Breast tumor DNA methylation patterns associated with smoking in the Carolina Breast Cancer Study
2017
Purpose
Tobacco smoking is a risk factor in several cancers, yet its roles as a putative etiologic exposure or poor prognostic factor in breast cancer are less clear. Altered DNA methylation contributes to breast cancer development and may provide a mechanistic link between smoking and gene expression changes leading to cancer development or progression.
