Abstract excerpt
Several single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in DNA repair gene have been shown to affect DNA repair and to modify susceptibility to cancer. In this study, to investigate the role of these SNPs in glioma, we examined the potential association of 14 SNPs in DNA repair genes with the glioma risk in a Chinese population. We included 326 glioma cases and 376 cancer-free controls. Genotyping of the 14 SNPs was...
