UDP-glucuronosyltransferase and sulfotransferase polymorphisms, sex hormone concentrations, and tumor receptor status in breast cancer patients

INTRODUCTION: UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) and sulfotransferase (SULT) enzymes are involved in removing sex hormones from circulation. Polymorphic variation in five UGT and SULT genes – UGT1A1 ((TA)(6)/(TA)(7)), UGT2B4 (Asp(458)Glu), UGT2B7 (His(268)Tyr), UGT2B15 (Asp(85)Tyr), and SULT1A1 (Arg(...
