Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: The aim of the present study was to analyze the genetic association between the three estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs; rs1062577, rs2881766, and rs9479118) and breast cancer risk in Han Chinese women. METHODS/MATERIALS: To investigate the possible association of genetic polymorphisms of any of the three ESR1 SNPs in breast cancer patients (n = 198) and healthy controls...
