In addition, we found evidence of association for two variants at 6q25.1, both of which are known breast cancer susceptibility loci: rs9485370 in the TAB2 gene (P = 4.8 × 10−9 for percent MD and P = 2.5 × 10−8 for absolute MD) and rs60705924 in the CCDC170/ESR1 region (P = 2.2 × 10−8 for absolute MD). This evidence concerns the gene ESR1 and breast cancer.
