Multiple novel prostate cancer susceptibility signals identified by fine-mapping of known risk loci among Europeans
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified numerous common prostate cancer (PrCa) susceptibility loci. We have
fine-mapped 64 GWAS regions known at the conclusion of the iCOGS study using large-scale genotyping and imputation in
25 723 PrCa cases and 26 274 controls of European ancestry. We detected evidence for multiple independent signals at 16
regions, 12 of which contained additional newly identified significant associations. A single signal comprising a spectrum of
correlated variation was observed at 39 regions; 35 of which are now described by a novel more significantly associated lead SNP,
while the originally reported variant remained as the lead SNP only in 4 regions. We also confirmed two association signals in
Europeans that had been previously reported only in East-Asian GWAS. Based on statistical evidence and linkage disequilibrium
(LD) structure, we have curated and narrowed down the list of the most likely candidate causal variants for each region.
Functional annotation using data from ENCODE filtered for PrCa cell lines and eQTL analysis demonstrated significant
enrichment for overlap with bio-features within this set. By incorporating the novel risk variants identified here alongside the
refined data for existing association signals, we estimate that these loci now explain ∼38.9% of the familial relative risk of PrCa,
an 8.9% improvement over the previously reported GWAS tag SNPs. This suggests that a significant fraction of the heritability of
PrCa may have been hidden during the discovery phase of GWAS, in particular due to the presence of multiple independent
signals within the same regio

Synthesis and structure of cationic guanidinate-bridged bimetallic {Li 7M} cubes (M = Mn, Co, Zn) with inverse crown counter anions
The reactions of the heteroleptic lithium amide [Li3(μ-hmds)2(μ,μ-hpp)] (1), where [hmds]− = hexamethyldisilazide and [hpp]− = hexahydropyrimidopyrimidide, with MnCl2, CoCl2 or ZnBr2 result in the formation of the separated ion-pairs [MLi7(μ8-O)(μ,μ-hpp)6]+[A]−, which each consist of a {MLi7} oxo-centred cube structural motif (M = Mn 2, Co 4, Zn 5), with each face of the cube being bridged by an [hpp]− ligand. In the case of M = Mn and Co, the counter ion, [A]−, is the pentagonal anionic inverse crown [{Li(μ-hmds)}5(μ5-Cl)]− (3), whereas the reaction with M = Zn produces the known tris-amido zincate [Zn(hmds)3]− counter anion
