A rare variant of African ancestry activates 8q24 lncRNA hub by modulating cancer associated enhancer

Genetic variants on chromosome 8q24 are associated with prostate cancer risk in men of African ancestry. Here the authors show that one of these variants, rs72725854 alters the enhancer activity in its region, which upon androgen stimulation, activates multiple oncogenic lncRNAs and c-myc.
