Cancer Causes Control 23:1359-66. 2012..As serum vitamin D levels vary by season, we sought to determine whether the expression of genes on the vitamin D pathway, assessed in prostate tumor tissue, do the same...
A review of the relationship between tooth loss, periodontal disease, and cancerMara S Meyer
Department of Epidemiology, Harvard School of Public Health, Kresge Building, Boston, MA, 02115, USA
Cancer Causes Control 19:895-907. 2008..This review provides a summary of these findings, discusses possible biological mechanisms involved, and raises methodological issues related to studying these relationships...
Genetic variation in RNASEL associated with prostate cancer risk and progressionMara S Meyer
Department of Epidemiology, Harvard School of Public Health, Boston, MA, USA
Carcinogenesis 31:1597-603. 2010..The results of this study support a link between RNASEL and prostate cancer and suggest that the association may be mediated through inflammation. These novel findings warrant replication in future studies...

Department of Epidemiology, Harvard School of Public Health, Boston, MA, USA
Am J Clin Nutr 93:586-93. 2011..Although experimental evidence supports a role for zinc in prostate carcinogenesis, epidemiologic data are inconsistent; no data on cancer-specific survival have been reported...
