Common sequence variants on 2p15 and Xp11.22 confer susceptibility to prostate cancer
Urologic Oncology: Seminars and Original Investigations(2008)
摘要
We conducted a genome-wide SNP association study on prostate cancer on over 23,000 Icelanders, followed by a replication study including over 15,500 individuals from Europe and the United States. Two newly identified variants were shown to be associated with prostate cancer: rs5945572 on Xp11.22 and rs721048 on 2p15 (odds ratios (OR) = 1.23 and 1.15; P = 3.9 × 10 −13 and 7.7 × 10 −9 , respectively). The 2p15 variant shows a significantly stronger association with more aggressive, rather than less aggressive, forms of the disease.
