Abstract excerpt
We investigated whether the C1245G polymorphism of human 8-oxoguanine glycosylase 1 (hOGG1) gene confers the susceptibility to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) occurrence of lupus nephritis and affects the plasma level of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) in patients with SLE. A total of 45 healthy controls and 85 SLE patients were recruited. The C1245G polymorphism of the hOGG1 gene was determined by direct...
