## Abstract Estrogen and its metabolites are believed to play important roles in breast cancer, and its determinants include both genetic and lifestyle factors. The objective of the study is to investigate the association of breast cancer risk in Thailand with genetic polymorphisms in several genes
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Genes encoding enzymes involved in estrogen metabolism are held to be candidate genes for associations with breast disease. In these candidate genes, no critical combination of singleβnucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for assessing breast carcinoma risk has been reported to
