Abstract excerpt
In the base excision repair pathway, the predominant DNA damage repair mechanism, X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) gene, has a crucial role. Defects in repair pathways are involved in cancer pathogenesis. Therefore, DNA repair genes might be involved in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) susceptibility. Our study aimed to evaluate the relationship between XRCC1 Arg194Trp, Arg280His and Arg399Gln...
