Abstract excerpt
Workers in the metal handicraft industry are frequently exposed to heavy metals such as lead and cadmium, which are known to induce oxidative DNA damage. Individual susceptibility to this damage may be influenced by genetic variations in DNA repair enzymes, particularly 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase 1 (OGG1) and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1). This study examined the combined effects of metal exposure and...
