Abstract
This study demonstrated the association of polymorphisms in ERCC2 (Asp312Asn) rs1799793, ERCC2 (Lys751Gln) rs13181, XRCC1 (Arg399Gln) rs25487 and XRCC3(Thr241Met) rs861539 polymorphisms with a susceptibility of lung cancer (LC) onset in the Saudi population. The study was performed on 134 LC patients and 270 controls. The data revealed that there was no significant association of LC with subtype squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and adenocarcinoma with the ERCC2 rs1799793 polymorphism. The data showed that the CC genotype for ERCC2 rs13181, the AA genotype for XRCC1 rs25487, and the genotype TT for XRCC3 rs861539 were significantly associated with SCC susceptibility (p < 0.05). Similarly, the CC genotype for ERCC2 rs13181 and the AA genotype for XRCC1 rs25487 were significantly associated with adenocarcinoma susceptibility (p < 0.05). Whereas, the TT genotype for XRCC3 rs861539 was significantly associated with SCLC susceptibility (p = 0.005). In total, significant association of LC susceptibility was found in the following combination models of recessive genotypes: AC heterozygous for ERCC2 rs13181 + AA homozygous for XRCC1 rs25487, CC homozygous for ERCC2 rs13181 + GA heterozygous for rs25487, CC homozygous for rs13181 + AA homozygous for XRCC1 rs25487, CC homozygous for ERCC2 rs13181 + TT homozygous for XRCC3 rs861539, GA heterozygous for XRCC1 rs25487 + CT heterozygous for XRCC3 rs861539, GA heterozygous for XRCC1 rs25487 + TT homozygous for XRCC3 rs861539, AA homozygous for XRCC1 rs25487 + CT heterozygous for XRCC3 rs861539, AA homozygous for XRCC1 rs25487+ TT homozygous for XRCC3 rs861539. These data clearly demonstrated that the combination of recessive genotypes may be associated with susceptibility of LC onset (p < 0.05). In short, the data indicated that DNA repair genes increase LC risk via gene-gene interaction rather than independent variants.

Abstract
Background Head-and-neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is one of the most common cancers that contribute to 20%-40% of all cancer incidences in India. Indian patients with HNSCC are mostly associated with tobacco usage and may have different genetic alterations compared with Western patients who are mostly associated with human papillomavirus infection. Polymorphisms in DNA repair genes are correlated to individuals' susceptibility and progression of cancer. XRCC1 is a DNA repair enzyme. Materials and Methods In the present prospective study, Indian population of HNSCC patients (n = 45) were screened for Arg399Gln variant of XRCC1 using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism technique, prospective evaluation of the patients was done after treatment, and the single-nucleotide polymorphism results were correlated to survival functions. Results Out of 45 patients, 28 patients were Arg/Arg, 12 patients were Arg/Gln, and 5 patients were Gln/Gln. Overall survival for the entire cohort and Arg/Arg, Arg/Gln, and Gln/Gln cohort was 36.3 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 33-39.5), 38.6 (95% CI: 35.3-41.9), 35.8 (95% CI: 28.6-42.9), and 26.4 (95% CI: 13.7-39.1) months (P = 0.097), respectively. Progression-free survival (PFS) of the entire patient cohort and Arg/Arg, Arg/Gln, and Gln/Gln cohort was 35.2 (95% CI: 31.4-39.1), 38.2 (95% CI: 34.3-42.1), 32.7 (95% CI: 26.2-39.1), and 22.3 (95% CI: 9.4-35.3) (P = 0.061), respectively. Conclusions This study suggests that HNSCC patients with Gln substitution in place of Arg at position 399 (both homozygous and heterozygous) in XRCC1 protein have significantly inferior survival functions, higher recurrence rate, and events after radical treatment.

