Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: The XPC gene is involved in DNA damage recognition in the nucleotide excision repair pathway (NER). We investigated the additive effects of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in bladder-cancer patients and population controls for three XPC polymorphisms: A499V (C>T), K939Q (A>C), and poly AT (PAT, -/+). EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: 311 bladder-cancer patients from a population-based cohort and 337 population...
