Background: ATM; XRCC6 and LIG4 genes play an important role in repairing the double-strand DNA breaks and maintaining the genome stability. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in these genes could affect these genes expression and function. The aim of this study was to address the effect of SNP of the DNA repairing genes on corresponding gene expression as well as AML patient's outcome.
Subjects And Methods: This is cross sectional study included 95 newly diagnosed AML patients. For all subjects included in our study SNPs and expression of ATM (rs189037G>A), XRCC6 (rs2267437C>G) and LIG4 (rs1805388C>T) genes were evaluated by RFLP and real time PCR.
Results: The following SNPs in ATM (AA); XRCC6 (GG); and LIG4 (TT) are associated with down regulation of the corresponding genes (P<0.001). The lower expression of ATM and LIG4 genes are associated with shorter OS and DFS. Cox regression multivariate analysis revealed that lower expression of ATM HR : 2.02 (CI: 1.12-3.64; p=0.020.
Conclusion: The following SNPs of ATM (AA); XRCC6 (GG); and LIG4 (TT) are associated with down regulation of corresponding genes expression. ATM and XRCC6 lower expression are predictors of OS while ATM is predictor of DFS and could be used for optimizing the AML therapy.

Breast cancer risk have been discussed to be associated with polymorphisms in genes as well as abnormal DNA damage repair function. This study aims to assess the relationship between genes single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) related to DNA damage repair and female breast cancer risk in Chinese population. A case-control study containing 400 patients and 400 healthy controls was conducted.

Background: DNA damage response (DDR) and repair are vital for safeguarding genetic information and ensuring the survival and accurate transmission of genetic material. DNA damage, such as DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), triggers a response where sensor proteins recognize DSBs. Information is transmitted to kinases, initiating a sequence resulting in the activation of the DNA damage response and recruitment of other DDR and repair proteins to the DSB site in a highly orderly sequence.

Radiotherapy and cisplatin-based chemotherapy belong to the main treatment modalities for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) and induce cancer cell death by generating DNA damage, including the most severe double-strand breaks (DSBs). Alterations in DSB response and repair genes may affect individual DNA repair capacity and treatment sensitivity, contributing to the therapy resistance and poor prognosis often observed in HNSCC. In this study, we investigated the association of a panel of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 20 DSB signaling and repair genes with therapy results and prognosis in 505 HNSCC patients treated non-surgically with DNA damage-inducing therapies.

Radiotherapy causes destruction of tumor cells, but also threatens the integrity and survival of surrounding normal cells. Then, woman submitted to irradiation for cancer treatment may present permanent ovary damage, resulting in impaired fertility. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of therapeutic doses of ionizing radiation (IR), used for ovarian cancer treatment in humans, on bovine cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs) as experimental model.

Cumulus cells from cumulus-oocyte complexes (COC) matured in vitro in serum-free medium show high incidence of apoptosis and DNA double-strand breaks (DSB). This study aimed to characterize the transcript expression profile of selected genes involved in DNA repair mechanisms in bovine cumulus cells cultured with bovine serum albumin (BSA) or fetal calf serum (FCS). Briefly, bovine cumulus-oocyte complexes were in vitro matured with either, 0.
