Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: Various DNA damage, induced by endogenous and exogenous factors, is handled through DNA repair pathways such as X-ray repair cross-complementing protein (XRCC). Genetic variations in these pathways may have a joint or additive effect on various types of cancer, including the risk of breast cancer (BC). AIM: To evaluate the association of three single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) Arg399Gln,...
