Abstract excerpt
Xeroderma pigmentosum group G (XPG) recognizes and excises DNA damage on the 3' side during the DNA repair process. Previous studies indicated that XPG gene polymorphisms may associate with gastric cancer susceptibility, but results were inconsistent. We evaluated the association of five potentially functional XPG polymorphisms (rs2094258 C>T, rs751402 C>T, rs2296147 T>C, rs1047768 T>C, and rs873601 G>A) with...
