The X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) gene is believed to play an important role in base excision repair and displays genetic polymorphisms. Data on the role of XRCC1 polymorphisms in cancer susceptibility is inconsistent. In the present study, we investigated the effect of two XRCC1 polymorphisms, Arg194Trp and Arg399Gln, on breast cancer risk in a case- control study involving Turkish breast...
