A multi-level investigation of the genetic relationship between endometriosis and ovarian cancer histotypes
2021-07-02
Abstract excerpt
Endometriosis is associated with increased risk of epithelial ovarian cancers (EOCs). Data from large endometriosis and EOC genome-wide association meta-analyses were used to estimate the genetic correlation and evaluate the causal relationship between genetic liability to endometriosis and major EOC histotypes, and to identify shared susceptibility loci. We estimated a significant genetic correlation (r g ) betwe...
