Popis: | We empirically investigated genomic clusters associated with both height and postmenopausal breast cancer (BC) or colorectal cancer (CRC) (or both) in the Netherlands Cohort Study to unravel shared underlying mechanisms between height and these cancers. The Netherlands Cohort Study (1986–2006) includes 120,852 participants (case-cohort study: nsubcohort = 5,000; 20.3 years of follow-up). Variants in clusters on chromosomes 2, 4, 5, 6 (2 clusters), 10, and 20 were genotyped using toenail DNA. Cluster-specific genetic risk scores were modeled in relation to height and postmenopausal BC and CRC risk using age-adjusted linear regression and multivariable-adjusted Cox regression, respectively. Only the chromosome 10 cluster risk score was associated with all 3 phenotypes in the same sex (women); that is, it was associated with increased height (βcontinuous = 0.34, P = 0.014), increased risk of hormone-receptor–positive BC (for estrogen-receptor–positive BC, hazard ratio (HRcontinuous score) = 1.10 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.02, 1.20); for progesterone-receptor–positive BC, HRcontinuous score = 1.15 (95% CI: 1.04, 1.26)), and increased risk of distal colon (HRcontinuous score = 1.13, 95% CI: 1.01, 1.27) and rectal (HRcontinuous score = 1.14, 95% CI: 0.99, 1.30) cancer. The chromosome 10 cluster variants were all annotated to the zinc finger MIZ-type containing 1 gene (ZMIZ1), which is involved in androgen receptor activity. This suggests that hormone-related growth mechanisms could influence both height and postmenopausal BC and CRC. |
