Identification of 12 new susceptibility loci for different histotypes of epithelial ovarian cancer

Catherine M. Phelan, +443 more
- 01 May 2017 - 
TL;DR: Integrated analyses of genes and regulatory biofeatures at each locus predicted candidate susceptibility genes, including OBFC1, a new candidate susceptibility gene for low-grade and borderline serous EOC.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Population-Based Study of Genes Previously Implicated in Breast Cancer

Chunling Hu, +60 more
TL;DR: In this paper, population-based estimates of the risk of breast cancer associated with germline pathogenic variants in cancer-predisposition genes are critically needed for risk assessment and risk assessment.
Journal ArticleDOI

CD25 Blockade Depletes and Selectively Reprograms Regulatory T Cells in Concert with Immunotherapy in Cancer Patients

TL;DR: It is concluded that CD25 blockade depletes and selectively reprograms Tregs in concert with active immune therapy in cancer patients, suggesting a mechanism to target cancer-associated T Regs while avoiding autoimmunity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Common breast cancer-predisposition alleles are associated with breast cancer risk in BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers

Antonis Antoniou, +137 more
TL;DR: Differences in the effects of the FGFR2 and MAP3K1 SNPs between BRCA1 and BRCa2 carriers point to differences in the biology of BRC a1 and bRCA2 breast cancer tumors and confirm the distinct nature of breast cancer in BRC A1 mutation carriers.
