background: x-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (xrcc1) gene is a dna repair gene and its non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (snp) may influence dna repair capacity which has been considered as a modifying risk factor for cancer development. methods: a case-control study was conducted to investigate impact of three frequently studied polymorphisms (arg194trp, arg280his and arg3...

X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) is a major DNA repair gene involved in BER mutation. Polymorphisms in DNA repair genes associated with repair efficiency against DNA damage may predispose an individual׳s cancer susceptibility. Data from cervical cancer patients was collected from South Indian Women. Genotyping of XRCC1 polymorphisms (194C/T, 280G/A and 399G/A) was done by polyme...

XRCC1-399 allele polymorphisms have been reported to be associated with susceptibility to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but the conclusions of the various studies have been inconsistent. We conducted a meta-analysis of available studies to determine whether XRCC1-399 alleles influence susceptibility to hepatocellular carcinoma. We searched English-language databases, including PubMed, Medline...

DNA damage induced by benzene is an important mechanism of its genotoxicity that leads to chronic benzene poisoning (CBP). Therefore, genetic variation in DNA repair genes may contribute to susceptibility to CBP in the exposed population. Because benzene-induced DNA damage includes single- and double-strand breaks, we hypothesized that single-nucleotide polymorphisms in X-ray repair cross-compl...

The excision repair cross-complementing rodent repair deficiency complementation group 1 (ERCC1), and X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) genes appear to protect mammalian cells from the harmful effects of ionizing radiation. We conducted a large case-control study to investigate the association of polymorphisms in ERCC1 C118T, ERCC1 C8092A, XRCC1 A194T, XRCC1 A194T, and XRCC3 C241...

BACKGROUND Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in a DNA-repair gene, X-Ray repair cross complementing group 1 (XRCC1), have been associated with the survival of patients with breast cancer. We investigated the predictive value of XRCC1 SNP (rs25487) in patients with early breast cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS The XRCC1 rs25487 genotypes of 411 Finnish patients with breast cancer were analyze...

BACKGROUND DNA repair gene X-ray repair cross complementing group 1 (XRCC1) plays an important role in the maintenance of the genomic integrity and protection of cells from DNA damage. Sequence variation in XRCC1 gene may alter head and neck cancer (HNC) susceptibility. However, these results are inconclusive. To derive a more precise estimation of the relationship between XRCC1 polymorphism an...

X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) is a major DNA repair gene that is responsible for fixing DNA base damage and single-strand breaks by interacting with DNA components at the damage site. This study explored the clinical significance of XRCC1 in human clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) and further examined the mechanism of the role of XRCC1 in ccRCC. The clinical relevance o...