Abstract
XRCC1 is a scaffold protein that provides for interaction of DNA polymerase, DNA ligase and damaged DNA. Genotyping was done for the five non-synonymous and synonymous variants of XRCC1 i.e. XRCC1, Arg194Trp, Pro206Pro, Arg280His, Arg399Gln, Gln632Gln. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the association of XRCC1 with lung cancer, followed by data mining analysis which included both Multi-dimensionality reduction (MDR) and Classification and Regression tree (CART) analysis so as to find possible interaction between SNPs on XRCC1 gene. Statistical analysis revealed XRCC1 Gln632Gln (OR=2.67, p=<0.001) depicted an overall high risk towards lung cancer. Histological subdivision revealed carriers of mutant genotype in case of XRCC1 Arg399Gln imposed a protective effect towards SQCC subtype. Likewise, mutant genotype in XRCC1 Pro206Pro implied a protective effect for SCLC subtype (OR=0.29, p=0.0017) on the contrary XRCC1 Gln632Gln showed a high risk in SQCC diseased group (OR=4.16, p=<0.0001). Combination of XRCC1 Gln632Gln with other SNPs revealed XRCC1 Gln632Gln with Arg194Trp (OR=2.10, p=0.03) and Pro206Pro (OR=5.6, p<0.0004) increased an overall risk towards lung cancer. Haplotype analysis illustrated haplotype block 11 (CGAGG) carrying minor allele for XRCC1 206 was associated with the highest risk towards lung cancer on the contrary block 4 (CAGAG) carrying mutant allele for XRCC1 399 significantly decreased the risk. Multi-dimensionality reduction (MDR) results showed the three factor model comprising XRCC1 206, 632, 280 as the best model (CVC=10, prediction error=0.34). Further Classification and Regression tree (CART) analysis revealed terminal node 1 carrying mutant of XRCC1 632 and wild type of XRCC1 280 represented the highest risk group. Our results demonstrated high order interaction between SNPs of XRCC1 gene. This study depicted a positive association of XRCC1 Gln632Gln towards lung cancer, however XRCC1 Arg399Gln, Arg194Trp showed an overall no effect or protective effect.

Abstract
DNA repair plays an important role in maintaining the integrity of the genome by repairing DNA damage induced by carcinogens. Certain genetic polymorphisms that occur in DNA-repair genes may affect the ability to repair DNA defects, and may represent a risk factor in carcinogenesis. The gene XRCC1 is involved in DNA repair. The purpose of our study was to investigate the association between XRCC1 Arg194Trp and Arg399Gln polymorphisms and the risk of lung cancer in a Romanian population. We recruited 222 healthy controls and 102 patients with lung cancer. Genotypes were determined by multiplex polymerase chain-reaction restriction fragment-length polymorphism. Statistical analysis (odds ratio, recessive model) revealed an increased risk for lung cancer for the homozygous 194Trp genotype (χ2=0.186, odds ratio 10.667, 95% confidence interval 1.309–86.933; P=0.007). Also, we found an association between the 194Trp allele and women with lung adenocarcinoma. In conclusion, the results of the study place the XRCC1 Arg194Trp polymorphism among independent risk factors for developing lung cancer.

Abstract
Lung cancer is a malignant tumor with high mortality in both women and men. To study the mechanisms of smoking-induced lung cancer, we analyzed microarray of GSE4115. GSE4115 was downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus including 78 and 85 bronchial epithelium tissue samples separately from smokers with and without lung cancer. Limma package in R was used to screen differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Hierarchical cluster analysis for DEGs was conducted using orange software and visualized by distance map. Using DAVID software, functional and pathway enrichment analyses separately were conducted for the DEGs. And protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed using Cytoscape software. Then, the pathscores of enriched pathways were calculated. Besides, functional features were screened and optimized using the recursive feature elimination (RFE) method. Additionally, the support vector machine (SVM) method was used to train model. Total 1923 DEGs were identified between the two groups. Hierarchical cluster analysis indicated that there were differences in gene level between the two groups. And SVM analysis indicated that the five features had potential diagnostic value. Importantly, MAPK1 (degree=30), SRC (degree=29), SMAD4 (degree=23), EEF1A1 (degree=21), TRAF2 (degree=21) and PLCG1 (degree=20) had higher degrees in the PPI network of the DEGs. They might be involved in smoking-induced lung cancer by interacting with each other (e.g. MAPK1-SMAD4, SMAD4-EEF1A1 and SRC-PLCG1). MAPK1, SRC, SMAD4, EEF1A1, TRAF2 and PLCG1 might be responsible for the development of smoking-induced lung cancer.

Abstract
We read with great interest the paper titled "X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 codon 399 polymorphism and lung cancer risk: an updated meta-analysis" published by Wang et al in Tumor Biology, 2014, 35:411-418. Their results suggest that codon 399 polymorphism of XRCC1 gene might contribute to individual's susceptibility to lung cancer in Asian population and especially in nonsmoking Chinese women. The result is encouraging. Nevertheless, several key issues are worth noticing.

