To the Editor: Incidence of skin cancer is increasing worldwide, particularly affecting the older population.1 This can be mainly attributed to increased cumulative ultraviolet exposure rather than other risk factors including exposure to ionizing radiation, immunosuppression, and long-term scar inflammation.1-3 The rapidly growing elderly population in Japan has led to an alarming increase in the number of skin cancer patients.4 However, studies comparing aging trends between patients with primary skin cancer and other organ cancers have not been reported.

Mashup Score: 0Gene–Environment Analyses in a UK Biobank Skin Cancer Cohort Identifies Important SNPs in DNA Repair Genes That May Help Prognosticate Disease Risk - 5 month(s) ago
AbstractBackground:. Despite well-established relationships between sun exposure and skin cancer pathogenesis/progression, specific gene–environment interactions in at-risk individuals remain poorly-understood.Methods:. We leveraged a UK Biobank cohort of basal cell carcinoma (BCC, n = 17,221), cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC, n = 2,331), melanoma in situ (M-is, n = 1,158), invasive melanoma (M-inv, n = 3,798), and healthy controls (n = 448,164) to quantify the synergistic involvement of genetic and environmental factors influencing disease risk. We surveyed 8,798 SNPs from 190 DNA repair genes, and 11 demographic/behavioral risk factors.Results:. Clinical analysis identified darker skin (RR = 0.01–0.65) and hair (RR = 0.27–0.63) colors as protective factors. Eleven SNPs were significantly associated with BCC, three of which were also associated with M-inv. Gene–environment analysis yielded 201 SNP–environment interactions across 90 genes (FDR-adjusted q < 0.05). SNPs from the

The World Health Organization has called on governments to ensure that outdoor workers are protected from the sun, as new estimates show that nearly one in every three deaths from non-melanoma skin cancer is caused by exposure to solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation while working outdoors. In 2019 an estimated 18 960 deaths from non-melanoma skin cancer were attributable to occupational exposure to solar UV radiation worldwide, shows new research from WHO and the International Labour Organization.1 This was an increase of 88% from an estimated 10 088 deaths in …
