Estrogen pathway polymorphisms and mammographic density.

Anticancer research - 1 Dec 2011

Dumas Isabelle, Diorio Caroline

Abstract excerpt

Elevated mammographic density (MD) is strongly associated with breast cancer risk and the estrogen pathway has been proposed as a potential mechanism for this association. It has been repeatedly observed that several established estrogen-related factors associated with breast cancer risk, such as parity and hormone replacement therapy, are also associated with MD. However, the association of circulating estrogen...