Abstract
The Arg194Trp polymorphism in the X-ray cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) had been implicated in cancer susceptibility. The previous published data on the association between XRCC1 Arg194Trp polymorphism and cancer risk remained controversial. Hence, we performed a meta-analysis to investigate the association between cancer susceptibility and XRCC1 Arg194Trp (59,227 cases and 81,587 controls from 201 studies) polymorphism in different inheritance models. We used odds ratios with 95 % confidence intervals to assess the strength of the association. Overall, significantly increased cancer risk was found (recessive model: (odds ration [OR] = 1.18, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.09-1.27; homozygous model: OR = 1.21, 95% CI = 1.10-1.33; additive model: OR = 1.05, 95% CI = 1.01-1.09) when all eligible studies were pooled into the meta-analysis. In further stratified and sensitivity analyses, significantly increased glioma risk was found among Asians, significantly decreased lung cancer risk was found among Caucasians, and significant increased breast cancer risk was found among hospital-based studies. In summary, this meta-analysis suggests that Arg194Trp polymorphism may be associated with increased breast cancer risk, Arg194Trp polymorphism is associated with increased glioma risk among Asians, and Arg194Trp polymorphism is associated with decreased lung cancer risk among Caucasians. In addition, our work also points out the importance of new studies for Arg194Trp association in some cancer types, such as gastric, pancreatic, prostate, and nasopharyngeal cancers, where at least some of the covariates responsible for heterogeneity could be controlled, to obtain a more conclusive understanding about the function of the XRCC1 Arg194Trp polymorphism in cancer development (I (2) > 75%).

Abstract
The current large-scale meta-analysis was performed to reach a reliable conclusion on the association between X-ray repair cross-complementing 1 (xrcc1) rs1799782 and the development of lung cancer. Studies that investigated the association between rs1799782 and lung cancer risk were identified by searching PubMed. We calculated odds ratio (OR) with corresponding 95 % confidence interval (CI) for Trp/Trp vs Arg/Arg, Trp/Trp + Arg/Trp vs Arg/Arg, and Trp/Trp vs Arg/Trp + Arg/Arg contrast models. Combining all 25 studies, we yielded three summary ORs: 1.07 (95 % CI 0.92-1.23) for Trp/Trp vs Arg/Arg, 0.93 (95 % CI 0.87-1.00) for Trp/Trp + Arg/Trp vs Arg/Arg, and 1.08 (95 % CI 0.94-1.25) for Trp/Trp vs Arg/Trp + Arg/Arg, suggesting rs1799782 was not associated with overall risk of lung cancer. Strikingly, a significantly deceased risk was found among Caucasian populations (Trp/Trp + Arg/Trp vs Arg/Arg, OR = 0.86, 95 % CI 0.76-0.97). This study confirms that xrcc1 rs1799782 may lower the risk of lung cancer among Caucasians.

Abstract
X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) gene Arg194Trp polymorphism has been reported to be associated with risk of lung cancer in many published studies. Nevertheless, the research results were inconclusive and conflicting. To reach conclusive results, several meta-analysis studies were conducted by combining results from literature reports through pooling analysis. However, these previous meta-analysis studies were still not consistent. Hence, we used an updated and cumulative meta-analysis to get a more comprehensive and precise result from 25 case–control studies searching through the PubMed database up to September 1, 2013. The meta-analysis was carried out by the Comprehensive Meta-Analysis software and the odds ratio (OR) with 95 % confidence interval (CI) was used to estimate the pooled effect. The result involving 8,876 lung cancer patients and 11,210 controls revealed that XRCC1 Arg194Trp polymorphism was not associated with lung cancer risk [(OR = 0.97, 95 %CI = 0.92–1.03) for Trp vs. Arg; (OR = 0.92, 95 % CI = 0.85–0.98) for ArgTrp vs. ArgArg; (OR = 1.07, 95 % CI = 0.92–1.23) for TrpTrp vs. ArgArg; (OR = 0.93, 95 % CI = 0.87–1.00) for (TrpTrp + ArgTrp) vs. ArgArg; and (OR = 1.08, 95 % CI = 0.94–1.25) for TrpTrp vs. (ArgTrp + ArgArg)]. The cumulative meta-analysis showed that the results maintained the same, while the ORs with 95 % CI were more stable with the accumulation of case–control studies. The sensitivity and subgroups analyses showed that the results were robust and not affected by any single study with no publication bias. Relevant studies might not be needed for supporting these results.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE DNA repair pathway genes have been implicated to play an important role in the development of lung cancer. However, contradictory results are often reported by various studies, making it difficult to interpret them. So in this meta-analysis, we have assessed the association between lung cancer risk and two DNA repair pathway genes. XRCC1 and ERCC2, by analyzing 67 published case-control studies. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We searched PubMed, Embase and Web of Science using terms "XRCC1" or "XPD" or "ERCC2" and "lung cancer" on August 1, 2012. Three criteria were applied to select included studies for resulting studies. Information was carefully extracted by two investigators independently. We used pooled odds ratio (OR) to assess the effect of a polymorphism, and a dominant model was applied where genotypes that contain the non-reference allele were combined together. All the calculations were performed using STATA version 11.0. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES AND RESULTS Three common nonsynonymous polymorphisms in XRCC1, codon 194, codon 280 and codon 399, and two common nonsynonymous polymorphisms in ERCC2, codon 312 and codon 751, were analyzed. The result showed in total population, Lys751Gln in ERCC2 is associated with an increase of lung cancer risk, with a summary OR as 1.15. No association was found for any other polymorphisms. When studies were stratified by ethnicity, the risk effect of Lys751Gln in ERCC2 was found only in Caucasians, not in Asians. CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, Lys751Gln in ERCC2 is associated with lung cancer, and the risk effect probably exists in Caucasians. By contrast, polymorphisms in XRCC1 are less likely to be susceptible to lung cancer risks.

