New genetic loci link adipose and insulin biology to body fat distribution.
Nature ·doi:10.1038/nature14132

Body fat distribution is a heritable trait and a well-established predictor of adverse metabolic outcomes, independent of overall adiposity. To increase our understanding of the genetic basis of body fat distribution and its molecular links…

article 2013
Circulating prolactin levels and risk of epithelial ovarian cancer
Cancer causes & control : CCC ·doi:10.1007/s10552-013-0156-6

PurposeIndirect evidence from experimental and epidemiological studies suggests that prolactin may be involved in ovarian cancer development. However, the relationship between circulating prolactin levels and risk of ovarian cancer is unkno…

Circulating inflammation markers and risk of epithelial ovarian cancer.
Cancer epidemiology, biomarkers & prevention : a publication of the American Association for Cancer Research, cosponsored by the American Society of Preventive Oncology ·doi:10.1158/1055-9965.epi-10-1180

BackgroundFactors contributing to chronic inflammation appear to be associated with increased risk of ovarian cancer. The purpose of this study was to assess the association between circulating levels of inflammation mediators and subsequen…

C-reactive protein and ovarian cancer: a prospective study nested in three cohorts (Sweden, USA, Italy).
Cancer causes & control : CCC ·doi:10.1007/s10552-009-9330-2

ObjectivesInflammatory processes may influence the risk of epithelial ovarian cancer, but available epidemiological evidence is limited and indirect. Circulating C-reactive protein (CRP), a sensitive marker of inflammation, may serve as a d…
