Multiple independent variants at the TERT locus are associated with telomere length and risks of breast and ovarian cancer

Stig E. Bojesen, +455 more
- 01 Apr 2013 - 
TL;DR: Using the Illumina custom genotyping array iCOGs, SNPs at the TERT locus in breast, ovarian and BRCA1 mutation carrier cancer cases and controls and leukocyte telomere measurements are analyzed to find associations cluster into three independent peaks.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide association studies identify four ER negative-specific breast cancer risk loci

Montserrat Garcia-Closas, +287 more
- 01 Apr 2013 - 
TL;DR: SNPs at four loci were associated with ER-negative but not ER-positive breast cancer (P > 0.05), providing further evidence for distinct etiological pathways associated with invasive ER- positive and ER- negative breast cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inflammation and prognosis in colorectal cancer.

TL;DR: Inflammatory cell response at the invasive border is a relevant prognostic indicator and could be easily incorporated into the routine evaluation of histopathological specimens.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide association analysis identifies three new breast cancer susceptibility loci

Maya Ghoussaini, +197 more
- 22 Jan 2012 - 
TL;DR: Three new breast cancer risk loci are identified at 12p11, 12q24 and 21q21, which lie in regions that contain strong plausible candidate genes: PTHLH has a crucial role in mammary gland development and the establishment of bone metastasis in breast cancer, and NRIP1 encodes an ER cofactor and has a role in the regulation of breast cancer cell growth.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immunoassay for intact amino-terminal propeptide of human type I procollagen.

TL;DR: In this paper, the intact, trimeric amino-terminal propeptide of human type I procollagen (PINP) and its Col1 domain was isolated from the pleural fluids of cancer patients by a combination of ion-exchange, gel-filtration, and reversed-phase chromatographies.
