Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND/AIM: Genetic polymorphisms in DNA repair mechanisms can modulate overall DNA repair capacity, potentially influencing individual susceptibility to cancer. This study investigated the relationship between polymorphic variations in DNA ligase 1 and the risk of childhood acute lymphocytic leukemia (cALL). MATERIALS AND METHODS: The genotypes of DNA ligase 1 rs20579 were determined using polymerase chain...
