Association between novel PLCE1 variants identified in published esophageal cancer genome-wide association studies and risk of squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.
(BMC cancer, 2011-06-20)
Phospholipase C epsilon 1 (PLCE1) (an effector of Ras) belonging to the phospholipase
family plays crucial roles in carcinogenesis and progression of several cancers, including
squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck ...
A genome-wide association study of upper aerodigestive tract cancers conducted within the INHANCE consortium.
(PLoS genetics, 2011-03-17)
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been successful in identifying common
genetic variation involved in susceptibility to etiologically complex disease. We
conducted a GWAS to identify common genetic variation involved ...
Pre-miRNA variants as predictors of clinical outcome in patients with squamous cell carcinomas of the nonoropharynx.
(Oncotarget, 2016-05)
Functional polymorphisms of miRNAs may affect the function and target expression of
miRNAs, which can, in turn, affect the biological activity, etiology, and prognosis
of cancer. We hypothesized that four common polymorphisms ...
Significance of microRNA-related variants in susceptibility to recurrence of oropharyngeal cancer patients after definitive radiotherapy.
(Oncotarget, 2016-06)
Common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in miRNAs may affect miRNA functions
and their target expression and thus may affect biological activities and cancer etiology
as well as prognosis. Thus, we determined whether ...
MicroRNA variants increase the risk of HPV-associated squamous cell carcinoma of the oropharynx in never smokers.
(PloS one, 2013-01)
Both microRNAs and human papillomavirus (HPV) infection play an important role in
the development and progression of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). In addition,
microRNAs affect all facets of the immune/inflammation ...
Association between a rare novel TP53 variant (rs78378222) and melanoma, squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck and lung cancer susceptibility in non-Hispanic Whites.
(Journal of cellular and molecular medicine, 2013-07)
Recently, several studies have investigated the association between a newly reported
rare functional single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in TP53 (rs78378222) and cancer
risk, but generated inconsistent findings. The present ...