Hence, we performed a meta-analysis to investigate the association between lung cancer risk and XRCC1 Arg399Gln (14,156 cases and 16,667 controls from 41 studies), Arg194Trp (7,426 cases and 9,603 controls from 23 studies), Arg280His (6,211 cases and 6,763 controls from 16 studies), −77T>C (2,487 cases and 2,576 controls from 5 studies), and XRCC3 T241M (8,560 cases and 11,557 controls from 19 studies) in different inheritance models. We found that −77T>C polymorphism was associated with increased lung cancer risk (dominant model: odds ration [OR] = 1.45, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.27–1.66, recessive model: OR = 1.73, 95% CI = 1.14–2.62, additive model: OR = 1.91, 95% CI = 1.24–1.94) when all the eligible studies were pooled into the meta-analysis. In the stratified and sensitive analyses, significantly decreased lung cancer risk was observed in overall analysis (dominant model: OR = 0.83, 95% CI = 0.78–0.89; recessive model: OR = 0.90, 95% CI = 0.81–1.00; additive model: OR = 0.82, 95% CI = 0.74–0.92), Caucasians (dominant model: OR = 0.82, 95% CI = 0.76–0.87; recessive model: OR = 0.89, 95% CI = 0.80–0.99; additive model: OR = 0.81, 95% CI = 0.73–0.91), and hospital-based controls (dominant model: OR = 0.81, 95% CI = 0.76–0.88; recessive model: OR = 0.89, 95% CI = 0.79–1.00; additive model: OR = 0.80, 95% CI = 0.71–0.90) for XRCC3 T241M. In conclusion, this meta-analysis indicates that XRCC1 −77T>C shows an increased lung cancer risk and XRCC3 T241M polymorphism is associated with decreased lung cancer risk, especially in Caucasians.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The X-ray repair cross-complementation group 1 (XRCC1) protein plays an important role in base excision repair. AIM To elucidate the role of XRCC1 Arg399Gln, Arg194Trp and Arg280His genotypes in esophageal cancer risk, all available studies were considered in the present meta-analysis. METHODS Eligible studies were identified by searching several electronic databases for relevant reports published before June 2012. RESULTS According to the inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria, a total of 21 eligible studies were included in the pooled analyses. Among the 21 studies, 18 focused on Arg399Gln polymorphism, 11 described the Arg194Trp, and 4 articles investigated on Arg280His. Our analysis suggested that there was no evidence of significant association between XRCC1 Arg399Gln polymorphism and esophageal cancer risk in any genetic model. In the stratified analysis by ethnicity for Arg399Gln polymorphism and esophageal cancer, the results showed that Arg399Gln polymorphism was not associated with esophageal cancer risk. Only 4 studies analyzed the relationship between XRCC1 Arg280His polymorphism and the risk of esophageal cancer. The Arg/His and His/His genotypes were not significantly associated with increased risk of EC. A similar negative association was maintained in dominant and recessive models. However, for XRCC1 Arg194Trp polymorphism, our study showed individuals carrying the variant genotype Trp/Trp had a significant increased risk of esophageal cancer (OR = 1.295, 95 % CI 1.053-1.591, P = 0.014). In addition, increased associations were found in recessive model (OR = 1.332, 95 % CI 1.093-1.624, P = 0.005). CONCLUSIONS Our meta-analysis suggested that Arg194Trp Trp allele might act as a risk allele in its association with esophageal cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Genetic variation in glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) may contribute to lung cancer risk. Many studies have investigated the correlation between the Glutathione S-transferase T1 (GSTT1) null genotype and lung cancer risk in Asian population but yielded inconclusive results. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS We performed a meta-analysis of 23 studies including 4065 cases and 5390 controls. We assessed the strength of the association of GSTT1 with lung cancer risk and performed sub-group analyses by source of controls, smoking status, histological types, and sample size. A statistically significant correlation between GSTT1 null genotype and lung cancer in Asian population was observed (OR = 1.28, 95% CI = 1.10, 1.49; Pheterogeneity<0.001 and I(2) = 62.0%). Sub-group analysis revealed there was a statistically increased lung cancer risk in ever-smokers who carried the GSTT1 null genotype (OR = 1.94, 95% CI = 1.27, 2.96; P heterogeneity = 0.02 and I(2) = 58.1%). It was also indicated that GSTT1 null genotype could increase lung cancer risk among population-based studies (OR = 1.25, 95% CI = 1.04, 1.50; Pheterogeneity = 0.003 and I(2) = 56.8%). The positive association was also found in studies of sample size (≤500 participants) (OR = 1.34, 95% CI = 1.10, 1.62; Pheterogeneity<0.001 and I(2) = 65.4%). CONCLUSIONS These meta-analysis results suggest that GSTT1 null genotype is associated with a significantly increased risk of lung cancer in Asian population.

