A non-coding single nucleotide polymorphism at 8q24 drives IDH1-mutant glioma formation

2022-03-10

Abstract excerpt

Establishing causal links between inherited polymorphisms and cancer risk is challenging. Here, we focus on the single nucleotide polymorphism rs55705857 (A>G), which confers a 6-fold increased risk of IDH-mutant low-grade glioma (LGG) and is amongst the highest genetic associations with cancer. By fine-mapping the locus, we reveal that rs55705857 itself is the causal variant and is associated with molecular pathw...
