Prostate
. 2020 Sep;
80(15):1365-1372.
PMID: 32894795
Background: Prostate cancer (PC) risk increases with African ancestry and a history of sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Also, single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in toll-like receptor (TLR) genes influence PC risk. This...

Cancer Immunol Res
. 2019 Sep;
7(9):1384-1389.
PMID: 31481520
Individuals of African descent are disproportionately affected by specific complex diseases, such as breast and prostate cancer, which are driven by both biological and nonbiological factors. In the case of...

BMC Cancer
. 2018 Apr;
18(1):421.
PMID: 29653561
Background: Dysregulation of microRNA (miRNA) expression is associated with hallmarks of aggressive tumor phenotypes, e.g., enhanced cell growth, proliferation, invasion, and anchorage independent growth in prostate cancer (PCa). Methods: Serum-based...

Gene
. 2017 Sep;
636:96-102.
PMID: 28903065
African ancestry and obesity are associated with higher risk of prostate cancer (PC). In a pilot study, we explored interactions between obesity (as measured by waist to hip ratio (WHR))...

Hered Cancer Clin Pract
. 2013 Dec;
11(1):19.
PMID: 24359571
Purpose: Although case-control studies have evaluated the role of variant inflammatory-related loci in prostate cancer, their impact is virtually unknown among men of African descent. To address this, we evaluated...

Front Immunol
. 2013 Nov;

PMID: 24194738
Mounting evidence suggests that imbalances in immune regulation contribute to cell transformation. Women of African descent are an understudied group at high risk for developing aggressive breast cancer (BrCa). Therefore,...

Prostate Cancer
. 2013 Mar;
2013:560857.
PMID: 23476788
Prostate cancer (CaP) is the leading cancer among men of African descent in the USA, Caribbean, and Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). The estimated number of CaP deaths in SSA during 2008...

Hered Cancer Clin Pract
. 2012 Nov;
10(1):16.
PMID: 23168091
Unlabelled: Background: Chemokine and chemokine receptors play an essential role in tumorigenesis. Although chemokine-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are associated with various cancers, their impact on prostate cancer (PCA) among...

Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev
. 2010 Nov;
20(1):23-32.
PMID: 21071540
Background: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified numerous prostate cancer susceptibility alleles, but these loci have been identified primarily in men of European descent. There is limited information about the...

Biochem Genet
. 2010 Oct;
49(1-2):73-82.
PMID: 20931357
Genetic variations in xenobiotic metabolizing genes can influence susceptibility to many environmentally induced cancers. Inheritance of the N-acetyltransferase 1 allele (NAT1*10), linked with increased metabolic activation of pro-carcinogens, is associated...
