Endometriosis in Carriers of a Pathogenic Variant in BRCA1 or BRCA2: A Descriptive Analysis of a Large Multicentral BRCA Carrier Cohort
Current oncology (Toronto, Ont.) ·doi:10.3390/curroncol32120675

Background: Endometriosis affects an estimated 10% of reproductive-aged women and is associated with increased ovarian cancer risk. While BRCA1/2 mutations are established risk factors for ovarian cancer, their association with endometriosi…

Genetic overlap between endometriosis and endometrial cancer: evidence from cross‐disease genetic correlation and GWAS meta‐analyses
Cancer medicine ·doi:10.1002/cam4.1445

Abstract Epidemiological, biological, and molecular data suggest links between endometriosis and endometrial cancer, with recent epidemiological studies providing evidence for an association between a previous diagnosis of endometriosis and…

Cell-type-specific enrichment of risk-associated regulatory elements at ovarian cancer susceptibility loci
Human molecular genetics ·doi:10.1093/hmg/ddv101

Understanding the regulatory landscape of the human genome is a central question in complex trait genetics. Most single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with cancer risk lie in non-protein-coding regions, implicating regulatory DN…
