We assessed polymorphisms in the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR-Arg554Lys), null variants of the glutathione S-transferase superfamily (GSTM1 and GSTT1), x-ray repair cross-complementing 1 and 3, and Xeroderma pigmentosum, group D (XRCC1-Arg399Gln, XRCC3-Thr241Met, XPD-Lys751Gln).
Our results indicate that SNPs in the NER genes ERCC1 (Asn118Asn, 15310G>C, 8902G>T), XPA (-4G>A), ERCC2/XPD (Lys751Gln) and ERCC5/XPD (His46His); the BER genes APE1/APEX (Ile64Val), OGG1 (Ser326Cys), PCNA (1876A>G) and XRCC1 (Arg194Trp, Arg280His, Arg399Gln); and the DSB-R genes ATR (Thr211Met), NBS1 (Glu185Gln), XRCC2 (Arg188His) and XRCC9 (Thr297Ile) modulate NSCLC risk.
To analyze the association of the polymorphisms in 8-oxoguanine glycosylase-1 (OGG1), X-ray repair cross-complementing-1 (XRCC1), and AP endonuclease-1 (APE1) genes in the base excision repair pathway and xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group D (XPD) in the nucleotide excision repair pathway with the risk of cataract in a Chinese population.
Associations between lung cancer risk and common polymorphisms in the DNA repair genes xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group D (XPD), X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1), XRCC3 and apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease/redox factor 1 were examined within a randomized clinical trial designed to determine whether alpha-tocopherol, beta-carotene, or both would reduce cancer incidence among male smokers in Finland.
In conclusion, our results reveal no association between XPDLys751Gln, XRCC Arg399Gln and XRCC3 Thr241Met polymorphisms and the risk of PE in a Mexican mestizo population; however, the results in the APEX1Asp148Glu polymorphism suggest the need for future studies using a larger sample size.
In a subset of 55 patients, the xeroderma pigmentosum group D (XPD)-751, x-ray cross-complementing group 3 (XRCC3) and cytidine deaminase polymorphisms were significantly associated with clinical outcomes.
Association of cytidine deaminase and xeroderma pigmentosum group D polymorphisms with response, toxicity, and survival in cisplatin/gemcitabine-treated advanced non-small cell lung cancer patients.
Association of xeroderma pigmentosum group D (Asp312Asn, Lys751Gln) and cytidine deaminase (Lys27Gln, Ala70Thr) polymorphisms with outcome in Chinese non-small cell lung cancer patients treated with cisplatin-gemcitabine.
Interestingly, XPD transduction and treatment with statins and bisphosphonates known to accelerate the radiation-induced ATM nucleoshuttling led to significant complementation of these impairments.<b>Conclusions:</b> Our findings suggest that some subsets of XPD patients may be at risk of radiosensitivity reactions and treatment with statins and bisphosphonates may be an interesting approach of radioprotection countermeasure.
Expression of CyclinD1, Bcl-2, and C-sis increased significantly after XPD silencing, while the expression of P21, Mdm2, Mdm4, Bax, and P53 significantly decreased (vs. NC, P<0.05).
The CDA Lys(27)Lys polymorphism significantly correlated with better clinical benefit (P = 0.04) and grade > or =3 neutropenia and thrombocytopenia, as well as with longer TTP and OS (P = 0.006 and P = 0.002, respectively), whereas no significant associations were found among ERCC1 and XPD polymorphisms and both response and clinical outcome.
Association of cytidine deaminase and xeroderma pigmentosum group D polymorphisms with response, toxicity, and survival in cisplatin/gemcitabine-treated advanced non-small cell lung cancer patients.
We used polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism to evaluate genetic polymorphisms of XPD (Asp312Asn and Lys751Gln) and CDA (Lys27Gln and Ala70Thr) in 93 NSCLC patients treated with a cisplatin-gemcitabine regimen.
In a subset of 55 patients, the xeroderma pigmentosum group D (XPD)-751, x-ray cross-complementing group 3 (XRCC3) and cytidine deaminase polymorphisms were significantly associated with clinical outcomes.
These results indicate that the MMS19-XPD protein complex, now designated MMXD (MMS19-MIP18-XPD), is required for proper chromosome segregation, an abnormality of which could contribute to the pathogenesis in some cases of XP-D and XP-D/CS.
Excision-repair cross-complementing 1 (ERCC1), xeroderma pigmentosum group D (XPD) and ribonucleotide reductase subunit M1 (RRM1) are essential to the repair of cisplatin DNA adducts.
The CDA Lys(27)Lys polymorphism significantly correlated with better clinical benefit (P = 0.04) and grade > or =3 neutropenia and thrombocytopenia, as well as with longer TTP and OS (P = 0.006 and P = 0.002, respectively), whereas no significant associations were found among ERCC1 and XPD polymorphisms and both response and clinical outcome.
