## Abstract Insulin‐like growth factor‐1 (IGF‐I), a potent mitogen, is hypothesized to influence breast cancer risk. In 3 previous studies, a polymorphism in the __IGF‐1__ gene (sequence repeat length) was associated with plasma IGF‐I level. We evaluated prospectively the relationships among a (CA)

Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) has mitogenic and antiapoptotic effects on breast cancer cells. Epidemiologic studies have shown that high plasma levels of IGF-I and low levels of IGF binding protein (BP)-3 are associated with increased risk of breast cancer in premenopausal women. The actions
