Abstract excerpt

We investigated the association between polymorphism in the androgen receptor (AR) and vitamin D receptor (VDR) genes and breast cancer risk in a large population-based case-control study of genetically homogenous Swedish women. We successfully determined both AR CAG(n) and VDR A(n) genotype in 1...
