A statistically significant interaction was observed for each of 2 SNPs in the 8q24 region (rs620861 and rs16902094), 25(OH)D concentration, and fatal prostate cancer on both multiplicative and additive scales (P ≤ 0.001).
These included correlations between an intergenic CpG site at Chr8:128393157 and the prostate cancer SNP rs16902094 (ρ = -0.54; P = 9.7 × 10(-7); q = 0.002), a PRNCR1 CpG site at Chr8:128167809 and the prostate cancer SNP rs1456315 (ρ = 0.52; P = 1.4 × 10(-6); q = 0.002), and two POU5F1B CpG sites and several prostate/colorectal cancer SNPs (for Chr8:128498051 and rs6983267, ρ = 0.46; P = 2.0 × 10(-5); q = 0.01).
