Abstract excerpt
The hOGG1 (8-oxoguanine-DNA glycosylase) gene may contribute to further understanding of the relation between oxidative DNA damage and carcinogenesis. A real-time PCR technique was used to determine mRNA levels in peripheral blood cells to assess the possibility of using hOGG1 mRNA as a biomarker in epidemiological studies. To evaluate the intra- and interindividual variation of hOGG1 mRNA levels in peripheral...
