Abstract excerpt

To evaluate the association between breast cancer and cytosine-adenine (CA) dinucleotide repeat length polymorphisms in the promoter region of the Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1) gene, a case-control study of 215 breast cancer patients and 224 controls was conducted in Iranian women. The most common allele and genotype in both controls and patients were an allele length of 19 and a homozygous genotype of...
