Abstract excerpt
Variability in DNA repair genes may contribute to human cancer risk. We performed a case-control study (51 cases and 100 controls) to test the association between two polymorphisms: Arg399Gln in the XRCC1 gene and Thr241Met in the XRCC3 gene and colorectal cancer risk. Genotypes were determined in tumour tissue and distant mucosa samples by PCR RFLP with the NciI restriction enzyme for XRCC1 and NcoI for XRCC3....
