Genetic Polymorphisms in Estrogen-Related Genes and the Risk of Breast Cancer among Han Chinese Women

Abstract: Exposure to high levels of estrogen is considered an important risk factor for susceptibility to breast cancer. Common polymorphisms in genes that affect estrogen levels may be associated with breast cancer risk, but no comprehensive study has been performed among Han Chinese women. In the present study, 32 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in estrogen-related genes were genotyped using the MassARRAY IPLEX platform in 1076 Han Chinese women. Genotypic and allelic frequencies were compared between case and… Show more

“…Chattopadhyay et al (2014) previously observed that rs700519 had a significant association with BC risk in North Indian women, which was strongly affected by menopausal status. Sun et al (2015) also reported that rs700519 is associated with susceptibility to BC among the Han Chinese population. However, Khvostova et al (2012) and Sangrajrang et al (2009) found that rs700519 was not associated with BC risk in Siberian and Thai women.…”
