Abstract excerpt
The high morbidity and aggressive behavior of breast cancer are associated with genetic variations. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in many genes have been demonstrated as a risk factor for breast cancer. In this study, we evaluated the association of the SNP rs1982073 (Leu10Pro) in transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGFB1) gene and the SNP rs1219648 in fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) gene with...
