Combined analysis of keratinocyte cancers identifies novel genome-wide loci - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 31174203
ABSTRACT: Abstract The keratinocyte cancers (KC), basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) are the most common cancers in fair-skinned people. KC treatment represents the second highest cancer healthcare expenditure in Australia. Increasing our understanding of the genetic architecture of KC may provide new avenues for prevention and treatment. We first conducted a series of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of KC across three European ancestry datasets from Australia, Europe and USA, and used linkage disequilibrium (LD) Score regression (LDSC) to estimate their pairwise genetic correlations. We employed a multiple-trait approach to map genes across the combined set of KC GWAS (total N = 47 742 cases, 634 413 controls). We also performed meta-analyses of BC

Lifestyle context
Concrete actions anchored to the cited research. We do not prescribe, we describe.
Lifestyle
-
excessive midday sun exposure Moderate
UV radiation is the primary environmental risk factor for basal cell carcinoma; genetic predisposition amplifies absolute risk
limit sun 10am-4pm; use SPF 30+ daily; wear protective clothing
Screening
-
annual dermatologic screening for basal cell carcinoma High
rs10102591 G allele carriers have 11% increased basal cell carcinoma risk; early detection improves outcomes
annual professional skin examination by dermatologist
