Researchers investigated how various health behaviors might mediate the relationships between depression, anxiety, and the onset of different types of cancer. They conducted individual participant data meta-analyses using participants from 18 cohorts from the Psychosocial Factors and Cancer Incidence consortium.The cohorts analyzed included the Atlantic Partnership for Tomorrow’s Health, Ontario Health Study, and CARTaGENE. The findings suggested that smoking serves as a mediating factor that connects depression and anxiety with lung cancer and other cancers related to smoking.

Geerlings

Researchers determined whether psychosocial factors interact with or modify the effects of health behaviors, such as smoking and alcohol use, in relation to cancer incidence. Data were used from 22 cohorts, including the Ontario Health Study, Atlantic Partnership for Tomorrow’s Health, and CARTaGENE. After exploring 744 combinations of psychosocial factors, the researchers found no evidence that psychosocial factors interacted with or modified health behaviors related to cancer incidence.

Depression, anxiety, and the risk of cancer: An individual participant data meta-analysis

Auteurs : Lonneke A van Tuijl, Maartje Basten, Kuan-Yu Pan, Roel Vermeulen, Lützen Portengen, Alexander de Graeff, Joost Dekker, Mirjam I Geerlings, Adriaan Hoogendoorn, Femke Lamers, Adri C Voogd, Jessica Abell, Philip Awadalla, Aartjan T F Beekman, Ottar Bjerkeset, Andy Boyd, Yunsong Cui, Philipp Frank, Henrike Galenkamp, Bert Garssen, Sean Hellingman, Martijn Huisman, Anke Huss, Trynke R de Jong, Melanie R Keats, Almar A L Kok, Steinar Krokstad, Flora E van Leeuwen, Annemarie I Luik, Nolwenn Noisel, N Charlotte Onland-Moret, Yves Payette, Brenda W J H Penninx, Ina Rissanen, Annelieke M Roest, Rikje Ruiter, Robert A Schoevers, David Soave, Mandy Spaan, Andrew Steptoe, Karien Stronks, Erik R Sund, Ellen Sweeney, Emma L Twait, Alison Teyhan, W M Monique Verschuren, Kimberly D van der Willik, Judith G M Rosmalen, Adelita V Ranchor

Researchers performed meta-analyses within the Psychosocial Factors and Cancer Incidence (PSY-CA) consortium to develop a stronger foundation for addressing associations between depression, anxiety, and the incidence of various cancer types. They found that depression and anxiety are not related to increased risk for most cancer outcomes, except for lung and smoking-related cancers.

Recombination affects allele-specific expression of deleterious variants in human populations

Auteurs : Michelle P Harwood, Isabel Alves, Hilary Edgington, Mawusse Agbessi, Vanessa Bruat, David Soave, Fabien C Lamaze, Marie-Julie Favé, Philip Awadalla

Cette étude examine comment les changements dans la composition génétique d’une population, influencés par la dérive génétique aléatoire et les forces sélectives, ont un impact sur la variation des caractéristiques observables au fil du temps. Les chercheurs ont constaté que des facteurs spécifiques tels que les taux de recombinaison et la taille de la population affectent les schémas d’expression des gènes spécifiques à un allèle, les régions où la recombinaison est élevée utilisant plus efficacement ce mécanisme pour supprimer les variations génétiques nuisibles.
