Association between single nucleotide polymorphisms in ERCC4 and risk of squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.
(PloS one, 2012-01)
Excision repair cross-complementation group 4 gene (ERCC4/XPF) plays an important
role in nucleotide excision repair and participates in removal of DNA interstrand
cross-links and DNA double-strand breaks. Single nucleotide ...
Semi-quantitative MRI biomarkers of knee osteoarthritis progression in the FNIH biomarkers consortium cohort - Methodologic aspects and definition of change.
(BMC musculoskeletal disorders, 2016-11-10)
To describe the scoring methodology and MRI assessments used to evaluate the cross-sectional
features observed in cases and controls, to define change over time for different
MRI features, and to report the extent of changes ...
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 ...
Polymorphisms in the SULF1 gene are associated with early age of onset and survival of ovarian cancer.
(Journal of experimental & clinical cancer research : CR, 2011-01-07)
SULF1 (sulfatase 1) selectively removes the 6-O-sulphate group from heparan sulfate,
changing the binding sites for extracellular growth factors. SULF1 expression has
been reported to be decreased in various cancers, including ...
Genetic variants in fanconi anemia pathway genes BRCA2 and FANCA predict melanoma survival.
(The Journal of investigative dermatology, 2015-02)
Cutaneous melanoma (CM) is the most lethal skin cancer. The Fanconi anemia (FA) pathway
involved in DNA crosslink repair may affect CM susceptibility and prognosis. Using
data derived from published genome-wide association ...
Genetic variants of NOXA and MCL1 modify the risk of HPV16-associated squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.
(BMC cancer, 2012-05)
The cooperation between phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate induced protein 1 (NOXA) and
myeloid cell leukemia 1 (MCL1) is critical in the intrinsic apoptotic pathway. Human
papillomavirus 16 (HPV16), by inducing p53 and pRb-E2F ...
Site disparities in apoptotic variants as predictors of risk for second primary malignancy in patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.
(BMC cancer, 2016-02-08)
FAS/FASL promoter variants are considered in altering transcriptional activity of
those genes and consequently alter regulation of cell death. However, no studies have
investigated whether tumor sites contribute ...
Single-nucleotide polymorphisms of stemness genes predicted to regulate RNA splicing, microRNA and oncogenic signaling are associated with prostate cancer survival.
(Carcinogenesis, 2018-07)
Prostate cancer (PCa) is a clinically and molecularly heterogeneous disease, with
variation in outcomes only partially predicted by grade and stage. Additional tools
to distinguish indolent from aggressive disease are needed. ...
Sinus Node Dysfunction Is Associated With Higher Symptom Burden and Increased Comorbid Illness: Results From the ORBIT-AF Registry.
(Clin Cardiol, 2016-02)
BACKGROUND: Patients with sinus node dysfunction (SND) have increased risk of atrial
tachyarrhythmias, including atrial fibrillation (AF). To date, treatment patterns
and outcomes of patients with SND and AF have not been ...
PhenX RISING: real world implementation and sharing of PhenX measures.
(BMC Med Genomics, 2014-03-20)
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this manuscript is to describe the PhenX RISING network
and the site experiences in the implementation of PhenX measures into ongoing population-based
genomic studies. METHODS: Eighty PhenX measures ...
