Schoeps A, Rudolph A, Seibold P, Dunning A, Milne R, Bojesen S, et al.
Genet Epidemiol . 2013 Nov; 38(1):84-93. PMID: 24248812
Genes that alter disease risk only in combination with certain environmental exposures may not be detected in genetic association analysis. By using methods accounting for gene-environment (G × E) interaction,...

Jamshidi M, Schmidt M, Dork T, Garcia-Closas M, Heikkinen T, Cornelissen S, et al.
Int J Cancer . 2012 Oct; 132(9):2044-55. PMID: 23034890
Germline variation in the TP53 network genes PRKAG2, PPP2R2B, CCNG1, PIAS1 and YWHAQ was previously suggested to have an impact on drug response in vitro. Here, we investigated the effect...
