Sun exposure, vitamin D receptor gene polymorphisms, and breast cancer risk in a multiethnic population.

American journal of epidemiology - 15 Dec 2007

John Esther M, Schwartz Gary G, Koo Jocelyn, Wang Wei, Ingles Sue A

Abstract excerpt

Considerable evidence indicates that vitamin D may reduce the risk of several cancers, including breast cancer. This study examined associations of breast cancer with sun exposure, the principal source of vitamin D, and vitamin D receptor gene (VDR) polymorphisms (FokI, TaqI, BglI) in a populatio...
