Assessment of variation in immunosuppressive pathway genes reveals TGFBR2 to be associated with risk of clear cell ovarian cancer.
Oncotarget ·doi:10.18632/oncotarget.10215

BackgroundRegulatory T (Treg) cells, a subset of CD4+ T lymphocytes, are mediators of immunosuppression in cancer, and, thus, variants in genes encoding Treg cell immune molecules could be associated with ovarian cancer.MethodsIn a populati…

Polymorphisms in inflammation pathway genes and endometrial cancer risk.
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-12-0903

BackgroundExperimental and epidemiologic evidence have suggested that chronic inflammation may play a critical role in endometrial carcinogenesis.MethodsTo investigate this hypothesis, a two-stage study was carried out to evaluate single-nu…
