Sequence variations in DNA repair gene XPC is associated with lung cancer risk in a Chinese population: a case-control study.
(BMC cancer, 2007-01)
BACKGROUND: The nucleotide excision repair (NER) protein, xeroderma pigmentosum C
(XPC), participates in recognizing DNA lesions and initiating DNA repair in response
to DNA damage. Because mutations in XPC cause a high ...
Polymorphisms in thymidylate synthase gene and susceptibility to breast cancer in a Chinese population: a case-control analysis.
(BMC cancer, 2006-01)
BACKGROUND: Accumulative evidence suggests that low folate intake is associated with
increased risk of breast cancer. Polymorphisms in genes involved in folate metabolism
may influence DNA methylation, nucleotide synthesis, ...
