Objectives: X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) gene is an important candidate gene for influencing human cancer risks. This study examined the main and interactive effect of 9 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (Arg194Trp, Arg280His, Arg399Gln, c.1254C>T, c.1517G>C, c.1471G>A, C310T, 539del542, and T1915C) of XRCC1 in contribution to pancreatic cancer (PC).

Methods: A total of 298 PC patients and 298 healthy controls were enrolled. Selected SNPs in XRCC1 were genotyped. The generalized multifactor dimensionality reduction method investigated gene-gene interactions.

Results: Single-locus analyses showed that, in the codominant model, the GO genotype of 539del542 might have a higher risk for PC (odds ratio [OR], 1.47; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 1.05-2.08). For T1915C polymorphism, the TC and CC genotypes both had a higher risk for PC (OR, 1.76; 95% CI, 1.25-2.48; OR, 1.83; 95% CI, 1.05-3.19, respectively); and a similar result was observed in the dominant model (OR, 1.77; 95% CI, 1.28-2.46). A tendency of association between Arg280His and PC was also detected in the dominant model (OR, 0.70; 95% CI, 0.48-1.00). Furthermore, the generalized multifactor dimensionality reduction method showed that the 4-locus model was significant, involving Arg280His, 539del542, T1915C, and c.1517G>C (P < 0.05).

Conclusions: Thus, XRCC1 polymorphisms may contribute to the risk of PC independently or in an interactive manner.

Background: Systemic chemotherapy constitutes an indispensable component of breast cancer (BC) management, where therapeutic drug combinations such as anthracyclines, platinum compounds, and taxanes form the cornerstone of standard treatment protocols. Although DNA repair genes are pivotal in cancer susceptibility, their specific roles in mediating acute or chronic toxicity outcomes induced by chemotherapy remain undetermined. Consequently, this study was planned  to elucidate the impact of polymorphisms in base excision repair (BER) genes, including XRCC1, XRCC2, XRCC3, APE1, and hOGG1, on treatment response and toxicity outcomes in BC patients undergoing paclitaxel and doxorubicin-based chemotherapy within an Indian population.

Ovarian cancer (OC) is the most lethal gynecological cancer worldwide. DNA damage plays an important role in cancer development, and the proteins encoded by XRCC1 and ERCC2 are important components of the DNA repair system. This study aimed to examine the relationship between the rs25487 XRCC1 and rs13181 ERCC2 polymorphisms and the risk of OC development in women from the Moscow region.

Article Synopsis
  • Researchers explored the connection between DNA repair gene polymorphisms, specifically in base excision repair (BER) genes, and the risk of developing acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
  • A significant association was found between the APEX1-656 T>G polymorphism and AML risk, with elevated expression of APEX1 observed in AML patients compared to healthy controls.
  • The study concluded that APEX1 polymorphisms may be a risk factor for AML and emphasized APEX1's role in controlling AML cell differentiation and growth.

Background: Emerging evidence has indicated possible efficacy benefit of platinum-based chemotherapy as neoadjuvant treatment for invasive ductal carcinoma triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). However, it has not been endorsed by current guidelines due to highly controversial results.

Materials And Methods: Present study aims to investigate predictive and prognostic roles concerning single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in XRCC1 and BRCA1, BRCA2 genes for early stage TNBC patients that received platinum-based neoadjuvant treatment.
