Discovery of common and rare genetic risk variants for colorectal cancer

Jeroen R. Huyghe, +224 more
- 01 Jan 2019 - 
TL;DR: Genome-wide association analyses based on whole-genome sequencing and imputation identify 40 new risk variants for colorectal cancer, including a strongly protective low-frequency variant at CHD1 and loci implicating signaling and immune function in disease etiology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Novel Common Genetic Susceptibility Loci for Colorectal Cancer

Stephanie L. Schmit, +198 more
TL;DR: This article identified 42 loci (P < 5x10−8) associated with risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) and expanded consortium efforts facilitating the discovery of these loci.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comprehensive analysis of copy number aberrations in microsatellite stable colon cancer in view of stromal component

TL;DR: Although CNA are frequent events in microsatellite stable CRC, few focal recurrent regions were found and these aberrations have strong effects on gene expression and contribute to deregulate relevant cancer pathways.
