Abstract excerpt
A recent genome-wide association study (GWAS) has identified a new subset of breast cancer susceptibility loci on chromosomes 9, 10, and 11 in populations of European descent. However, because of the genetic heterogeneity, the role of these loci in non-European descent populations is still unclear. To evaluate the relationships between genetic variants in these regions identified by GWAS and breast cancer risk in...
