Abstract excerpt
AIM: To identify functional lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) risk SNPs. MATERIALS & METHODS: Eighteen validated LUAD risk SNPs (p ≤ 5 × 10-8) and 930 SNPs in high linkage disequilibrium (r2 > 0.5) were integrated with epigenomic information from primary human alveolar epithelial cells. Enhancer-associated SNPs likely affecting transcription factor-binding sites were predicted. Three SNPs were functionally investigated...
