Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE: XRCC5 is a repair gene for DNA double-strand break. Its abnormal expression and dysfunction is correlated to tumorigenesis and development. This study was to investigate the correlations of XRCC5 polymorphisms to genetic susceptibility to esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and gastric cardiac adenocarcinoma (GCA) in a population of high incidence region, Cixian and Shexian counties...
