Common variants on 9q22.33 and 14q13.3 predispose to thyroid cancer in European populations
2009
Julius Gudmundsson and colleagues report the association of two SNPs on chromosomes 9 and 14 with thyroid cancer in European populations. The variants are near FOXE1 and NKX2-1, both good biological candidates, and individuals who are homozygous for both risk variants have a 5.7-fold greater risk of thyroid cancer.
