Comparing the CRC cases versus the controls the OR was 0.60 (95%CI 0.27-1.31) for the heterozygous polymorphic genotype of SNP rs1799782 and 1.47 (95%CI 0.81-2.65) for the homozygous polymorphic genotype of SNP rs25487.

Using a family-based study, we investigated the role of polymorphisms in 4 BER genes (APEX1 Gln51His, Asp148Glu; OGG1 Ser236Cys; 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.
No significant association between Arg399Gln polymorphism and CRC risk was observed in both total population analyses and subgroup analyses based on ethnicity (OR(Co-dominant model) = 1.04, 95% CI 0.74-1.45, P (OR) = 0.82; OR(Dominant model) = 1.02, 95% CI 0.80-1.30, P (OR) = 0.88; OR (Recessive model) = 1.04, 95% CI 0.81-1.34, P (OR) = 0.78).

Six gene polymorphisms functional in drug-metabolism - GSTP1 Ile105Val, ABCB1 Ile1145Ile, MTHFR Ala222Val, TYMS double (2R) or triple (3R) tandem repeat - and DNA-repair genes - ERCC2 Lys751Gln and XRCC1 Arg399Gln - were assessed in 201 CRC patients using a polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment-length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) technique and DNA sequencing.
Our results suggest that the XRCC1 Arg399Gln polymorphism may contribute to the risk of early-onset colorectal cancer and the XRCC3 Thr241Met polymorphism may modify the risk for meat-associated colorectal cancer.
This study was designed to examine the polymorphisms associated with three DNA repair genes, namely: XRCC1 Arg399Gln, XRCC3 Thr241Met and XPD Lys751Gln, and investigate their role as susceptibility markers for colorectal cancer.
We performed a case-control study (51 cases and 100 controls) to test the association between two polymorphisms: Arg399Gln in the XRCC1 gene and Thr241Met in the XRCC3 gene and colorectal cancer risk.
Several potential functional polymorphisms in the DNA repair gene X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) Arg399Gln (rs25487), Arg194Trp (rs1799782), Arg280His (rs25489) and X-ray repair cross-complementing group 3 (XRCC3) T241M (rs861539) have been implicated in colorectal cancer (CRC) risk, but the results are conflicting.

The polymorphism of X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) Arg194Trp, a substitution of Arg to Gln at position 194, has been implicated in the development of colorectal cancer (CRC) in a number of case-control studies with contradictory and inconclusive findings.
