Abstract excerpt
Association between the polymorphism of DNA repair genes XRCC1 Arg399ln and XRCC3 Thr241Met and the frequency of chromosomal aberrations in the uranium workers was studied. The Gln/Gln genotype of gene XRCC1 was associated with a significant increase in the number of chromosomal aberrations as compared to the corresponding homozygous wild type Arg/Arg (p < 0.05). The frequency of chromosomal aberrations in...
