-01)
Most expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) studies to date have been performed in heterogeneous tissues as opposed to specific cell types. To better understand the cell-type-specific regulatory landscape of human ...
A Transcriptome-Wide Association Study Among 97,898 Women to Identify Candidate Susceptibility Genes for Epithelial Ovarian Cancer Risk.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2018-09-15)
Large-scale genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified approximately 35 loci associated with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) risk. The majority of GWAS-identified disease susceptibility variants are located in ...
Association of p16 expression with prognosis varies across ovarian carcinoma histotypes: an Ovarian Tumor Tissue Analysis consortium study.
(WILEY, 2018-10-01)
We aimed to validate the prognostic association of p16 expression in ovarian high-grade serous carcinomas (HGSC) and to explore it in other ovarian carcinoma histotypes. p16 protein expression was assessed by clinical-grade ...
Risks of ovarian, breast, and corpus uteri cancer in women treated with assisted reproductive technology in Great Britain, 1991-2010: data linkage study including 2.2 million person years of observation.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-07-11)
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the risks of ovarian, breast, and corpus uteri cancer in women who have had assisted reproduction. DESIGN: Large, population based, data linkage cohort study. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS: All women ...
Identification and Characterization of Novel Receptor-Interacting Serine/Threonine-Protein Kinase 2 Inhibitors Using Structural Similarity Analysis.
(AMER SOC PHARMACOLOGY EXPERIMENTAL THERAPEUTICS, 2018-05-01)
Receptor-interacting protein kinase 2 (RIP2 or RICK, herein referred to as RIPK2) is linked to the pathogen pathway that activates nuclear factor κ-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NFκB) and autophagic activation. ...
Accountability in the NHS: the impact on cancer care.
(Ecancer Global Foundation, 2018-01-01)
Accountability of service delivery is becoming increasingly complex and never has this been more apparent than in the field of Oncology. Cancer care has an unrivalled level of complexity not only in the heterogeneity of ...
Sox9 regulates cell state and activity of embryonic mouse mammary progenitor cells.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-12-13)
Embryonic mammary cells are a unique population comprised of undifferentiated, highly plastic progenitor cells that create normal mammary tissues. The mammary gland continues to develop after birth from descendants of ...
Oestrogen receptor α AF-1 and AF-2 domains have cell population-specific functions in the mammary epithelium.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-11-09)
Oestrogen receptor α (ERα) is a transcription factor with ligand-independent and ligand-dependent activation functions (AF)-1 and -2. Oestrogens control postnatal mammary gland development acting on a subset of mammary ...