Abstract
Lung cancer is one of the most common and deadliest cancers in the world. The major socio-environmental risk factor involved in the development of lung cancer is cigarette smoking. Additionally, there are multiple genetic factors, which may also play a role in lung cancer risk. Early work focused on the presence of relatively prevalent but low-penetrance alterations in candidate genes leading to increased risk of lung cancer. Development of new technologies such as genomic profiling and genome-wide association studies has been helpful in the detection of new genetic variants likely involved in lung cancer risk. In this review, we discuss the role of multiple genetic variants and review their putative role in the risk of lung cancer. Identifying genetic biomarkers and patterns of genetic risk may be useful in the earlier detection and treatment of lung cancer patients.

Abstract
X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 gene (XRCC1) has been implicated in risk for lung cancer. However, the results from different studies remain controversial. In this meta-analysis, we have assessed 44 published case-control studies regarding associations of lung cancer risk with three common polymorphisms, codon 194, codon 280 and codon 399, and -77 T > C in the promoter region of XRCC1. The results in total population showed that the risk for lung cancer was increased among the variant homozygote Trp/Trp of codon 194 polymorphism, compared with the wild type Arg/Arg (OR: 1.19; 95 % CI 1.01-1.39), and the variant genotype CC of -77 T > C polymorphism showed a significantly increased risk of developing lung cancer, compared to wild-type genotype TT (OR: 1.91; 95 % CI 1.24-2.94). However, no associations were found between lung cancer risk and codon 280, codon 399. In the subgroup analyses by ethnicity, the OR for the variant homozygote Trp/Trp of codon 194 was 1.21(95 % CI 1.02-1.43) for Asian. When stratified by source of control, we found a protective effect of codon 194 Arg/Trp genotype (OR: 0.87; 95 % CI 0.77-0.98) and risk effect of codon 399 combined Arg/Gln + Gln/Gln variant genotype (OR: 1.09; 95 % CI 1.01-1.18) for lung cancer on the basis of hospital control. Subgroup analyses by histological types of lung cancer indicated that the heterozygote Arg/Trp in codon 194 could decrease and the combined variant genotype Arg/Gln + Gln/Gln in codon 399 could increase the risk of non-small cell lung cancer (OR: 0.69; 95 % CI 0.57-0.85 and OR: 1.14; 95 % CI 1.04-1.24). In conclusion, this meta-analysis has demonstrated that codon 194, codon 399 and -77 T > C polymorphisms of XRCC1 gene might have contributed to individual susceptibility to lung cancer. To further evaluate effect of XRCC1 polymorphisms, gene-gene interaction and gene-environment interaction on lung cancer risk, a single large sample size study with thousands of subjects is required to get conclusive results.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a serious public health issue, the incidence of which is considered to be closely related to tobacco smoking, alcohol consumption, hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and family history. The DNA repair system is an important protective mechanism against the development of malignant cells induced by internal and external environmental factors. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of polymorphisms of XRCC1-194, XRCC1-280 and XPD-312 DNA repair genes and the risk of development of HCC in Han Chinese patients. A case-control design was used including 252 HCC inpatients and 250 healthy controls recruited and matched by age, gender, tobacco smoking, alcohol consumption, HBV infection and family history. XPD Asp312Asn, XRCC1 Arg194Trp and XRCC1 Arg280His genes were examined using a sequencing assay method. Distributions of the genotype frequency and odds ratio (OR) between the two groups were analyzed. The results demonstrated that there was no significant difference in the frequencies of XPD Asp312Asn, XRCC1 Arg194Trp and XRCC1 Arg280His in the HCC cases and the control group. In the stratified analysis of different allele genotypes, the frequency of the XRCC1-194 site genotype was not significantly different between the case and control group. The presence of the XRCC1 280His genotype was associated with a significantly increased risk of HCC under conditions of HBV infection and family history [OR (95% CI): 1.68 (1.08-2.60), 4.20 (1.34-13.20), respectively]. Similarly, the XPD 312Asn significantly increased the risk of HCC under conditions of alcohol consumption, tobacco smoking, HBV infection and family history [OR (95% CI): 1.67 (1.10-2.60), 1.87 (1.18-2.96), 1.96 (1.24-3.10), 3.40 (1.32-8.76), respectively]. In conclusion, tobacco smoking and alcohol consumption are high risk factors of HCC for the XPD 312Asn genotype; HBV infection and family history increase the risk of HCC for the genotypes XRCC1 280His and XPD 312Asn.

