Effect of Human OGG1 1245C→G Gene Polymorphism on 8-Hydroxy-2′-Deoxyguanosine Levels of Leukocyte DNA among Patients Undergoing Chronic Hemodialysis
1 Nov 2001
Abstract excerpt
The effects of the human OGG1 gene (hOGG1) 1245C-->G polymorphism on the 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) contents of peripheral leukocyte DNA were investigated among chronic hemodialysis patients. First, the hOGG1 1245C-->G transversion was assessed, by using a PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism method, among 210 hemodialysis patients and 156 healthy individuals. Second, the 8-OHdG contents in...
