Placental genes and breast cancer: can the offspring's or father's genotypes predict mother's risk?

Epidemiology (Cambridge, Mass.) - 1 Mar 2003

Ahsan Habibul

Abstract excerpt

Half of the placental genes to which a woman is exposed during pregnancy come from her mating partner. Placental hormones, especially human chorionic gonadotropin and human placental lactogen, are considered to mediate the protective effects of full-term pregnancy and lactation on breast cancer risk. In this paper, variants in a woman's placental human chorionic gonadotropin or human placental lactogen genes,...
