Abstract excerpt
The ERCC1 (Excision Repair Cross Complementation Group 1) gene is involved in the nucleotide excision repair pathway. This study was designed to examine whether ERCC1 Asn118Asn (G19007A) polymorphism, which has been associated with risk of some cancers among Caucasians, may be associated with risk of lung cancer in a Chinese population. ERCC1 Asn118Asn (G19007A) genotypes were determined in DNA samples from 151...
