Breast cancer in neurofibromatosis type 1: overrepresentation of unfavourable prognostic factors
<div><h3>Abstract</h3><div><h4>BACKGROUND: </h4><p>An increased breast cancer incidence and poor survival have been reported for women with neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1). To explain the poor survival, we aimed to link the ...
The role of polygenic risk and susceptibility genes in breast cancer over the course of life
Polygenic risk scores (PRS) for breast cancer have potential to improve risk prediction, but there is limited information on their utility in various clinical situations. Here we show that among 122,978 women in the FinnGen ...
IL-6 and other biomarkers as predictors of severity in COVID-19
<p>Objective<br></p><p>Cytokine release syndrome is suggested to be the most important mechanism triggering acute respiratory distress syndrome and end organ damage in COVID-19. The severity of disease may be measured by ...
Rare protein-altering variants in ANGPTL7 lower intraocular pressure and protect against glaucoma
Protein-altering variants that are protective against human disease provide in vivo validation of therapeutic targets. Here we use genotyping data from UK Biobank (n = 337,151 unrelated White British individuals) and FinnGen ...
Genetic architecture of human plasma lipidome and its link to cardiovascular disease
Understanding genetic architecture of plasma lipidome could provide better insights into lipid metabolism and its link to cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Here, we perform genome-wide association analyses of 141 lipid species ...
Trends in presentation, treatment and survival of 1777 patients with colorectal cancer over a decade: a Biobank study
<p><b>Background:</b>
Most survival data in colorectal cancer (CRC) is derived from clinical
trials or register-based studies. Hospital Biobanks, linked with
hospital electronic records, could serve as a data-gathering ...
Gastric cancer: immunohistochemical classification of molecular subtypes and their association with clinicopathological characteristics
<p>Gastric cancer is traditionally divided into intestinal and diffuse
histological subtypes, but recent molecular analyses have led to novel
classification proposals based on genomic alterations. While the
intestinal- ...
Decorin Expression in Human Vulva Carcinoma: Oncosuppressive Effect of Decorin cDNA Transduction on Carcinoma Cells
<p>The extracellular matrix proteoglycan decorin is well-known for its oncosuppressive activity. Here, decorin expression was examined in human vulva carcinoma tissue samples and in primary and commercial cell lines ...
