Abstract excerpt
We have recently demonstrated a significant dose-response relationship between vinyl chloride exposure and mutant p53 biomarkers in humans. The aim of this study was to examine a common polymorphism in the DNA repair gene XRCC1 as a potential biomarker of susceptibility modifying this relationship, consistent with the known mechanism of production of p53 mutations via vinyl chloride-induced etheno-DNA adducts,...
