Polymorphisms in steroid hormone pathway genes and mammographic density.

Breast cancer research and treatment - 1 Jan 2003

Haiman Christopher A, Hankinson Susan E, De Vivo Immaculata, Guillemette Chantal, Ishibe Naoko, Hunter David J, Byrne Celia

Abstract excerpt

Mammographic density has been linked with exposure to endogenous and exogenous steroid hormones, and increased breast cancer risk. Variation in breast density may be due, in part, to polymorphisms in steroid hormone biosynthesis, metabolism and signaling genes. We conducted cross-sectional analys...
