Simple Summary This study targeted the identification of rare variants in Middle Eastern
papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) through an exome-wide association study. It was found …

Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is the most common type of thyroid cancer. With the rapid
development of genome-wide association studies (GWAS), many genome variants …

Background Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) demonstrates high heritability and a low
somatic mutation burden relative to other cancers. Therefore, the genetic risk predisposing …

Background: Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is reported to be highly heritable in
epidemiological studies. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have uncovered several …

Context Genome-wide association studies have identified germline variants associated with
elevated PTC risk. It is also known that somatic driver mutations contribute to PTC …

Thyroid cancer is the most common cancer in Korea. Several susceptibility loci of
differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) were identified by previous genome-wide association …

To characterize the somatic alterations of papillary thyroid carcinomas (PTC) in Chinese
patients, we performed the next-generation-sequencing (NGS) study of the tumor-normal …

The first two genome wide association studies (GWAS) of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC)
detected five variants associated with PTC. Two of them (rs944289 and rs116909374) are …

Background Five single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were previously reported to be
associated with thyroid cancer in European populations in two genome-wide association …

Background: Two recent genome-wide association studies (GWASs) identified five single
nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs; rs965513, rs944289, rs966423, rs2439302, and …
