Leptin receptor Gln223Arg polymorphism and breast cancer risk in Nigerian women: A case control study
BACKGROUND: Leptin, a 16 kDa polypeptide hormone, implicated in various physiological processes, exerts its action through the leptin receptor, a member of the class I cytokine receptor family. Both leptin and leptin receptor have recently been implicated in processes leading to breast cancer initia...
