Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: to evaluate the association between XPD and XRCC3 polymorphisms and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). DESIGN: the sample consisted of 54 cases of OSCC and 40 cases of inflammatory fibrous hyperplasia (IFH). Genotypes were determined by the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method. RESULTS: XPD-Lys/Gln was more common in IFH (n=28; 70%) than in OSCC (n=24;...
