Genetic variation in the genome-wide predicted estrogen response element-related sequences is associated with breast cancer development

Introduction Estrogen forms a complex with the estrogen receptor (ER) that binds to estrogen
response elements (EREs) in the promoter region of estrogen-responsive genes, regulates
their transcription, and consequently mediates physiological or tumorigenic effects. Thus,
sequence variants in EREs have the potential to affect the estrogen-ER-ERE interaction. In
this study, we examined the hypothesis that genetic variations of EREs are associated with
breast cancer development. Methods This case-control study involved 815 patients of Asian …
