Abstract

Summary of the research findings

Despite progress in identifying genes associated with breast cancer, many more risk loci exist. Genome-wide association analyses in genetically-homogeneous populations, such as that of Sardinia (Italy), could represent an additional approach to detect low penetrance alleles.

1,367 Sardinian cases, 1,658 Sardinian controls
