Abstract excerpt

Given the essential role of prolactin (PRL) and its receptor (PRLR) in breast tumorigenesis, we investigated whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the PRL and PRLR genes were associated with breast cancer in Taiwanese women. A total of 160 breast cancer patients and 336 unrelated control Taiwanese women were enrolled in this study. Three SNPs (rs1341238, rs2244502 and rs3756824) in the PRL gene and...
