Obesity and Breast Cancer: The Roles of Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor-γ and Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1
Breast cancer is the most prominent cancer among females in the United States. There are a number of risk factors associated with development of breast cancer, including consumption of a high-fat diet and obesity. Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) is a cytokine upregulated in obesity whose e...
