Detectable clonal mosaicism and its relationship to aging and cancer

Kevin B. Jacobs, +208 more
- 01 Jun 2012 - 
TL;DR: In an analysis of 31,717 cancer cases and 26,136 cancer-free controls from 13 genome-wide association studies, this paper observed large chromosomal abnormalities in a subset of clones in DNA obtained from blood or buccal samples.
Journal ArticleDOI

A multi-stage genome-wide association study of bladder cancer identifies multiple susceptibility loci

Nathaniel Rothman, +113 more
- 01 Nov 2010 - 
TL;DR: Two new regions associated with bladder cancer on chromosomes 22q13.1, 19q12 and 2q37.1 are identified and previous candidate associations for the GSTM1 deletion and a tag SNP for NAT2 acetylation status are validated, and interactions with smoking in both regions are found.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ovarian Cancer Risk Factors by Histologic Subtype: An Analysis From the Ovarian Cancer Cohort Consortium

Nicolas Wentzensen, +54 more
TL;DR: Most established risk factors were more strongly associated with nonserous carcinomas, which demonstrate challenges for risk prediction of serous cancers, the most fatal subtype.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ovarian cancer and smoking: individual participant meta-analysis including 28 114 women with ovarian cancer from 51 epidemiological studies

Eugenia E. Calle, +144 more
- 01 Apr 2012 - 
TL;DR: The excess of mucinous ovarian cancers in smokers is roughly counterbalanced by the deficit of endometrioid and clear-cell ovarian cancers, suggesting that smoking-related risks by tumour subtype is important for understanding ovarian carcinogenesis.
