Mendelian randomization analyses found genetically raised LDL cholesterol levels to be associated with lower risks of endometrial cancer of all histologies combined, and of endometrioid and non-endometrioid subtypes. Conversely, higher genetically predicted HDL cholesterol levels were associated with increased risk of non-endometrioid endometrial cancer. After accounting for the potential confounding role of obesity (as measured by genetic variants associated with body mass index), the association between genetically predicted increased LDL cholesterol levels and lower endometrial cancer risk remained significant, especially for non-endometrioid endometrial cancer. There was no evidence to support a role for triglycerides in endometrial cancer development. Our study supports a role for LDL and HDL cholesterol in the development of non-endometrioid endometrial cancer. Further studies are required to understand the mechanisms underlying these findings.]]> Tue 19 Sep 2023 15:34:26 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:48599 Tue 04 Apr 2023 19:22:25 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:45124 Thu 27 Oct 2022 10:53:06 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:44579 Mon 17 Oct 2022 14:17:20 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:53055 Fri 17 Nov 2023 11:47:02 AEDT ]]>
