We therefore used a two-stage approach to evaluate common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 173 genes involved in stromal epithelial interactions in the Ovarian Cancer Association Consortium (OCAC). In the discovery stage, cases with epithelial ovarian cancer (n = 675) and controls (n = 1,162) were genotyped at 1,536 SNPs using an Illumina GoldenGate assay. Based on Positive Predictive Value estimates, three SNPs-PODXL rs1013368, ITGA6 rs13027811, and MMP3 rs522616-were selected for replication using TaqMan genotyping in up to 3,059 serous invasive cases and 8,905 controls from 16 OCAC case-control studies. An additional 18 SNPs with Pper-allele<0.05 in the discovery stage were selected for replication in a subset of five OCAC studies (n = 1,233 serous invasive cases; n = 3,364 controls). The discovery stage associations in PODXL, ITGA6, and MMP3 were attenuated in the larger replication set (adj. Pper-allele >= 0.5). However genotypes at TERT rs7726159 were associated with ovarian cancer risk in the smaller, five-study replication study (Pper-allele=0.03). Combined analysis of the discovery and replication sets for this TERT SNP showed an increased risk of serous ovarian cancer among non-Hispanic whites [adj. ORper-allele 1.14 (1.04-1.24) p = 0.003]. Our study adds to the growing evidence that, like the 8q24 locus, the telomerase reverse transcriptase locus at 5p15.33, is a general cancer susceptibility locus. date: 2010-07-08 publisher: PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE official_url: http://dx.doi.org/10.1371/journal.pgen.1001016 vfaculties: VFPHS oa_status: green language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green article_type_text: Article verified: verified_batch elements_source: Web of Science elements_id: 246519 doi: 10.1371/journal.pgen.1001016 language_elements: EN lyricists_name: Gayther, Simon lyricists_name: Gentry-Maharaj, Aleksandra lyricists_name: Menon, Usha lyricists_name: Ramus, Susan lyricists_id: SAGAY60 lyricists_id: AGENT07 lyricists_id: UMENO29 lyricists_id: SRAMU33 full_text_status: public publication: PLOS GENET volume: 6 number: 7 article_number: e1001016 issn: 1553-7390 citation: Johnatty, SE; Beesley, J; Chen, XQ; Macgregor, S; Duffy, DL; Spurdle, AB; deFazio, A; ...
