The risks of CRC in XPD gene A allele carriers (GA/AA) (adjusted OR = 1.570, 95%CI = 1.201-1.976, <i>P</i>=0.001), hOGG1 gene G allele carriers (CG/GG) (adjusted OR = 3.031, 95%CI = 2.184-4.225, <i>P</i><0.001) and XRCC4 gene T allele carriers (GT/TT) (adjusted OR = 2.793, 95%CI = 2.235-3.222, <i>P</i><0.001) were significantly higher in patients who smoked ≥16 packs/year.
Our results suggest that the contribution of NUDT1 and OGG1 germline mutations to hereditary CRC and to polyposis is inexistent or, at most, negligible.
In subgroup analyses by cancer types, we found that the hOGG1Ser326Cys polymorphism may increase hepatocellular cancer and colorectal cancer risks, but decrease the risk of oral cancer.
These results suggest that biallelic MUTYH or OGG1 pathogenic mutations are rare in Japanese patients with early-onset CRC; however, the p.Arg19∗ and p.Arg109Trp MUTYH variants are associated with functional impairments.
The findings from the meta-analysis suggest that there is an obvious association between hOGG1C8069G polymorphism and increased risk of colorectal cancer, especially in the Caucasian population.
In summary, the present meta-analysis suggested that hOGG1Ser326Cys polymorphism might modify the susceptibility to colorectal cancer among the total population, especially among Caucasians.
The results obtained in our study indicated an association of OGG1 and MUTYH genes polymorphisms involved in oxidative DNA lesions repair with the risk occurrence of colorectal cancer in Polish patients.
This study suggests that the OGG1 polymorphism is not associated with the risk of development of CRC in the Kashmiri population in general but modulates the risk of cancer development in colon via interaction with many dietary factors.
The variant c.-53G>C in the 5'-UTR of the hOGG1 gene is a risk factor for gastric cancer and is potentially associated with low-differentiation degree, but not with colorectal cancer, in the Chinese population.
We describe here the first pathogenic germline mutation in OGG1, a splice site mutation affecting exon 1, which was inherited from the father, in combination with a maternal MUTYH missense mutation p.Ile223Val in a female patient with advanced synchronous colon cancer and adenomas at the age of 36 years pointing towards digenic inheritance for colorectal cancer (CRC) predisposition.
Using a family-based study, we investigated the role of polymorphisms in 4 BER genes (APEX1 Gln51His, Asp148Glu; OGG1Ser236Cys; PARP Val742Ala; and XRCC1 Arg194Trp, Arg280His, Arg399Gln) as potential CRC risk factors and modifiers of the association between diets high in red meat or poultry and CRC risk.
In the examined groups of patients with colorectal cancer (CRC, n = 89), benign adenoma (AD, n = 77) and healthy volunteers (controls, n = 99), we measured: vitamins A, C and E in blood plasma, 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG) and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoGua) in leukocytes and urine, leukocyte 8-oxoGua excision activity, mRNA levels of APE1, OGG1, 8-oxo-7,8-dihydrodeoxyguanosine 5'-triphosphate pyrophosphohydrolase (MTH1) and OGG1 polymorphism.
Therefore, the Lys751Gln polymorphism of the XPD gene and the Ser326Cys polymorphism of the hOGG1 gene are not associated with colorectal cancer in a Polish population.
Smokers homozygous for the variant allele of the hOGG1Ser326Cys polymorphism showed increased risk of colorectal cancer (OR: 4.17; 95% CI: 1.17-15.54; p=0.03).
