Association of progesterone receptor gene (PGR) variants and breast cancer risk in African American women.

Breast cancer research and treatment - 1 Jun 2013

Gabriel Courtney A, Mitra Nandita, Demichele Angela, Rebbeck Timothy

Abstract excerpt

Prolonged exposure to combined hormone replacement therapy (estrogen plus progestin) increases a woman's risk of breast cancer, whereas estrogen-only hormone replacement therapy does not. This suggests that progesterone may play a role in breast carcinogenesis. Association studies have reported i...
