A multi-level investigation of the genetic relationship between endometriosis and ovarian cancer histotypes
Cell reports. Medicine ·doi:10.1016/j.xcrm.2022.100542

Endometriosis is associated with increased risk of epithelial ovarian cancers (EOCs). Using data from large endometriosis and EOC genome-wide association meta-analyses, we estimate the genetic correlation and evaluate the causal relationshi…

Abstract Endometriosis is associated with increased risk of epithelial ovarian cancers (EOCs). Data from large endometriosis and EOC genome-wide association meta-analyses were used to estimate the genetic correlation and evaluate the causal…

Risk of ovarian cancer and the NF-κB pathway: genetic association with IL1A and TNFSF10
Cancer research ·doi:10.1158/0008-5472.CAN-13-1051

A missense single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the immune modulatory gene IL1A has been associated with ovarian cancer risk (rs17561). Although the exact mechanism through which this SNP alters risk of ovarian cancer is not clearly unde…
