Genetic variation at 11q23.1 confers colorectal cancer risk by dysregulation of colonic tuft cell transcriptional activator POU2AF2
28 Nov 2024
Abstract excerpt
Background Common genetic variation at 11q23.1 is associated with colorectal cancer (CRC) risk, exerting local expression quantitative trait locus (cis-eQTL) effects on POU2AF2 , COLCA1 and POU2AF3 genes. However, complex linkage disequilibrium and correlated expression has hindered elucidation of the mechanisms by which genetic variants impart underlying CRC risk. Objective Undertake an interdisciplinary...
