XRCC2 Polymorphisms and Environmental Factors Predict High Risk of Colorectal Cancer

Abstract: BackgroundThis case-control study aimed to analyze the association of XRCC2 polymorphisms (rs3218408 and rs3218384) with colorectal cancer (CRC) risk. The interaction of XRCC2 polymorphisms with environmental factors was investigated as well.Material/MethodsWe enrolled 147 CRC patients and 114 healthy individuals into the study. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-sequencing method was performed to detect rs3218408 and rs3218384 polymorphisms. Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) was checked in the control group. Odds… Show more

“…The differential expression of CHEK1, XRCC2, DDIAS and NEIL3 were related to DNA damage and repair [89][90][91][92]. XRCC2 polymorphisms and its protein were associated with susceptibility of colorectal cancer [93,94]. CHK1 inhibitors are promising in chemo-and radio-sensitization [95].…”

“…With increasing progress in molecular biology, the study of the etiology of CRC has advanced from environmental factors to environmental-genetic interactions, and gradually encroached on analyses at molecular level [20,21]. By investigating the molecular mechanisms behind the formation of tumors, a clearer understanding of the relationship among environment, genetics, genes, and CRC has been established.…”

“…The XPD protein is a kind of protein that is absolutely necessary for the 5′-3′ helicase enzyme to have a role in the DNA repair pathway [ 11 ]. Polymorphism −751 in the XPD gene has been associated with a lower DNA repair capacity and a different kind of carcinogenesis [ 12 , 13 ].…”
