Genome-wide association study identifies novel breast cancer susceptibility loci

Douglas F. Easton, +109 more
- 28 Jun 2007 - 
TL;DR: To identify further susceptibility alleles, a two-stage genome-wide association study in 4,398 breast cancer cases and 4,316 controls was conducted, followed by a third stage in which 30 single nucleotide polymorphisms were tested for confirmation.
Journal ArticleDOI

The landscape of cancer genes and mutational processes in breast cancer

Philip J. Stephens, +69 more
- 21 Jun 2012 - 
TL;DR: Strong correlations between mutation number, age at which cancer was diagnosed and cancer histological grade are found, and multiple mutational signatures are observed, including one present in about ten per cent of tumours characterized by numerous mutations of cytosine at TpC dinucleotides.
Journal ArticleDOI

Large-scale genotyping identifies 41 new loci associated with breast cancer risk

Kyriaki Michailidou, +220 more
- 01 Apr 2013 - 
TL;DR: A meta-analysis of 9 genome-wide association studies, including 10,052 breast cancer cases and 12,575 controls of European ancestry, and identified 29,807 SNPs for further genotyping suggests that more than 1,000 additional loci are involved in breast cancer susceptibility.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association analysis identifies 65 new breast cancer risk loci

Kyriaki Michailidou, +396 more
- 02 Nov 2017 - 
TL;DR: A genome-wide association study of breast cancer in 122,977 cases and 105,974 controls of European ancestry and 14,068 cases and 13,104 controls of East Asian ancestry finds that heritability of Breast cancer due to all single-nucleotide polymorphisms in regulatory features was 2–5-fold enriched relative to the genome- wide average.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association between Body-Mass Index and Risk of Death in More Than 1 Million Asians

TL;DR: Underweight was associated with a substantially increased risk of death in all Asian populations, however, the excess risk of died was seen among East Asians but not among Indians and Bangladeshis.
