Circadian PERformance in breast cancer: a germline and somatic genetic study of PER3 VNTR polymorphisms and gene co-expression
Abstract Polymorphisms in the PER3 gene have been associated with several human disease phenotypes, including sleep disorders and cancer. In particular, the long allele of a variable number of tandem repeat (VNTR) polymorphism has been previously linked to an increased risk of breast cancer. Here we...