Abstract
Advanced stage non-small cell lung cancer and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma are both treated with DNA damaging agents including platinum-based compounds and radiation therapy. However, at least one quarter of all tumors are resistant or refractory to these genotoxic agents. Yet the agents are extremely toxic, leading to undesirable side effects with potentially no benefit. Alternative therapies exist, but currently there are no tools to predict whether the first-line genotoxic agents will work in any given patient. To maximize therapeutic success and limit unnecessary toxicity, emerging clinical trials aim to inform personalized treatments tailored to the biology of individual tumors. Worldwide, significant resources have been invested in identifying biomarkers for guiding the treatment of lung and head and neck cancer. DNA repair proteins of the nucleotide excision repair pathway (ERCC1) and of the base excision repair pathway (XRCC1), which are instrumental in clearing DNA damage caused by platinum drugs and radiation, have been extensively studied as potential biomarkers of clinical outcomes in lung and head and neck cancers. The results are complex and contradictory. Here we summarize the current status of single nucleotide polymorphisms, mRNA, and protein expression of ERCC1 and XRCC1 in relation to cancer risk and patient outcomes.

Abstract
Although genetic susceptibility to nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) has been recognized for a long time, little is known about the responsible genes. X-Ray repair cross-complementing protein 1 (XRCC1) and human 8-oxo-guanine glycosylase 1 (hOGG1) genes are involved in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) repair and were found associated with NPC risk in three Asian case-control studies. The objective of the present study was to test these genes in a sample from North Africa, one of the major NPC endemic regions in the world. Three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the XRCC1 gene and one SNP in the hOGG1 gene were genotyped in 598 NPC cases from Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia and 545 controls frequency matched by recruitment center, age, sex, and urban/rural household. The genotype and allelic distributions for the hOGG1 (326)Ser/Cys SNP and for the XRCC1 (399)Arg/Trp, (280)Arg/His, and (194)Arg/Trp SNPs did not differ significantly among NPC cases and controls. The XRCC1 (194)Trp allele frequency was significantly lower in the North African population than in Asian population (f = 0.04 vs. 0.31 in Cantonese Chinese and 0.21 Han Chinese). The hOGG1 (326)Ser allele frequency was significantly higher in the North African population (f = 0.73) than in Asian populations (f = 0.39 in Taiwanese). The results of the present study obtained from a large sample indicate that the XRCC1 and hOGG1 genes are unlikely to play a role in the susceptibility to NPC in North Africans. Our results do not corroborate those found in Asian population on smaller samples.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and haplotypes in the x-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) gene, which is one of the base excision repair genes, are thought to be associated with the risk of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS We genotyped three coding (Arg280His, Arg399Gln, and Gln632Gln) SNPs and six haplotype-tagging SNPs (htSNPs) for 140 advanced NSCLC cases and 217 healthy controls (all Koreans) using unconditional logistic regression analysis, and this was adjusted for age, gender, and the smoking status. The haplotypes were reconstructed according to the genotyping data and the linkage disequilibrium status of these nine SNPs. RESULTS The minor allele heterozygotes of the rs1001581 htSNP showed an increased risk of NSCLC (adjusted odds ratio = 2.118, p = 0.013), and the minor allele homozygotes of the rs2293036 htSNP showed a decreased risk of NSCLC (adjusted odds ratio = 0.363, p = 0.020). Seven possible haplotypes were demonstrated in this study (haplotype frequency >1%). The GGGGGGGGG haplotype, which is composed of nine major alleles, showed a protective effect for developing NSCLC (odds ratio = 0.433, p = 0.002); however, the GGGGGGAGG haplotype that contained the minor allele of the rs1001581 demonstrated an increased risk of NSCLC (odds ratio = 1.597, p = 0.044). The above associations were similarly noted for the never smokers, and so the smoking status might modify the associations between the x-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) genetic variants and the risk of developing NSCLC. On 10-million permutation testing, only the GGGGGGGGG haplotype was significantly associated with a decreased risk of NSCLC in the total group (p = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS This study presents several novel aspects of the genetic susceptibility to develop NSCLC. Larger studies that will focus on the role of the rs1001581 and rs2293036 htSNPs and haplotypes for developing NSCLC are needed in the future.

