A new GWAS and meta-analysis with 1000Genomes imputation identifies novel risk variants for colorectal cancer
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of colorectal cancer (CRC) have identified 23 susceptibility loci thus far. Analyses of previously conducted GWAS indicate additional risk loci are yet to be discovered. To identify novel CRC susceptibility loci, we conducted a new GWAS and performed a meta-analysis with five published GWAS (totalling 7,577 cases and 9,979 controls of European ancestry), i...
متن کاملGenome-wide association analysis of more than 120,000 individuals identifies 15 new susceptibility loci for breast cancer
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and large-scale replication studies have identified common variants in 79 loci associated with breast cancer, explaining ~ 4% of the familial risk of the disease. To identify new susceptibility loci, we performed a meta-analysis of GWAS, comprising 5,748 breast cancer cases and 8,084 controls together with 46,785 cases and 42,892 controls from 4 studies ge...
متن کاملA novel colorectal cancer risk locus at 4q32.2 identified from an international genome-wide association study.
Only a fraction of colorectal cancer heritability is explained by known risk-conferring genetic variation. This study was designed to identify novel risk alleles in Europeans. We conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis of colorectal cancer in participants from a population-based case-control study in Israel (n = 1616 cases, 1329 controls) and a consortium study from the C...
متن کاملGenome wide association identified colorectal cancer susceptibility loci and colorectal cancer risk in Lynch syndrome
Background Recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified several common low-risk variants for colorectal cancer. Although some of the GWAS were enriched for young onset and family history positive colorectal cancer cases, it is not clear if these variants modify colorectal cancer risk for people with Lynch syndrome. In a case-unaffected sibling analysis of population and clinic ...
متن کاملFine-Mapping of Common Genetic Variants Associated with Colorectal Tumor Risk Identified Potential Functional Variants
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified many common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with colorectal cancer risk. These SNPs may tag correlated variants with biological importance. Fine-mapping around GWAS loci can facilitate detection of functional candidates and additional independent risk variants. We analyzed 11,900 cases and 14,311 controls in the Genetics a...
