Abstract excerpt

Vitamin D plays a central role in cellular proliferation, apoptosis induction, and tumor growth suppression. The vitamin D receptor (VDR) is a crucial mediator for the cellular effects of vitamin D. A series of epidemiological studies have examined the association between the VDR FokI polymorphism and breast cancer risk, but the findings remain inconclusive. Fifteen eligible case-control studies involving 15,681...
