Genome-wide association study implicates immune dysfunction in the development of Hodgkin lymphoma.
(AMER SOC HEMATOLOGY, 2018-11-08)
To further our understanding of inherited susceptibility to Hodgkin lymphoma (HL), we performed a meta-analysis of 7 genome-wide association studies totaling 5325 HL cases and 22 423 control patients. We identify 5 new HL ...
Genome-wide association study of classical Hodgkin lymphoma identifies key regulators of disease susceptibility.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-12-01)
Several susceptibility loci for classical Hodgkin lymphoma have been reported. However, much of the heritable risk is unknown. Here, we perform a meta-analysis of two existing genome-wide association studies, a new genome-wide ...
Prostate-specific antigen velocity in a prospective prostate cancer screening study of men with genetic predisposition.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-03-20)
This corrects the article DOI: 10.1038/bjc.2017.429.
Fine-mapping of prostate cancer susceptibility loci in a large meta-analysis identifies candidate causal variants.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2018-06-11)
Prostate cancer is a polygenic disease with a large heritable component. A number of common, low-penetrance prostate cancer risk loci have been identified through GWAS. Here we apply the Bayesian multivariate variable ...
BRCA2 Hypomorphic Missense Variants Confer Moderate Risks of Breast Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2017-06-01)
Breast cancer risks conferred by many germline missense variants in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes, often referred to as variants of uncertain significance (VUS), have not been established. In this study, associations between ...
Genome-wide association study of glioma subtypes identifies specific differences in genetic susceptibility to glioblastoma and non-glioblastoma tumors.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2017-05-01)
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have transformed our understanding of glioma susceptibility, but individual studies have had limited power to identify risk loci. We performed a meta-analysis of existing GWAS and two ...
Germline variation at 8q24 and prostate cancer risk in men of European ancestry.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2018-11-05)
Chromosome 8q24 is a susceptibility locus for multiple cancers, including prostate cancer. Here we combine genetic data across the 8q24 susceptibility region from 71,535 prostate cancer cases and 52,935 controls of European ...
Prognostic value of automated KI67 scoring in breast cancer: a centralised evaluation of 8088 patients from 10 study groups.
(BIOMED CENTRAL LTD, 2016-10-18)
BACKGROUND: The value of KI67 in breast cancer prognostication has been questioned due to concerns on the analytical validity of visual KI67 assessment and methodological limitations of published studies. Here, we investigate ...
Breast cancer risk following Hodgkin lymphoma radiotherapy in relation to menstrual and reproductive factors.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2013-06-11)
BACKGROUND: Women treated with supradiaphragmatic radiotherapy (sRT) for Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) at young ages have a substantially increased breast cancer risk. Little is known about how menarcheal and reproductive factors ...
The PROFILE Feasibility Study: Targeted Screening of Men With a Family History of Prostate Cancer.
(WILEY, 2016-06-01)
BACKGROUND: A better assessment of individualized prostate cancer (PrCa) risk is needed to improve screening. The use of the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level for screening in the general population has limitations and ...
