概括

分析单独的SNP而不是单独的哈普类型,揭示了15个新的子宫内膜癌风险位置. 这种类型组全基因组关联研究 (GWAS) 方法确定了对子宫内膜癌易感性更高风险的遗传因素.

科学领域:

遗传学遗传学是一种遗传学.
在瘤学瘤学.
流行病学流行病学

背景情况:

使用单核酸多形态 (SNP) 的全基因组关联研究 (GWAS) 已经确定了有限的子宫内膜癌风险位置.
哈普洛型分析,检查SNP的组合,可以提供更全面的了解遗传易感性.
以往基于SNP的GWAS可能低估了子宫内膜癌的全部遗传风险因素.

研究的目的:

为了调查单个类型分析是否可以识别新型子宫内膜癌风险位点,这些位点在基于SNP的研究中错过了.
评估特定类型与子宫内膜癌风险的关联.
探索欧洲人口中创始人单元类型的潜力.

主要方法:

进行了一项两阶段的单 haplotype 全基因组关联研究 (GWAS).
发现阶段涉及1,116名瑞典子宫内膜癌患者和5,021名对照患者,使用滑窗分析 (1-25个SNP) 和后勤回归.
复制阶段使用了两个欧洲队列 (比利时和德国) 来验证在发现阶段识别的新基位.

主要成果:

在瑞典队列中发现了15个新的子宫内膜腺癌候选风险位,赔率比率 (OR) 从1.6到3.3.
鉴定到的位点在复制队伍中显示出支持,尽管样本大小较小.
与单个变异GWAS发现相比,哈普洛型分析确定了子宫内膜癌位点,与单个变异GWAS发现相比,具有更高的风险.

结论:

哈普洛型分析是一种强大的方法,用于发现新的子宫内膜癌风险位置.
鉴定到的新型位点表明,对子宫内膜癌易感性有重要的遗传成分.
基于这些发现,对欧洲人口中的创始人单元类型的进一步研究是有必要的.

Genome-wide Association Studies-GWAS

Genome-wide Association Studies-GWAS

Genome-wide association studies or GWAS are used to identify whether common SNPs are associated with certain diseases. Suppose specific SNPs are more frequently observed in individuals with a particular disease than those without the disease. In that case, those SNPs are said to be associated with the disease. Chi-square analysis is performed to check the probability of the allele likely to be associated with the disease.
GWAS does not require the identification of the target gene involved in...

lncRNA - Long Non-coding RNAs

lncRNA - Long Non-coding RNAs

In humans, more than 80% of the genome gets transcribed. However, only around 2% of the genome codes for proteins. The remaining part produces non-coding RNAs which includes ribosomal RNAs, transfer RNAs, telomerase RNAs, and regulatory RNAs, among other types. A large number of regulatory non-coding RNAs have been classified into two groups depending upon their length – small non-coding RNAs, such as microRNA, which are less than 200 nucleotides in length, and long non-coding RNA...
