Role of single nucleotide polymorphisms of DNA repair genes in susceptibility to pancreatic cancer in Chinese population.

Abstract excerpt

We conducted a case-control study to investigate the role of ERCC1-ERCC5 gene polymorphisms in the risk of pancreatic cancer. This study included 195 patients who were newly diagnosed with histopathologically confirmed primary pancreatic cancer, and 254 controls were recruited from Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, between January 2012 and December 2014. Genotyping of ERCC1 rs3212986 and rs11615, ERCC2 rs13181, ERCC3...
