Open AccessLifetime ovulatory years and ovarian cancer gene expression profiles
Greater ovulatory years is associated with increased ovarian cancer risk. Although ovulation leads to an acute pro-inflammatory local environment, how long-term exposure to ovulation impacts ovarian carcinogen...

Article
Mitochondrial DNA sequence variation and risk of meningioma
Risk factors for meningioma include female gender, African American race, high body mass index (BMI), and exposure to ionizing radiation. Although genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified two nuc...

Open AccessNonlinear mixed-effects models for modeling in vitro drug response data to determine problematic cancer cell lines
Cancer cell lines (CCLs) have been widely used to study of cancer. Recent studies have called into question the reliability of data collected on CCLs. Hence, we set out to determine CCLs that tend to be overly...

Heterogeneous expression of cytokines accounts for clinical diversity and refines prognostication in CMML
Chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) is a clinically heterogeneous neoplasm in which JAK2 inhibition has demonstrated reductions in inflammatory cytokines and promising clinical activity. We hypothesize that...

Open AccessAdult height is associated with increased risk of ovarian cancer: a Mendelian randomisation study
Observational studies suggest greater height is associated with increased ovarian cancer risk, but cannot exclude bias and/or confounding as explanations for this. Mendelian randomisation (MR) can provide evid...
