Journal ArticleDOI
Toll-like receptor genes and their association with colon and rectal cancer development and prognosis.
TL;DR: Although few independent associations with TLR genes were observed, significant interaction of TLR2 and TLR3 with hypothesized lifestyle factors was observed, and multiple SNPs in TLR 2 andTLR4 were associated with colon cancer survival.
Journal ArticleDOI
MicroRNA profiles in colorectal carcinomas, adenomas and normal colonic mucosa: variations in miRNA expression and disease progression
Martha L. Slattery,Jennifer S. Herrick,Daniel F. Pellatt,John R. Stevens,Lila E. Mullany,Erica Wolff,Michael Hoffman,Wade S. Samowitz,Roger K. Wolff +8 more
TL;DR: Roughly 27% of miRNAs are commonly expressed in colonic tissue; of these, over 86% are dysregulated between carcinoma and normal tissue when applying a false discovery rate of 0.05.
Journal ArticleDOI
Global hypomethylation is common in prostate cancer cells: a quantitative predictor for clinical outcome?
Arthur R. Brothman,Gregory P. Swanson,Teresa Maxwell,Jiang Cui,Kelley J. Murphy,Jennifer S. Herrick,V O Speights,Jorge Isaac,L. Ralph Rohr +8 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that loss of methylation is a feature of prostate cancer, and partial gain ofmethylation (presumably at promoters of specific genes) is associated with clinical outcome and is measurable using whole-cell assays.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic variation in a metabolic signaling pathway and colon and rectal cancer risk: mTOR, PTEN, STK11, RPKAA1, PRKAG2, TSC1, TSC2, PI3K and Akt1
Martha L. Slattery,Jennifer S. Herrick,Abbie Lundgreen,Francis A. Fitzpatrick,Karen Curtin,Roger K. Wolff +5 more
TL;DR: Genetic variation in a predefined candidate pathway for colorectal cancer contributes to both colon and rectal cancer risk, and associations appear to be strongest for CIMP+ and MSI+ tumors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Telomere length, telomere-related genes, and breast cancer risk: the breast cancer health disparities study.
Andrew J. Pellatt,Roger K. Wolff,Gabriela Torres-Mejía,Esther M. John,Esther M. John,Jennifer S. Herrick,Abbie Lundgreen,Kathy B. Baumgartner,Anna R. Giuliano,Lisa M. Hines,Laura Fejerman,Richard M. Cawthon,Martha L. Slattery +12 more
TL;DR: Associations between telomere length (TL) and TL‐related genes and risk of breast cancer risk in an admixed population of US non‐Hispanic white and Hispanic and Mexican women are evaluated and support for an association is provided.
