Abstract

The molecular mechanisms leading to heart failure in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy are unclear. Here the authors show that NF-κB is activated in the heart of dystrophin-deficient mice and that its ablation rescues cardiac function through chromatin remodeling and activation of gene expression.

Abstract

Non-medullary thyroid cancers include papillary and follicular subtypes, and are the most common type of thyroid cancer. Here, the authors extend previous work by performing a large genome-wide association study and find five novel loci associated with this disease.

Abstract

The great majority of thyroid cancers are of the non-medullary type. Here we report findings from a genome-wide association study of non-medullary thyroid cancer, including in total 3,001 patients and 287,550 controls from five study groups of European descent. Our results yield five novel loci (all with Pcombined, We thank the patients whose contribution made this work possible. The study was supported in part by grants from the National Institutes of Health: CA16058 (to the Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center) and CA168505 (to M.D.R. and A.d.l.C.). This work was supported in part by The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center start-up funds (to E.M.S.); an American Thyroid Association research grant (to E.M.S.), National Institutes of Health (NIH) grant U01 DE019765-01 (to E.M.S.); and Cancer Center Support Grant CA016672 to the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. This study makes use of data generated by the Genome of the Netherlands Project (GoNL). A full list of the investigators is available from http://www.nlgenome.nl. Funding for the GoNL project was provided by the Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research under award number 184021007, dated 9 July 2009 and made available as a Rainbow Project of the Biobanking and Biomolecular Research Infrastructure Netherlands (BBMRI-NL). The sequencing was carried out in collaboration with the Beijing Institute for Genomics (BGI). This study also makes use of data generated by the GTEx Consortium and we are grateful for early stage sharing of RNA-seq and genotypic data. The following acknowledgement refers to the GTEx data: The Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) Project was supported by the Common Fund of the Office of the Director of the National Institutes of Health. Additional funds were provided by the NCI, NHGRI, NHLBI, NIDA, NIMH and NINDS. Donors were enrolled at Biospecimen Source Sites funded by NCI\SAIC-Frederick, Inc. (SAIC-F) subcontracts to the National Disease Research Interchange (10XS170), Roswell Park Cancer Institute (10XS171) and Science Care, Inc. (X10S172). The Laboratory, Data Analysis and Coordinating Center (LDACC) was funded through a contract (HHSN268201000029C) to The Broad Institute, Inc. Biorepository operations were funded through an SAIC-F subcontract to Van Andel Institute (10ST1035). Additional data repository and project management were provided by SAIC-F (HHSN261200800001E). The Brain Bank was supported by supplements to University of Miami grants DA006227 and DA033684 and to contract N01MH000028. Statistical Methods development grants were made to the University of Geneva (MH090941 and MH101814), the University of Chicago (MH090951, MH090937, MH101820 and MH101825), the University of North Carolina—Chapel Hill (MH090936 and MH101819), Harvard University (MH090948), Stanford University (MH101782), Washington University St Louis (MH101810) and the University of Pennsylvania (MH101822).
