Abstract excerpt
Polymorphisms in nucleotide excision repair (NER) genes may cause variations in DNA repair capacity and increase susceptibility to bladder cancer through complex gene-gene and gene-smoking interactions. We applied two data mining approaches to explore high-order gene-gene and gene-environment interactions among 13 polymorphisms in nine major NER genes in 696 bladder cancer patients and 629 controls. Individually,...
