0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Out of 17 genes investigated, 15 were found to be significantly associated with the risk of cancer: four genes were shared by all three malignancies (ARNTL, CLOCK, RORA and RORB), two by breast and lung cancer (CRY1 and CRY2) and three by prostate and lung cancer (NPAS2, NR1D1 and PER3), whereas four genes were specific for lung cancer (ARNTL2, CSNK1E, NR1D2 and PER2) and two for breast cancer (PER1, RORC). 29455641 2018

Disease: Breast Carcinoma
Breast Carcinoma
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Study distribution by tumor was as follows: breast cancer (n=15), prostate cancer (n=3), pancreatic cancer (n=2), non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (n=2), glioma (n=1), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (n=1), colorectal cancer (n=1), non-small cell lung cancer (n=1) and ovarian cancer (n=1).We identified 10 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) significantly associated with cancer risk: NPAS2 rs10165970 (mixed and breast cancer shiftworkers), rs895520 (mixed), rs17024869 (breast) and rs7581886 (breast); CLOCK rs3749474 (breast) and rs11943456 (breast); RORA rs7164773 (breast and breast cancer postmenopausal), rs10519097 (breast); RORB rs7867494 (breast cancer postmenopausal), PER3 rs1012477 (breast cancer subgroups) and assessed the level of quality evidence to be intermediate. 28177907 2017

Breast Carcinoma
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Neuronal PAS domain protein2 (NPAS2), which is the largest circadian gene, has been proved to be a novel prognostic biomarker in breast cancer and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. 24978311 2014

Breast Carcinoma
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE In women with three consecutive night shifts, a reduced risk of breast cancer was associated with carriage of variant alleles of SNPs in CLOCK (rs3749474), BMAL1 (rs2278749), BMAL2 (rs2306074), CSNK1E (rs5757037), NPAS2 (rs17024926), ROR-b (rs3903529, rs3750420), MTNR1A (rs131113549) and PER3 (rs1012477). 23822714 2013

Disease: Breast Carcinoma
Breast Carcinoma
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Circadian (clock) genes have been linked with several functions relevant to cancer, and epidemiologic research has suggested relationships with breast cancer risk for variants in NPAS2, CLOCK, CRY2 and TIMELESS. 23725643 2013

Disease: Breast Carcinoma
Breast Carcinoma
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE However, when accounting for potential effect modification, rs23051560 (Ala394Thr) in the largest circadian gene, Neuronal PAS domain protein 2 (NPAS2) was most strongly associated with breast cancer risk (nominal test for interaction p-value = 0.0005; 10,000-permutation-based main-effects p-value among women with < 24 months of shift-work = 0.003). 22473669 2012

Disease: Breast Carcinoma
Breast Carcinoma
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs2305160 in Neuronal PAS domain protein 2 (NPAS2), the largest circadian gene, was identified as a breast cancer susceptibility locus. 21140207 2011
CUI: C0678222
Disease: Breast Carcinoma
Breast Carcinoma
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE DNA extracted from 348 breast cancer tissue samples was analyzed for NPAS2 genotype using the TaqMan allelic discrimination assay. 19649706 2010
CUI: C0678222
Disease: Breast Carcinoma
Breast Carcinoma
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Two genetic association studies recently conducted by our lab have shown that a missense mutation in neuronal PAS domain protein 2 (NPAS2), a core circadian gene and transcriptional regulator, is significantly associated with risk of breast cancer and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. 18819933 2008
CUI: C0678222
Disease: Breast Carcinoma
Breast Carcinoma
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE This is the first evidence demonstrating a role of the circadian gene NPAS2 in human breast cancer, suggesting that genetic variations in circadian genes might be a novel panel of biomarkers for breast cancer risk. 17453337 2008
