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…

Association of vitamin D levels and risk of ovarian cancer: a Mendelian randomization study.
International journal of epidemiology ·doi:10.1093/ije/dyw207

BackgroundIn vitro and observational epidemiological studies suggest that vitamin D may play a role in cancer prevention. However, the relationship between vitamin D and ovarian cancer is uncertain, with observational studies generating con…

No clinical utility of KRAS variant rs61764370 for ovarian or breast cancer.
Gynecologic Oncology ·doi:10.1016/j.ygyno.2015.04.034

ObjectiveClinical genetic testing is commercially available for rs61764370, an inherited variant residing in a KRAS 3' UTR microRNA binding site, based on suggested associations with increased ovarian and breast cancer risk as well as with …

Common Genetic Variation in Circadian Rhythm Genes and Risk of Epithelial Ovarian Cancer (EOC)
Journal of genetics and genome research ·doi:10.23937/2378-3648/1410017

Disruption in circadian gene expression, whether due to genetic variation or environmental factors (e.g., light at night, shiftwork), is associated with increased incidence of breast, prostate, gastrointestinal and hematologic cancers and g…

2015
Identification of six new susceptibility loci for invasive epithelial ovarian cancer.
Nature genetics ·doi:10.1038/ng.3185

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified 12 epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) susceptibility alleles. The pattern of association at these loci is consistent in BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers who are at high risk of EOC. After…

Molecular subtypes of uterine leiomyosarcoma and correlation with clinical outcome.
Neoplasia (New York, N.Y.) ·doi:10.1016/j.neo.2014.12.007

The molecular etiology of uterine leiomyosarcoma (ULMS) is poorly understood, which accounts for the wide disparity in outcomes among women with this disease. We examined and compared the molecular profiles of ULMS and normal myometrium (NL…

article 2015
Shared genetics underlying epidemiological association between endometriosis and ovarian cancer
Human molecular genetics ·doi:10.1093/hmg/ddv306

Epidemiological studies have demonstrated associations between endometriosis and certain histotypes of ovarian cancer, including clear cell, low-grade serous and endometrioid carcinomas. We aimed to determine whether the observed associatio…

2014
Consortium analysis of gene and gene-folate interactions in purine and pyrimidine metabolism pathways with ovarian carcinoma risk.
Molecular nutrition & food research ·doi:10.1002/mnfr.201400068

ScopeWe reevaluated previously reported associations between variants in pathways of one-carbon (1-C) (folate) transfer genes and ovarian carcinoma (OC) risk, and in related pathways of purine and pyrimidine metabolism, and assessed interac…

2014
Genome-wide association study of subtype-specific epithelial ovarian cancer risk alleles using pooled DNA.
Human genetics ·doi:10.1007/s00439-013-1383-3

Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is a heterogeneous cancer with both genetic and environmental risk factors. Variants influencing the risk of developing the less-common EOC subtypes have not been fully investigated. We performed a genome-wid…
