Analysis of heritability and shared heritability based on genome-wide association studies for thirteen cancer types

Joshua N. Sampson, +448 more
TL;DR: Correlation analysis indicates that the genetic architecture of lung cancer differs between a smoking population of European ancestry and a nonsmoking Asian population, allowing for the possibility that the Genetic etiology for the same disease can vary by population and environmental exposures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Systematic identification of genes with a cancer-testis expression pattern in 19 cancer types.

TL;DR: This study integrates transcriptomics data from multiple databases and systematically identifies 876 new CT genes in 19 cancer types to propose that extremely highly expressed CT genes (EECTGs) are potential drivers activated through epigenetic mechanisms and provide methods for identifying epigenetic-driver genes of cancer, which could serve as targets of future cancer therapies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association of polymorphisms in long non-coding RNA H19 with coronary artery disease risk in a Chinese population.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated for the first time that common polymorphisms of H19 are associated with the risk and severity of CAD in a Chinese population and future studies are needed to explore the underlying mechanisms of the findings.
