▶Genetic determinants of telomere length and risk of pancreatic cancer: A PANDoRA studyAssociationN=6,700Campa D. et al.(2019)· International Journal of Cancer
This case-control association study analyzed 10 telomere-length-associated SNPs in relation to pancreatic cancer risk in 2,374 cases and 4,326 controls from the PANDoRA consortium. The strongest association was with TERT-rs2736100 (OR=1.54, p=1.54×10⁻¹⁰), and a novel protective association was found with NAF1-rs7675998 (OR=0.80, p=1.87×10⁻⁶). A genetic telomere length score (teloscore) combining these variants reached genome-wide significance for PDAC risk (p=2.98×10⁻⁹ for highest vs. lowest quintile).
▶Meta-analysisN=1,513,186Unknown
Mendelian randomization study of 16 genetic variants in 10 telomere-related loci using summary data from 420,081 cancer cases and 1,093,105 controls. Genetically increased telomere length was associated with higher cancer risk (glioma OR 5.27 [3.15-8.81], lung adenocarcinoma 3.19 [2.40-4.22], neuroblastoma 2.98 [1.92-4.62]) but reduced risk for cardiovascular diseases and some immune conditions.
About ACYP2
Acylphosphatase can hydrolyze the phosphoenzyme intermediate of different membrane pumps, particularly the Ca2+/Mg2+-ATPase from sarcoplasmic reticulum of skeletal muscle. Two isoenzymes have been isolated, called muscle acylphosphatase and erythrocyte acylphosphatase on the basis of their tissue localization. This gene encodes the muscle-type isoform (MT). An increase of the MT isoform is associated with muscle differentiation. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]
