Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Cancer is the leading cause of death in economically developed countries and the second leading cause of death in developing countries. The relationship between genetic polymorphisms and cancer risk has been extensively researched. In the present study, we evaluated the association between polymorphisms in two DNA repair genes, ERCC2 Lys751Gln (rs13181) and XRCC2 Arg188His (rs3218536) and the risk of...
