“…Zhang et al, in their study on diabetic patients reported that XPD Lys751Gln was not, however, the hOGG1 Ser326Cys polymorphism was associated with age related cataract [19]. The Gln allele of the XPD Lys751Gln was found to be significantly different in the mixed type cataract group in the Turkish population [20]. In the Turkish population, the hOGG1 Ser326Cys polymorphism might be associated with increasing risk of colorectal cancer, yet XPD Lys751Gln was not found related [21].…”

“…And adjusted OR (odds ratio) at 95% confidence interval (CI) and P < 0.05. (Yang et al, 2007), gastric cancer (Ruzzo et al, 2007), skin cancers (McCarty et al, 2007), esophageal cancer (Ye et al, 2006), leukemia (Rzeszowska-Wolny et al, 2005), multiple myeloma (Hsieh et al, 2008) and cataract disease (Unal et al, 2007). In this study, the polymorphisms of XPD Lys751 Gln and XRCC1 Arg399Gln genes were analyzed which are nucleotide excision repair and base excision repair genes, respectively, with regard to their protective roles against the development of hematological malignancies.…”

“…these polymorphisms seemingly do not have other significant effect on the health of the carrier apart from increasing the risk for development of cancer in middle and advanced age (40,92). Some polymorphisms in the XPD gene (312Asn and, again, lys751Gln) may bring about an increase in the risk for senile cataract in carrier individuals, probably because of accelerated aging of the crystallins in the lens of the eye (81). Since risk of cancer generally increases with age, it is quite obvious that such polymorphic variants would fully exert their adverse effect late in life.…”
