Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: We evaluated the effects of the MTHFR C677T polymorphism and its interaction with estrogen exposure on breast cancer risk in a nested case-control study conducted in Taiwan. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 88 histologically confirmed breast cancer cases and 344 cancer-free controls were recruited between July 1992 and December 2000. The MTHFR C677T genotype was determined by a PCR-RFLP-based assay....
