Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the role of 27-hydroxycholesterol (27HC) in breast cancer development, focusing on the enzymes and receptors that regulate its levels and how they relate to breast cancer risk.
  • It analyzes tumor tissue expression of key markers (CYP27A1, CYP7B1, LXR-β, and ERβ) and serum 27HC concentrations using data from a case-control study involving 287 breast cancer cases.
  • Results indicate minimal associations between tumor markers and breast cancer characteristics, although some variations were noted based on LXR-β status in perimenopausal women.
