Abstract excerpt
DNA repair genes have been proposed as candidate cancer susceptibility genes. The excision repair cross-complementing rodent repair deficiency, complementation group 2 (ERCC2)/xeroderma pigmentosum complementary group D (XPD) protein is considered to be a key enzyme in nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathway. To elucidate whether common ERCC2 variants are associated with lung cancer susceptibility, we conducted...
