Plasma leptin levels, LEPR Q223R polymorphism and mammographic breast density: a cross-sectional study.

The International journal of biological markers - 28 Jun 2013

Abstract excerpt

Obesity is associated with breast cancer in post-menopausal women, and breast density is a marker of breast cancer risk. Leptin is produced by the adipose tissue, acts through receptors that are polymorphic in nature, and is considered a cancer growth factor. The relationship between body mass in...
