Genome-wide association study of intracranial aneurysm identifies a new association on chromosome 7.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Common variants have been identified using genome-wide association studies which contribute to intracranial aneurysms (IA) susceptibility. However, it is clear that the variants identified to date do not account for the estimated genetic contribution to disease risk. METHODS Initial analysis was performed in a discovery sample of 2617 IA cases and 2548 controls of white...
متن کاملA genome-wide association study of marginal zone lymphoma shows association to the HLA region
Marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) is the third most common subtype of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Here we perform a two-stage GWAS of 1,281 MZL cases and 7,127 controls of European ancestry and identify two independent loci near BTNL2 (rs9461741, P=3.95 × 10(-15)) and HLA-B (rs2922994, P=2.43 × 10(-9)) in the HLA region significantly associated with MZL risk. This is the first evidence that genetic...
متن کاملFollicular Lymphoma
The article entitled “Renal Infiltration of Follicular Lymphoma”, written by Petkovic et al. and published in one of the recent issues of your journal, was quite interesting [1]. Here we would like to emphasize some relevant points. Extranodal disease is relatively common; any organ may be involved. The most common sites of extranodal disease include the bone marrow, skin, gastrointestinal trac...
متن کاملPathogenesis of follicular lymphoma.
Follicular lymphoma (FL) is presented as a germinal centre B cell lymphoma that is characterized by an indolent clinical course, but remains - paradoxically - largely incurable to date. The last years have seen significant progress in our understanding of FL lymphomagenesis, which is a multi-step process beginning in the bone marrow with the hallmark t(14;18)(q32;q21) translocation. The pathobi...
متن کاملPathology of follicular lymphoma.
Follicular lymphoma (FL) is a heterogeneous disease, and there are many different subgroups, such as in terms of age of onset, involved organ (especially extranodal sites such as gastrointestinal tract) and genetic abnormality. Grade 3B is currently regarded as a distinct entity by molecular genetic analyses, but the independence of Grade 3A remains unclear. Variations of clinical course are kn...
