BACKGROUND Converging evidence supports the central role of DNA damage in progression to breast cancer. We therefore in this study aimed to assess the potential interactions of seven common polymorphisms from five DNA repair genes (XRCC1, XRCC2, XRCC3, XPA and APEX1) in association with breast cancer among Han Chinese women. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS This was a case-control study involving 606 patients diagnosed with sporadic breast cancer and 633 age- and ethnicity-matched cancer-free controls. The polymerase chain reaction-ligase detection reaction method was used to determine genotypes. All seven polymorphisms were in accordance with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in controls. Differences in the genotypes and alleles of XRCC1 gene rs25487 and XPA gene rs1800975 were statistically significant between patients and controls, even after the Bonferroni correction (P<0.05/7). Accordingly, the risk for breast cancer was remarkably increased for rs25487 (OR = 1.28; 95% CI: 1.07-1.51; P = 0.006), but decreased for rs1800975 (OR = 0.77; 95% CI: 0.67-0.90; P = 0.001) under an additive model at a Bonferroni corrected alpha of 0.05/7. Allele combination analysis showed higher frequencies of the most common combination C-G-G-C-G-G-G (alleles in order of rs1799782, rs25487, rs3218536, rs861539, rs1800975, rs1760944 and rs1130409) in controls than in patients (PSim = 0.002). In further interaction analysis, two-locus model including rs1800975 and rs25487 was deemed as the overall best model with the maximal testing accuracy of 0.654 and the cross-validation consistency of 10 out of 10 (P = 0.001). CONCLUSION Our findings provide clear evidence that XRCC1 gene rs25487 and XPA gene rs1800975 might exert both independent and interactive effects on the development of breast cancer among northern Chinese women.

Study of the association FokI polymorphisms of the XRCC3 gene with the risk of breast cancer in women: brief report

Background: Breast cancer is one of the most common worldwide malignancies among women. Biological data suggest that damage induced by endogenous and exogenous factors affects the integrity of DNA and associated with susceptibility to breast cancer. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in DNA repair genes can associated with differences in the repair efficiency of DNA damage and may affect br...

Association between Polymorphisms of X-ray Repair Cross Complementing 5 and 6 Promoter Genes and the Risk of Metastatic Breast Cancer

Background and Objective: Breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related death in women. Better individualized treatment needs novel prognostic predictors. X-ray repair cross complementing XRCC5 and XRCC6 are coding genes of the Ku protein complex (key components of the non-homologous end-joining [NHEJ] pathway), which could serve as prognostic factors in breast cancer. Hence, in t...

The Association of the MTHFR Gene Polymorphisms with Breast Cancer Susceptibility

Introduction: Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women worldwide. It is also the second leading cause of cancer death among women after lung cancer. Considering the relationship among plasma folate levels, the level of uracil, and DNA damage in cell division, methyl tetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) is a suitable candidate for studies on the susceptibility to cancer, including brea...
