Al, the article you quoted ...
discussed all HISTOLOGICAL types of breast cancer (ie, infiltrating ductal vs inflammatory vs lobular vs medullary) rather than what are now felt to be the true subtypes of breast cancer (basal-type, her2-type, luminal A, luminal B and normal) based on Genes/proteins/biomarkers. Thus it is still possible that her2 breast cancer (as in article cited in my previous post) is not associated with obesity. As her2 testing gets better and more widespread we might get a better hold on this...
I posted two interesting articles --one on weight redistribution related to specific kinds of fats (I am sure RB will comment) and the other on weight loss related to an agent that affects PPAR. All are food for thought