Abstract
Genetic polymorphisms are increasingly recognized as sources of variability not only in toxicokinetic but also in toxicodynamic response to environmental agents. XRCC1 is involved in base excision repair (BER) of DNA; it has variant genotypes that are associated with modified repair function. This analysis focuses on four polymorphisms: three in the coding region that affect protein structure and one in an upstream regulatory sequence that affects gene expression. The Arg399Gln variant is the most widely studied with evidence supporting a quantitative effect of genotype on phenotype. The homozygous variant (Gln/Gln) can have 3-4-fold diminished capacity to remove DNA adducts and oxidized DNA damage. This variant is relatively common in Caucasians and Asians where approximately 10% are homozygous variant. In contrast, the Arg194Trp variant appears to protect against genotoxic effects although the degree to which DNA repair is enhanced by this polymorphism is uncertain. The homozygous variant is rare in Caucasians and African Americans but it is present at 7% in Asians. A third coding region polymorphism at codon 280 appears to decrease repair function but additional quantitative information is needed and the homozygous variant is rare across populations studied. A polymorphism in an upstream promoter binding sequence (-77T>C) appears to lower XRCC1 levels by decreasing gene expression. Based upon genotype effect on phenotype and allele frequency, the current analysis finds that the codon 399 and upstream (-77) polymorphisms have the greatest potential to affect the toxicodynamic response to DNA damaging agents. However, the implications for risk assessment are limited by the likelihood that polymorphisms in multiple BER genes interact to modulate DNA repair.

Abstract
BACKGROUND DNA repair gene X-ray repair cross complementing group 1 (XRCC1) Arg194Trp polymorphism has been investigated widely on lung cancer risk. However, the results are inconclusive. To derive a more precise estimation of the relationship between XRCC1 Arg194Trp polymorphism and lung cancer risk, we performed this meta-analysis. METHODS An electronic search of the database PubMed, Embase, and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure was performed. The odds ratio (OR) was pooled by STATA 10.1. Subgroup analyses by ethnicity, gender, smoking, and histologic types of lung cancer were performed. RESULTS Twenty-two studies including 7515 cases and 9560 controls were identified ultimately. The pooled OR for total population showed that homozygous Trp/Trp variant genotype could increase lung cancer risk compared with the homozygous wild Arg/Arg genotype (OR = 1.22, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.04-1.44, p = 0.01); however, heterozygote Arg/Trp variant genotype could decrease lung cancer risk (OR = 0.91, 95% CI = 0.85-0.99, p = 0.02). Subgroup analyses by ethnicity confirmed the result that homozygous Trp/Trp variant genotype increased lung cancer risk in Asians (OR = 1.19, 95% CI = 1.01-1.41, p = 0.04) but not in whites. It was interesting to find that both the heterozygote Arg/Trp and the combined Trp/Trp + Arg/Trp variant genotypes could decrease the risk of lung cancer in whites (OR = 0.83, 95% CI = 0.72-0.96, p = 0.01; OR = 0.85, 95% CI = 0.74-0.98, p = 0.03, respectively) but not in Asians. Subgroup analyses by gender, smoking, and histologic types of lung cancer did not indicate any significant difference between cases and controls, excepted for male population, which carried heterozygote Arg/Trp variant genotype that could decrease lung cancer risk (OR = 0.54, 95% CI = 0.31-0.95, p = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS Homozygous Trp/Trp variant genotype of XRCC1 Arg194Trp polymorphism could increase lung cancer risk in total population, especially in Asians. However, the heterozygote Arg/Trp variant genotype might decrease the risk of lung cancer, especially in whites.

