Age-specific genome-wide association study in glioblastoma identifies increased proportion of 'lower grade glioma'-like features associated with younger age.
Genome-wide association study of glioma subtypes identifies specific differences in genetic susceptibility to glioblastoma and non-glioblastoma tumors.
We identified LIG4 rs7325927 and BTBD2 rs11670188 as predictors of STS in GBM and CCDC26 rs10464870 and rs891835, HMGA2 rs1563834, and RTEL1 rs2297440 as predictors of LTS.
CCDC26 (8q24) region polymorphisms are strongly associated with oligodendroglial tumor risk (rs4295627, odds ratio [OR] = 2.05, P = 8.3 × 10(-11)) but not glioblastoma risk.
