TLDR
In a genome-wide association study of 511 ALL cases and 6,661 non-ALL controls, a susceptibility locus for Ph-like ALL is identified and genotype at the GATA3 SNP was associated with early treatment response and risk of ALL relapse, providing insights into interactions between inherited and somatic variants and their role in ALL pathogenesis and prognosis.Abstract:
Recent genomic profiling of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) identified a high-risk subtype with an expression signature resembling that of Philadelphia chromosome-positive ALL and poor prognosis (Ph-like ALL). However, the role of inherited genetic variation in Ph-like ALL pathogenesis remains unknown. In a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of 511 ALL cases and 6,661 non-ALL controls, we identified a susceptibility locus for Ph-like ALL (GATA3, rs3824662; P = 2.17 × 10(-14), odds ratio (OR) = 3.85 for Ph-like ALL versus non-ALL; P = 1.05 × 10(-8), OR = 3.25 for Ph-like ALL versus non-Ph-like ALL), with independent validation. The rs3824662 risk allele was associated with somatic lesions underlying Ph-like ALL (CRLF2 rearrangement, JAK gene mutation and IKZF1 deletion) and with variation in GATA3 expression. Finally, genotype at the GATA3 SNP was also associated with early treatment response and risk of ALL relapse. Our results provide insights into interactions between inherited and somatic variants and their role in ALL pathogenesis and prognosis.read more

Genome-wide association studies of cancer: current insights and future perspectives
TL;DR: Genome-wide association studies have shown that common genetic variation contributes substantially to the heritable risk of many common cancers, and deciphering the functional and biological basis of associations is challenging and is in part a barrier to fully unlocking the potential of GWAS.

TL;DR: A haplotype is identified that preferentially acquires JAK2V617F and confers susceptibility to myeloproliferative neoplasms, suggesting that a certain combination of SNPs may render haplotypes differentially susceptible to somatic mutagenesis.

TL;DR: Genome-wide analysis identified an allele in the JAK2 locus that predisposes to the development ofJAK2V617F-positive MPN, as well as three previously unknown MPN modifier loci, which suggest that germline variation is an important contributor to MPN phenotype and predisposition.

TL;DR: Overall, although GATA3 binding exhibited both shared and cell-specific patterns among various T cell lineages, many genes were either positively or negatively regulated by GATA2 in a cell type-specific manner, suggesting that Gata3-mediated gene regulation depends strongly on cofactors existing in different T cells.
