Fine-mapping of the HNF1B multicancer locus identifies candidate variants that mediate endometrial cancer risk. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Common variants in the hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 homeobox B (HNF1B) gene are associated with the risk of Type II diabetes and multiple cancers. Evidence to date indicates that cancer risk may be mediated via genetic or epigenetic effects on HNF1B gene ...
