Association analyses of more than 140,000 men identify 63 new prostate cancer susceptibility loci

Fredrick R. Schumacher, +207 more
- 11 Jun 2018 - 
TL;DR: A large meta-analysis combining genome-wide and custom high-density genotyping array data identifies 63 new susceptibility loci for prostate cancer, enhancing fine-mapping efforts and providing insights into the underlying biology of PrCa1.
Journal ArticleDOI

Integrated Molecular Characterization of Testicular Germ Cell Tumors

TL;DR: High-dimensional analyses identified distinct molecular patterns that characterized the major recognized histologic subtypes of TGCT: seminoma, embryonal carcinoma, yolk sac tumor, and teratoma, and a subset of pure seminomas defined by KIT mutations, increased immune infiltration, globally demethylated DNA, and decreased KRAS copy number.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trans-ancestry genome-wide association meta-analysis of prostate cancer identifies new susceptibility loci and informs genetic risk prediction

David V. Conti, +254 more
- 04 Jan 2021 - 
TL;DR: This paper conducted a meta-analysis of prostate cancer genome-wide association studies (107,247 cases and 127,006 controls) and identified 86 new genetic risk variants independently associated with prostate cancer risk, bringing the total to 269 known risk variants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lessons learned from additional research analyses of unsolved clinical exome cases

TL;DR: In this article, the authors designed and implemented protocols for the study of cases for which a plausible molecular diagnosis was not achieved in a clinical genomics diagnostic laboratory (i.e., unsolved clinical exomes).
Journal ArticleDOI

Mutations in SPRTN cause early onset hepatocellular carcinoma, genomic instability and progeroid features

TL;DR: In vivo and in vitro characterization of identified mutations in SPRTN has uncovered an essential role for SPRTN in the prevention of DNA replication stress during general DNA replication and in replication-related G2/M-checkpoint regulation.
