TERT and prostate carcinoma: The most striking examples for cancer are: the 8q24 region, that harbors multiple loci associated with breast, colon, prostate, bladder and/or ovarian cancers, the TERT region, which has been associated with pancreatic, bladder, lung and prostate cancers, the p16 region on chromosome 9p21, and 6q25, and 11q13 associated, respectively, with non-Hodgkins lymphoma (NHL) and nasopharyngeal carcinoma and with bladder, breast and prostate cancer [10].
