We investigated the genetic basis for these findings by analysing the Asp312Asn and Lys751Gln polymorphisms of the XPD (ERCC2) DNA repair gene in the same subjects.
We consider the possible consequences of the reduced cellular content of TFIIH for the clinical symptoms in XP-B or XP-D patients, and discuss a 'conditional phenotype' that may involve an impairment of cellular function only under certain growth conditions.
We aimed to determine the associations of genetic polymorphisms of excision repair cross-complementation group 1 (ERCC1) rs11615, xeroderma pigmentosum group D (XPD/ERCC2) rs13181, X-ray repair cross complementing group 1 (XRCC1) rs25487, XRCC3 rs1799794, and breast cancer susceptibility gene 1 (BRCA1) rs1799966 from the DNA repair pathway and multiple drug resistance 1 (MDR1/ABCB1) rs1045642 with response to chemotherapy and survival of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in a Chinese population.
Whether the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) Lys751Gln of xeroderma pigmentosum group D(XPD) gene increases susceptibility to head and neck cancer (HNC) is controversial and undetermined.
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.
Correction of xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group D mutant cell phenotypes by chromosome and gene transfer: involvement of the human ERCC2 DNA repair gene.
DNA was extracted from blood samples and 15 common nonsynonymous SNPs in seven-nucleotide excision repair genes [XPC, RAD23B (hHR23B), CSB (ERCC6), XPD (ERCC2), CCNH, XPF (ERCC4), and XPG (ERCC5)] were genotyped.
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.
The Xeroderma-Pigmentosum group-D polymorphism at codon-751 (XPD-Lys751Gln) emerged as the most significant independent predictor for death- and progression-risk in our previous study on functional polymorphisms in 122 advanced pancreatic cancer patients treated with cisplatin-docetaxel-capecitabine-gemcitabine and cisplatin-epirubicin-capecitabine-gemcitabine (or EC-GemCap).
In this study, we aimed to examine whether four polymorphisms in the DNA repair genes (xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group D [XPD], X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 [XRCC1], and X-ray repair cross-complementing group 4 [XRCC4]) were associated with RA.
Our purpose is to evaluate the predictive value of the genetic polymorphisms of Excision repair cross-complementing group 1 (ERCC1) and xeroderma pigmentosum group D/excision repair cross-complementing group 2 (XPD/ERCC2) in patients with advanced colorectal cancer receiving oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy, and we performed a meta-analysis in order to obtain a more precise estimation for a more optimizing individual chemotherapy.
A photosensitive form of trichothiodystrophy (TTD) results from mutations in the same XPD gene as the DNA-repair-deficient genetic disorder xeroderma pigmentosum group D (XP-D).
The mRNA expression of DNA nucleotide excision repair genes ERCC1, XPD (ERCC2), XPB (ERCC3), and polymerase beta was found to be similar in both the MCF7-WT and MCF7-MLNr cells.
For the single nucleotide polymorphisms in XRCC1 exon 10 (Arg399Gln, G/A) and XPD exon 23 (Lys751Gln, A/C), no remarkable differences for genotype distribution and allele frequencies were observed between BC group and control group in the study.
In the multivariate Cox model, XRCC3 241 remained an independent prognostic factor (hazard ratio: XRCC3 241 MetMet, 0.44; P = 0.01), and XPD 751 and XRCC1 399 also emerged as significant prognostic factors (hazard ratios: XPD 751 LysGln, 0.46, P = 0.03; XRCC1 399 ArgGln, 0.61, P = 0.04).
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.
Haplotypes association showed that association of Gln allele of XRCC1Arg399Gln polymorphism with the Asn allele of XPDAsp312Asn polymorphism (p = 0.004) or Gln allele of XRCC1Arg399Gln polymorphism with the Gln allele of XPDLys751Gln polymorphism (p = 0.003) was highly significantly associated with the development of ESRD.
We assessed whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in xeroderma pigmentosum group D (XPD), X-ray repair cross complementing group 1 (XRCC1) and glutathione S-transferase P1 (GSTP1) predicted overall survival in gastric cancer patients receiving oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy in Chinese population.
This is the first study on DNA repair genetic polymorphisms in West Algerian population, and it suggests that the XRCC3Thr241Met and XPDLys751Gln polymorphisms may not be associated with the CRC risk in this population.
Carriers of XRCC1 glutamine (Gln), XRCC3 threonine (Thr), hOGG1 cysteine (Cys), and XPD lysine (Lys) alleles were significantly more frequent among the cohort of schizophrenia patients than in controls.
