Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Occupational exposure and life style preferences, such as smoking are the main known environmental susceptibility factors for bladder cancer. A growing list of chemicals has been shown to induce oxidative DNA damage. Base excision repair (BER) genes (X-ray repair cross complementing 1, XRCC1 and human 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase 1, OGG1) may play a key role in maintaining genome integrity and...
