SNP rs727479 was also among those most strongly associated with circulating E₂ concentrations in 2767 post-menopausal controls (P=7.4x10^-8). The observed endometrial cancer odds ratio per rs727479 A-allele (1.15, CI=1.11-1.21) is compatible with that predicted by the observed effect on E₂ concentrations (1.09, CI=1.03-1.21), consistent with the hypothesis that endometrial cancer risk is driven by E₂. From 28 candidate-causal SNPs, 12 co-located with three putative gene-regulatory elements and their risk alleles associated with higher CYP19A1 expression in bioinformatical analyses. For both phenotypes, the associations with rs727479 were stronger among women with a higher BMI (P_interaction=0.034 and 0.066 respectively), suggesting a biologically plausible gene-environment interaction.]]> Wed 19 Apr 2023 16:42:45 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:28241 Wed 11 Apr 2018 10:43:55 AEST ]]>
