Transcription factor 7-like 2 (TCF7L2) variant is associated with familial breast cancer risk: a case-control study

BACKGROUND: The transcription factor 7-like 2 (TCF7L2) is a critical component of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. Aberrant TCF7L2 expression modifies Wnt signaling and mediates oncogenic effects through the upregulation of c-MYC and cyclin D. Genetic alterations in TCF7L2 may therefore affect cancer risk...
