Section of Cancer Genetics, Institute of Cancer Research, Sutton SM2 5NG, UK
Mutagenesis 18:377-85. 2003..Additional well-designed studies based on sample sizes commensurate with the detection of small genotypic risks may allow a more definitive conclusion...
Case-control study of familial lung cancer risks in UK womenAthena Matakidou
Section of Cancer Genetics, Institute of Cancer Research, Sutton, Surrey, United Kingdom
Int J Cancer 116:445-50. 2005..23; 95% CI, 0.65-2.31). Results confirm previous findings and support the role of a familial predisposition to lung cancer...
Systematic review of the relationship between family history and lung cancer riskA Matakidou
Section of Cancer Genetics, Institute of Cancer Research, Sutton, Surrey, UK
Br J Cancer 93:825-33. 2005..The limitations of the currently published epidemiological studies to infer genetic susceptibility are discussed...
Prognostic significance of folate metabolism polymorphisms for lung cancerA Matakidou
Section of Cancer Genetics, Institute of Cancer Research, Brookes Lawley Building, Sutton, Surrey SM2 5NG, UK
Br J Cancer 97:247-52. 2007..36; 1.06-1.75). While there is evidence that variation in the folate metabolism genes may influence prognosis from lung cancer, current data are insufficiently robust to distinguish individual patient outcome...
Further observations on the relationship between the FGFR4 Gly388Arg polymorphism and lung cancer prognosisA Matakidou
Section of Cancer Genetics, Institute of Cancer Research, Surrey, UK

Lung Unit, Royal Marsden Hospital, Downs Road, Sutton, Surrey SM2 5PT, UK
Br J Cancer 94:18-21. 2006..This change is probably multifactorial and may be due to the increased use of platinum-based treatment and improved supportive care...
Lack of evidence that p53 Arg72Pro influences lung cancer prognosis: an analysis of survival in 619 female patientsAthena Matakidou
Section of Cancer Genetics, Brookes Lawley Building, Institute of Cancer Research, Sutton, Surrey SM2 5NG, UK

Variants in the GH-IGF axis confer susceptibility to lung cancerMatthew F Rudd
Section of Cancer Genetics, Institute of Cancer Research, Sutton, Surrey, UK
Genome Res 16:693-701. 2006..0205). Our study provides evidence that inherited predisposition to lung cancer is in part mediated through low-penetrance alleles and specifically identifies variants in GH-IGF and DNA damage-response pathways with risk of lung cancer...
Evaluation of xeroderma pigmentosum XPA, XPC, XPD, XPF, XPB, XPG and DDB2 genes in familial early-onset lung cancer predispositionAthena Matakidou
Section of Cancer Genetics, Institute of Cancer Research, Sutton, Surrey, United Kingdom
Int J Cancer 119:964-7. 2006..Two of the novel missense changes are predicted to be functionally deleterious. Our findings are compatible with XP heterozygosity being a risk factor for lung cancer susceptibility...
Thymidylate synthase expression and prognosis in colorectal cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysisSanjay Popat
Section of Cancer Genetics, Institute of Cancer Research, Sutton SM2 5NG, UK
J Clin Oncol 22:529-36. 2004..To derive a more precise estimate of the prognostic significance of TS expression, we have reviewed published studies and carried out a meta-analysis...

BMC Cancer 8:244. 2008....
Risk of non-medullary thyroid cancer influenced by polymorphic variation in the thyroglobulin geneAthena Matakidou
Section of Cancer Genetics, Institute of Cancer Research, Sutton, Surrey SM2 5NG, UK
Carcinogenesis 25:369-73. 2004..2-3.3), respectively. Although the risk of NMTC associated with the TgQ2511R R-allele is modest, its high prevalence in the general population suggests it may make a significant contribution to the incidence of NMTC...
Genetic variation in the DNA repair genes is predictive of outcome in lung cancerAthena Matakidou
Section of Cancer Genetics, Institute of Cancer Research, Sutton, UK
Hum Mol Genet 16:2333-40. 2007..Our data indicate that the pathway-based approach has the potential to generate prognostic markers of clinical outcome...
Genome-wide association scan of tag SNPs identifies a susceptibility locus for lung cancer at 15q25.1Christopher I Amos
Department of Epidemiology, The University of Texas M D Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, Texas 77030, USA
Nat Genet 40:616-22. 2008..Haplotype analysis was consistent with there being a single risk variant in this region. We conclude that variation in a region of 15q25.1 containing nicotinic acetylcholine receptors genes contributes to lung cancer risk...
