Abstract

The <i>IL-1β-C31T</i> polymorphism affects breast cancer susceptibility, especially in women with late age at first birth, high BMI, postmenopausal status, negative smoking history, and invasive ductal carcinoma. Our study adds to the evidence about the importance of <i>IL-1β-C31T</i> polymorphism in breast cancer susceptibility.
