Leptin and leptin receptor polymorphisms are associated with increased risk and poor prognosis of breast carcinoma
BACKGROUND: Leptin (LEP) has been consistently associated with angiogenesis and tumor growth. Leptin exerts its physiological action through its specific receptor (LEPR). We have investigated whether genetic variations in LEP and LEPR have implications for susceptibility to and prognosis in breast c...
