## Abstract The evidence that high circulating levels of insulinβlike growth factorβI (IGFβI) are associated with an increased risk of breast cancer among premenopausal women lends credence to the hypothesis that genetic polymorphisms in the __IGFβI__ gene may be involved in the disease. A populati
