Heritability And Genetic Correlations For Hormone-Sensitive Cancers In The UK Biobank: A Molecular Evidence of Shared Aetiology

2021-10-14

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Hormone-related cancers, including cancers of the breast, prostate, ovaries, uterine, and thyroid, globally contribute to the majority of cancer incidence. We hypothesize that hormone-sensitive cancers share common genetic risk factors that have rarely been investigated by previous genomic studies of site-specific cancers. To test this hypothesis, we analysed five hormone-sensitive canc...
