      Kristiansen, Wenche; Andreassen, Kristine Engen; Karlsson, Robert; Aschim, Elin Leirvoll; Bremnes, Roy M.; Dahl, Olav; Fosså, Sophie Dorothea; Klepp, Olbjørn; Langberg, Carl W.; Solberg, Arne; Tretli, Steinar; Adami, Hans-Olov; Wiklund, Fredrik; Grotmol, Tom; Haugen, Trine Berit (Human Reproduction;27 (5), Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012-03-08)
      BACKGROUND Testicular germ cell tumour (TGCT) is the most common cancer in young men, and an imbalance between the estrogen and androgen levels in utero is hypothesized to influence TGCT risk. Thus, polymorphisms in genes ...

      Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have transformed our understanding of testicular germ cell tumour (TGCT) susceptibility but much of the heritability remains unexplained. Here we report a new GWAS, a meta-analysis ...
