Association between single nucleotide polymorphisms in ERCC4 and risk of squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.
(PloS one, 2012-01)
Excision repair cross-complementation group 4 gene (ERCC4/XPF) plays an important
role in nucleotide excision repair and participates in removal of DNA interstrand
cross-links and DNA double-strand breaks. Single nucleotide ...
Genetic variants of NOXA and MCL1 modify the risk of HPV16-associated squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.
(BMC cancer, 2012-05)
The cooperation between phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate induced protein 1 (NOXA) and
myeloid cell leukemia 1 (MCL1) is critical in the intrinsic apoptotic pathway. Human
papillomavirus 16 (HPV16), by inducing p53 and pRb-E2F ...
Association between a rare novel TP53 variant (rs78378222) and melanoma, squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck and lung cancer susceptibility in non-Hispanic Whites.
(Journal of cellular and molecular medicine, 2013-07)
Recently, several studies have investigated the association between a newly reported
rare functional single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in TP53 (rs78378222) and cancer
risk, but generated inconsistent findings. The present ...
Polymorphisms of nucleotide excision repair genes predict melanoma survival.
(The Journal of investigative dermatology, 2013-07)
Melanoma is the most highly malignant skin cancer, and nucleotide excision repair
(NER) is involved in melanoma susceptibility. In this analysis of 1,042 melanoma patients,
we evaluated whether genetic variants of NER genes ...
ERCC1 and ERCC2 variants predict survival in gastric cancer patients.
(PloS one, 2013-01)
PURPOSE: ERCC1 and ERCC2 play critical roles in the nucleotide excision repair pathway
that effectively repairs DNA damage induced by chemotherapeutic agents. Therefore,
functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) ...
