Functional, Genetic, and Epigenetic Aspects of Base and Nucleotide Excision Repair in Colorectal Carcinomas
11 Sept 2012
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: DNA repair capacity (DRC) is a determinant not only of cancer development but also of individual response to therapy. Previously, altered base and nucleotide excision repair (BER and NER) have been described in lymphocytes of patients with sporadic colorectal cancer. We, for the first time, evaluate both excision repair capacities in human colon biopsies to study their participation in colorectal...
