The role of androgens and polymorphisms in the androgen receptor in the epidemiology of breast cancer.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:Experimental evidence suggests a protective role for circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) in breast cancer development, but the results of epidemiological studies have been inconsistent.
