Genome-wide association study identifies a second prostate cancer susceptibility variant at 8q24.

TL;DR: A second genetic variant in the 8q24 region that, in conjunction with another variant recently discovered, accounts for about 11%–13% of prostate cancer cases in individuals of European descent and 31% of cases in African Americans is reported.

Genetic variants in STAT4 and HLA-DQ genes confer risk of hepatitis B virus-related hepatocellular carcinoma

TL;DR: To identify genetic susceptibility loci for hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in the Chinese population, a genome-wide association study in 2,514 chronic HBV carriers followed by a 2-stage validation among 6 independent populations of chronicHBV carriers showed that HCC risk was significantly associated with two independent loci.
