چکیده
BACKGROUND Variation at TP63 has recently been shown to be associated with lung adenocarcinoma in the Asian population. METHODS To investigate how this finding translates to the European population we compared the genotypes of SNPs annotating the TP63 locus at 3q28 in 4,462 lung cancer patients, including 911 with adenocarcinoma, and 8,235 controls from the United Kingdom. RESULTS A statistically significant association between adenocarcinoma risk and SNP genotype was shown: rs10937405, OR = 1.21, P = 1.82 × 10(-4); rs17429138, OR = 1.23, P = 7.49 × 10(-5); and rs4396880, OR = 1.21, P = 2.03 × 10(-4). Haplotype analysis was consistent with a single TP63 risk locus defined by SNPs rs10937405, rs17429138, and rs4396880. While no association between SNPs and small cell lung cancer was shown, the rs10937405 and rs439680 associations were significant for squamous cancer (respective P-values, 0.0022 and 0.02). CONCLUSIONS These findings show TP63 variation is a risk factor for the development of lung adenocarcinoma in the UK population. Furthermore, they provide additional insight into the subtype-specificity of the 3q28 lung cancer association. IMPACT Our data confirm the association of 3q28 with lung adenocarcinoma and that this association is not confined to the Asian population. Elucidating the functional basis of this association will be contingent on future fine mapping of the TP63 loci.

Gene Regulation Network Based Analysis Associated with TGF-beta Stimulation in Lung Adenocarcinoma Cells
Background: Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β is over-expressed in a wide variety of cancers such as lung adenocarcinoma. TGF-β plays a major role in cancer progression through regulating cancer cell proliferation and remodeling of the tumor micro-environment. However, it is still a great challenge to explain the phenotypic effects caused by TGF-β stimulation and the effect of TGF-β stimulatio...

Background and Aim: Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer-related deaths wordwide and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), especially adenocarcinoma, is the most common type of lung cancer. Most cases of adenocarcinoma will occur due to KRAS mutations or EGFR mutations and amplifications. The polymorphism rs884225 which is associated with increased EGFR expression is located in the 3'UT...
