  • Thirty new loci for age at menarche identified by a meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies

    • To identify loci for age at menarche, we performed a meta-analysis of 32 genome-wide association studies in 87,802 women of European descent, with replication in up to 14,731 women. In addition to the known loci at LIN28B (P = 5.4 × 10⁻⁶⁰) and 9q31.2 (P = 2.2 × 10⁻³³), we identified 30 new menarche loci (all P < 5 × 10⁻⁸) and found suggestive evidence for a further 10 loci (P < 1.9 × 10⁻⁶). The new loci included four previously associated with body mass index (in or near FTO, SEC16B, TRA2B and TMEM18), three in or near other genes implicated in energy homeostasis (BSX, CRTC1 and MCHR2) and three in or near genes implicated in hormonal regulation (INHBA, PCSK2 and RXRG). Ingenuity and gene-set enrichment pathway analyses identified coenzyme A and fatty acid biosynthesis as biological processes related to menarche timing.

  • The emerging role of FK506-binding proteins as cancer biomarkers: a focus on FKBPL
  • 2011
  • Ingår i: Biochemical Society Transactions. - 1470-8752 .- 0300-5127. ; 39, s. 663-668
  • Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
    • FKBPs (FK506-binding proteins) have long been recognized as key regulators of the response to immunosuppressant drugs and as co-chaperones of steroid receptor complexes. More recently, evidence has emerged suggesting that this diverse protein family may also represent cancer biomarkers owing to their roles in cancer progression and response to treatment. FKBPL (FKBP-like) is a novel FKBP with roles in GR (glucocorticoid receptor), AR (androgen receptor) and ER (oestrogen receptor) signalling. FKBPL binds Hsp90 (heat-shock protein 90) and modulates translocation, transcriptional activation and phosphorylation of these steroid receptors. It has been proposed as a novel prognostic and predictive biomarker, where high levels predict for increased recurrence-free survival in breast cancer patients and enhanced sensitivity to endocrine therapy. Since this protein family has roles in a plethora of signalling pathways, its members represent novel prognostic markers and therapeutic targets for cancer diagnosis and treatment.
