Adipose tissue, a neglected factor in aetiology of breast cancer?
Lancet.
.
Abstract
The abundant adipose tissue that intimately invests both the alveolar and the ductal epithelium of the mammary gland may function as a slow-release depot for lipid-soluble carcinogenic agents of both endogenous and exogenous origin taken up from the bloodstream.
