摘要: Genome-wide association studies have recently identified ten common genetic variants associated with colorectal cancer susceptibility, several suggesting the involvement of components transforming growth factor beta (TGFbeta) superfamily signalling pathway. To date, no causal sequence been identified, and risk seems to be mediated through effects on gene regulation. Several markers are located close poorly characterized genes or in deserts, raising challenges for elucidating mechanisms susceptibility. Disease-associated variation offers potential refine stratification within populations enable more targeted disease prevention strategies.
