Abstract excerpt
ERCC1 and ERCC2 have been known to belong to the nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathway and are essential to the repair of cisplatin DNA adducts. In the present study, we have examined the potential correlation of ERCC1, ERCC2 mRNA expression and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) to chemotherapy drug cytotoxicity from 49 human gliomas. Fresh human glioma specimens were obtained during surgery. SNPs of ERCC1...
