A research project funded by the National Cancer Institute to study the impact of environmental chemical exposures and metabolic responses during pregnancy on the risk of premenopausal breast cancer, using advanced mass spectrometry and bioinformatics to analyze prenatal serum samples.
Description
This study investigates how environmental chemical exposures and metabolic responses during pregnancy contribute to premenopausal breast cancer risk by analyzing the untargeted exposome and metabolome in prenatal serum from a large, population-based cohort. The findings aim to identify modifiable risk factors and inform prevention strategies or early screening during pregnancy.
