“…Previous population-based studies of common CYP19 polymorphisms have generated inconsistent results with regard to their possible association with either sex hormone levels or risk for estrogen-dependent diseases (9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24). Selected CYP19 polymorphisms have also been investigated for their possible association with the therapeutic efficacy of aromatase inhibitors (25).…”

“…Selected CYP19 polymorphisms have also been investigated for their possible association with the therapeutic efficacy of aromatase inhibitors (25). The fact that past data with regard to the association of CYP19 polymorphisms with estrogen-dependent disease has been inconsistent (9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24), as well as the lack of functional studies of these polymorphisms, underscores the importance of applying a systematic approach to identify and functionally characterize CYP19 polymorphisms. In the present study, we have used gene resequencing to identify previously unreported genetic variation in this important gene.…”

“…The multiple nontranslated exon I controls gene expression in a tissue-specific manner and under complex hormonal regulation (15). Polymorphisms in CYP19A1 have been evaluated for their association with breast cancer risk (16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23) and, to a lesser extent, with endometrial (24,25) and prostate cancer (26,27) and endometriosis (28). The CYP19A1 gene is highly polymorphic (16).…”

“…Selected CYP19 polymorphisms have been investigated for their possible association with the therapeutic efficacy of aromatase inhibitors and with sex hormone levels or risk for estrogendependent diseases (6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17). Although the results of those studies are controversial, they suggest an important role for genetic variation in aromatase function and, as a result, in estrogen production.…”
