From Mamm Mag  " Alcohol is a known risk factor for breast cancer.  Now scientists at the U of Mississippi may be able to explain the link.  They created a laboratory mouse model that mimics the development of alcohol-induced breast cancer in humans.  Scientists found that even moderate alcohol consumption--the equivalent of two drinks per day in humans--nearly doubles the size of breast tumors in mice.  They also found an increase in blood vessel density and specific proteins that cause tumor growth.
