## Abstract We investigated whether variants in sex steroid hormone metabolism genes modify the effect of hormone therapy (HT) on endometrial cancer risk in postmenopausal nonโHispanic white women. A nested caseโcontrol study was conducted within the California Teachers Study (CTS). We genotyped ht
## Abstract Experimental and epidemiological data support a role for sex steroid hormones in the pathogenesis of endometrial cancer. The associations of preโdiagnostic blood concentrations of estradiol, estrone, testosterone, androstenedione, DHEAS and SHBG with endometrial cancer risk were investi
## Abstract Menopausal hormone therapy (HT) is associated with increased breast cancer risk among postmenopausal women. Nuclear receptors are involved in steroid hormoneโ and xenobioticโmediated signal transduction playing a crucial role in regulating gene expression. Therefore, variations within t
