However, it is important to note that some events such as leptin-dependent transactivation of CYP19A in breast cancer cells, changes induced by ethanol in transcriptional expression of ERα and BRCA1, and nicotine-dependent transcriptional induction of Bcl-2 are just some of the mechanisms that remain partially unclear and therefore require further investigation to help the integration of the molecular models that explain the intervention of high risk habits in transcriptional regulation during carcinogenesis of breast tissue. Here, ESR1 is linked to breast carcinoma.
