VEGFA and breast carcinoma: In this study, PIH was shown to significantly interact with specific allelic variants of insulin growth factor receptor-1 (IGFR1; rs2016347), and borderline significantly with a specific allelic variant of vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A; rs3025039) genes, indicating that the protective effects of first pregnancy PIH on later life breast density and breast cancer risk may depend on inherited functional variants in these two growth factor receptor and angiogenic factor genes.
