Ten recently identified associations between nsSNPs and colorectal cancer could not be replicated in German families.

چکیده
Ten non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (nsSNPs), which were recently associated with colorectal cancer risk in a comprehensive, array based study (AKAP9 M463I, DKK3 G335R, AMPD1 Q12X, LIPC L356F, PSMB9 V32I, THBS1 N700S, CA6 S90G, ASCC3 C1995S, DHX36 S416C and CPA4 G303C) were re-evaluated in the present study based on 626 German familial non-HNPCC colorectal cancer patients and 736 healthy controls. No associations of any of the 10 nsSNPs with colorectal cancer could be replicated. The combined analyses indicated that further research based on additional independent samples is required.

Introduction & Objectives: Vitamin D receptor (VDR), which is involved in regulating cell growth and proliferation, may contribute to the development of colorectal cancer. Polymorphisms in the VDR gene may influence the expression or function of the VDR protein. The purpose of this study was to examine the association between the polymorphism and colorectal cancer. Materials & Methods: In th...

More than two decades ago, Henry T. Lynch reported a hereditary non polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) which is seen in some families with dominant mode of inheritance, also know as Lynch Syndrome type I and II. This form to hereditary colorectal cancer has an early age of onset (Less than 45 years) with predominantly proximal colonic involvement (type I) and can also be associated with extrac...
متن کاملNull Results in Brief GWAS-Identified Common Variants for Obesity Are Not Associated with the Risk of Developing Colorectal Cancer
Background:Observational studies have consistently associated obesitywith colorectal cancer risk. Because both traits are genetically determined and share some metabolic biomarkers, we hypothesized that obesityrelated polymorphisms could also influence the risk of developing colorectal cancer. Methods:We conducted a comprehensive population-based case–control study in 1,792 German colorectal ca...
متن کاملInvestigating the biomarker role of piRNAs in the diagnosis of colorectal cancer
Background & objectives: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the most common gastric cancer and third lethal cancer worldwide. Despite development in diagnostic and treatment methods, due to the lack of typical symptoms in the early stages, most patients are diagnosed in the end stages. Therefore, finding simple, inexpensive, highly sensitive and specific diagnostic methods for early detection and prog...
متن کاملEffect of EZH2 Inhibition on Colorectal Cancer Cells: an In Vitro Study
Recently, the epigenetic modifications have been recognized as a regulator of gene expression in various cancers. EZH2 gene is one the most important component of the PRC2 complex. Overexpression of EZH2 was identified in multiple cancers that considered more attractive the EZH2 role as an oncogene. Some studies report that EZH2 contributes to various aspects of colorectal cancer (CRC). However...
