PMID: 23050049
Int J Mol Epidemiol Genet. 2012;3(3):184-94. Epub 2012 Aug 31.

BACKGROUND: Telomeres cap the ends of chromosomes and help maintain genomic stability and integrity. Telomere length (TL) has been linked to a number of diseases, including a variety of cancers; however, the association between TL and risk for colorectal...

PMID: 24959314
Int J Mol Epidemiol Genet. 2014 May 29;5(2):100-11. eCollection 2014.

BACKGROUND: Candidate pathway approaches in disease association studies often utilize a tagSNP approach to capture genetic variation. In this paper we assess gene expression patterns with SNPs in genes in the CHIEF pathway to help determine their potential functionality.METHODS:...

Effectiveness and Usability of Bioinformatics Tools to Analyze Pathways Associated with miRNA Expression.

Cancer informatics

Cancer Inform. 2015 Oct 29;14:121-30. doi: 10.4137/CIN.S32716. eCollection 2015.

MiRNAs are small, nonprotein-coding RNA molecules involved in gene regulation. While bioinformatics help guide miRNA research, it is less clear how they perform when studying biological pathways. We used 13 criteria to evaluate effectiveness and usability of existing bioinformatics...

Candidate pathway polymorphisms in one-carbon metabolism and risk of rectal tumor mutations.

Curtin K, Ulrich CM, Samowitz WS, Wolff RK, Duggan DJ, Makar KW, Caan BJ, Slattery ML.
PMID: 21537397
Int J Mol Epidemiol Genet. 2011 Jan 01;2(1):1-8. Epub 2010 Nov 05.

We examined candidate polymorphisms in genes involved in the folate-mediated, one-carbon metabolism pathway, DNMT1 1311V, MTHFD1 R134K and R653Q, MTHFR R594Q, MTR D919G, MTRR H595Y and I22M, SHMT1 L474F, SLC19A1 H27R, and TDG G199S, and associations with rectal tumor...

CpG island methylation in colorectal cancer: past, present and future.

Pathology research international

Curtin K, Slattery ML, Samowitz WS.
PMID: 21559209
Patholog Res Int. 2011 Apr 12;2011:902674. doi: 10.4061/2011/902674.

The concept of a CpG island methylator phenotype, or CIMP, quickly became the focus of several colorectal cancer studies describing its clinical and pathological features after its introduction in 1999 by Toyota and colleagues. Further characterization of CIMP in...

Lack of correlation between in silico projection of function and quantitative real-time PCR-determined gene expression levels in colon tissue.

Pharmacogenomics and personalized medicine

Penney RB, Lundgreen A, Yao-Borengasser A, Koroth-Edavana V, Williams S, Wolff R, Slattery ML, Kadlubar S.
PMID: 24101876
Pharmgenomics Pers Med. 2013 Sep 09;6:99-103. doi: 10.2147/PGPM.S49199. eCollection 2013.

There are a number of in silico programs that use algorithms and external web sources to predict the effect of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). While many of these programs have been shown to predict accurately the effect of SNPs...

Exploratory Genome-Wide Interaction Analysis of Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs and Predicted Gene Expression on Colorectal Cancer Risk.

Cancer epidemiology, biomarkers & prevention : a publication of the American Association for Cancer Research, cosponsored by the American Society of Preventive Oncology

Wang X, Su YR, Petersen PS, Bien S, Schmit SL, Drew DA, Albanes D, Berndt SI, Brenner H, Campbell PT, Casey G, Chang-Claude J, Gallinger SJ, Gruber SB, Haile RW, Harrison TA, Hoffmeister M, Jacobs EJ, Jenkins MA, Joshi AD, Li L, Lin Y, Lindor NM, Marchand LL, Martin V, Milne R, Maclnnis R, Moreno V, Nan H, Newcomb PA, Potter JD, Rennert G, Rennert H, Slattery ML, Thibodeau SN, Weinstein SJ, Woods MO, Chan AT, White E, Hsu L, Peters U.

Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev. 2020 Sep;29(9):1800-1808. doi: 10.1158/1055-9965.EPI-19-1018. Epub 2020 Jul 10.

BACKGROUND: Regular use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) is associated with lower risk of colorectal cancer. Genome-wide interaction analysis on single variants (G × E) has identified several SNPs that may interact with NSAIDs to confer colorectal cancer risk,...

Tumor necrosis factor-related genes and colon and rectal cancer.

International journal of molecular epidemiology and genetics

Slattery ML, Lundgreen A, Bondurant KL, Wolff RK.
PMID: 22199996
Int J Mol Epidemiol Genet. 2011;2(4):328-38. Epub 2011 Oct 20.

Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF) is a promoter of inflammation. Genes in the TNF pathway include tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 1A (TNFRSF1A), TNF receptor-associated factor 2 (TRAF2), mitogen activated protein kinase 8 (MAPK8), 14 (MAPK14), and mitogen activated...

Half of miRNAs expressed in colorectal tissue are expressed < 50% of the population. Many infrequently expressed miRNAs have low levels of expression. We hypothesize that less frequently expressed miRNAs, when expressed at higher levels, influence both disease stage...

Dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) can be converted to prostaglandins and leukotrienes. Oxygenation of omega-6 PUFAs generally results in the production of pro-inflammatory mediators, whereas oxygenated products of omega-3 (n-3) PUFAs generally have lower inflammatory activity. We hypothesize that...
