GATA3 and breast cancer: In total, the authors were able to prioritize 191 potential target genes for 150 breast cancer risk regions, mostly breast cancer associated transcription factors and somatic driver genes including CREBBP, EP300, ESR1, GATA3, and MYC. Pathway analysis in ER-positive GWAS identified potential target genes with biological roles in mammary development (23%), immune system pathways (18%), and nuclear receptor pathways (17%).
