When the signal is commanded to grow, cancer cells will develop in breast cells that contain receptors. Cancer will be called ER-positive (ER +) if the cause of development is the result of the receptor for the hormone estrogen.
Meanwhile, if the cause of development is the presence of receptors for the hormone progesterone, called PR-positive (PR +). Research done by comparing 758 patients with breast cancer and 1135 control participants who did not suffer from the disease. The researchers found that participants who were vitamin D intake was high experienced 26 percent lower risk of breast cancer ER and PR, and 21 percent decreased risk of ER or PR tumors.
