Associations between variants in KITLG, SPRY4, BAK1, and DMRT1 and pediatric germ cell tumorsJenny N Poynter
Division of Pediatric Epidemiology and Clinical Research, Department of Pediatrics, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN 55455, USA
Genes Chromosomes Cancer 51:266-71. 2012..01). Associations were mostly similar when stratified by sex. This is the first study to suggest that these loci may also be important in susceptibility to GCTs in the adolescent (KITLG, SPRY4, and BAK1) and pediatric (BAK1) age groups...
Trends in incidence and survival of pediatric and adolescent patients with germ cell tumors in the United States, 1975 to 2006Jenny N Poynter
Division of Pediatric Epidemiology and Clinical Research, Department of Pediatrics, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55455, USA
Cancer 116:4882-91. 2010..To the authors' knowledge, few studies to date have evaluated trends in pediatric GCTs. Results from these analyses may provide clues to the etiology of GCTs...
Reproductive factors and risk of contralateral breast cancer by BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation status: results from the WECARE studyJenny N Poynter
Department of Preventive Medicine, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA, USA
Cancer Causes Control 21:839-46. 2010..In this study, we evaluated the association between these factors and CBC risk among BRCA1 and BRCA2 (BRCA1/2) mutation carriers and non-carriers...
Genetic variation in the vitamin D receptor (VDR) and the vitamin D-binding protein (GC) and risk for colorectal cancer: results from the Colon Cancer Family RegistryJenny N Poynter
Department of Preventive Medicine, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, California, USA
Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev 19:525-36. 2010..Overall, our results do not provide evidence for a role of common genetic variants in VDR or GC in susceptibility to CRC...
Family history of cancer and malignant germ cell tumors in children: a report from the Children's Oncology GroupJenny N Poynter
Department of Pediatrics, Division of Pediatric Epidemiology and Clinical Research, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN 55455, USA
Cancer Causes Control 21:181-9. 2010..46, 95% CI 0.22-0.96). These sex and cancer site specific associations should be confirmed in additional studies as they may provide clues to the etiology of pediatric GCT...
Associations between smoking, alcohol consumption, and colorectal cancer, overall and by tumor microsatellite instability statusJenny N Poynter
Department of Preventive Medicine, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, California, USA
Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev 18:2745-50. 2009..Reports have suggested that these associations may differ by tumor molecular subtype, with stronger associations for microsatellite unstable (MSI-H) tumors...
A candidate gene study of folate-associated one carbon metabolism genes and colorectal cancer riskA Joan Levine
USC Keck School of Medicine, Department of Preventive Medicine, Genetic Epidemiology, NRT 1450 Biggy Street Room 1509A, Los Angeles, CA 90033, USA
Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev 19:1812-21. 2010..Folate-associated one-carbon metabolism (FOCM) may play an important role in colorectal carcinogenesis. Variation in FOCM genes may explain some of the underlying risk of colorectal cancer...
Genes involved with folate uptake and distribution and their association with colorectal cancer riskJane C Figueiredo
Department of Preventive Medicine, Keck School of Medicine, University of Southern California, 1450 Biggy Street Room 1509J, Los Angeles, CA 90033, USA
Cancer Causes Control 21:597-608. 2010..In conclusion, we found no significant evidence that genetic variants in FOLR1, GGH, FPGS and SLC19A1 are associated with the risk of colorectal cancer...
Risk of contralateral breast cancer associated with common variants in BRCA1 and BRCA2: potential modifying effect of BRCA1/BRCA2 mutation carrier statusJane C Figueiredo
Department of Preventive Medicine, Keck School of Medicine, University of Southern California, Harlyne J Norris Cancer Research Tower, 1450 Biggy Street Room 1509J, Los Angeles, CA 90033, USA
Breast Cancer Res Treat 127:819-29. 2011..The association between common variants in BRCA1 and BRCA2 and risk of CBC may differ depending on BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carrier status...
Genetic variability in the MTHFR gene and colorectal cancer risk using the colorectal cancer family registryA Joan Levine
USC Keck School of Medicine, Department of Preventive Medicine, Genetic Epidemiology, NRT 1450 Biggy Street, Room 1509A, Los Angeles, CA 90033, USA
Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev 19:89-100. 2010..The MTHFR C677T TT genotype is associated with a 15% to 18% reduction in colorectal cancer risk, but it is not clear if other variants of the gene are associated with colorectal cancer risk...
Molecular characterization of MSI-H colorectal cancer by MLHI promoter methylation, immunohistochemistry, and mismatch repair germline mutation screeningJenny N Poynter
Department of Preventive Medicine, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA 90033 9176, USA
