Journal ArticleDOI

Obesity, metabolic factors and risk of different histological types of lung cancer: A Mendelian randomization study

Robert Carreras-Torres, +64 more
- 08 Jun 2017 - 
TL;DR: The results are consistent with a causal role of fasting insulin and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol in lung cancer etiology, as well as for BMI in squamous cell and small cell carcinoma, and the latter relation may be mediated by a previously unrecognized effect of obesity on smoking behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI

Large-scale association analysis identifies new lung cancer susceptibility loci and heterogeneity in genetic susceptibility across histological subtypes

James D. McKay, +146 more
- 12 Jun 2017 - 
TL;DR: 18 susceptibility loci achieving genome-wide significance are identified, including 10 new loci linked with lung cancer overall and six loci associated with lung adenocarcinoma, highlighting the striking heterogeneity in genetic susceptibility across the histological subtypes of lung cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Shared heritability and functional enrichment across six solid cancers

Xia Jiang, +333 more
TL;DR: The authors use genome-wide association study summary statistics from six cancer types based on 296,215 cases and 301,319 controls of European ancestry to show that solid tumours arising from different tissues share a degree of common germline genetic basis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of susceptibility pathways for the role of chromosome 15q25.1 in modifying lung cancer risk

Xuemei Ji, +133 more
TL;DR: Functional annotation of eQTL analysis results showed that the neuroactive ligand receptor interaction pathway and gated channel activity were involved in lung cancer risk, and provide important insights for the etiology of lung cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Causal relationships between body mass index, smoking and lung cancer: Univariable and multivariable Mendelian randomization

TL;DR: The results highlight the histology‐specific impact of BMI on lung carcinogenesis and imply mediator role of smoking behaviors in the association between BMI and lung cancer.