Abstract
Genetic variations in DNA repair genes are thought to modulate DNA repair capacity and are suggested to be related to lung cancer risk. We conducted a meta-analysis of epidemiologic studies on the association between genetic polymorphisms in both base excision repair and nucleotide excision repair pathways, and lung cancer. We found xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group A (XPA) G23A (odds ratio (OR) = 0.76, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.61–0.94), 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase 1 (OGG1) Ser326Cys (OR = 1.22, 95% CI = 1.02–1.45), and excision repair cross-complementing group 2 (ERCC2) Lys751Gln (OR = 1.27, 95% CI = 1.10–1.46) polymorphisms were associated with lung cancer risk. Considering the data available, it can be conjectured that if there is any risk association between a single SNP and lung cancer, the risk fluctuation will probably be minimal. Advances in the identification of new polymorphisms and in high-throughput genotyping techniques will facilitate the analysis of multiple genes in multiple DNA repair pathways. Therefore, it is likely that the defining feature of future epidemiologic studies will be the simultaneous analysis of large samples of cases and controls.

Abstract
BACKGROUND When the case-only study design is used to estimate statistical interaction between genetic (G) and environmental (E) exposures, G and E must be independent in the underlying population, or the case-only estimate of interaction (COR) will be biased. Few studies have examined the occurrence of G-E association in published control group data. METHODS To examine the assumption of G-E independence in empirical data, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of G-E associations in controls for frequently investigated DNA repair genes (XRCC1 Arg399Gln, Arg194Trp, or Arg280His, XPD Lys751Gln, and Asp312Asn, and XRCC3 Thr241Met), and smoking (ever/never smoking, current/not current smoker, smoking duration, smoking intensity, and pack-years). RESULTS Across the 55 included studies, single nucleotide polymorphisms SNP-smoking associations in controls (OR(z)) were not reliably at the null value of 1.0 for any SNP-smoking combinations. Two G-E combinations were too heterogeneous for summary estimates: XRCC1 399 and ever-never smoking (N = 21), and XPD 751 and pack-years (N = 12). OR(z) ranges for these combinations were: [OR(z) (95% confidence interval (CI)] 0.7 (0.4, 1.2)-1.9 (1.2, 2.8) and 0.8 (0.5, 1.3)-2.3 (0.8, 6.1), respectively). Estimates for studies considered homogeneous (Cochran's Q P-value <0.10) varied 2- to 5-fold. No study characteristics were identified that could explain heterogeneity. CONCLUSIONS We recommend the independence assumption be evaluated in the population underlying any potential case-only study, rather than in a proxy control group(s) or pooled controls. IMPACT These results suggest that G-E association in controls may be population-specific. Increased access to control data would improve evaluation of the independence assumption.

Abstract
PURPOSE Studies on polymorphism of X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1), group 3 (XRCC3), and colorectal cancer risk are inconclusive. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the role of XRCC1 R399Q, R194W, and XRCC3 T241M genotypes in colorectal cancer susceptibility. METHODS We performed a meta-analysis on all available studies that provided 3,514/4,686 cases/controls for R399Q, 2,767/3,907 cases/controls for R194W and 3,183/3,926 cases/controls for T241M. RESULTS Overall, no apparent effects of 194 W allele compared to 194R on colorectal cancer risk were found in all subjects and subgroups (Asians and Caucasians). Insignificant effects were also found under other genetic contrasts (homologous contrast, dominant model, and recessive model). The same pattern of results was produced in T241M polymorphism. The 399Q allele compared to 399R showed no significant association with colorectal cancer risk in all subjects and subgroups. However, protective effects of 399QQ genotype were observed under recessive model (QQ/QR + RR) [P = 0.02, OR = 0.84, 95% CI (0.72, 0.97)] and homozygote contrast (QQ/RR) [P = 0.01, OR = 0.81; 95% CI (0.69, 0.95)] in all subjects. CONCLUSION Results suggested that 399Q allele might act as a recessive allele in its association with colorectal cancer.

Abstract
The X-ray repair cross-complementing Group1 (XRCC1) gene has been defined as essential in the base excision repair (BER) and single-strand break repair processes. This gene is highly polymorphic, and the most extensively studied genetic changes are in exon 6 (Arg194Trp) and in exon 10 (Arg399Gln). These changes, in conserved protein sites, may alter the base excision repair capacity, increasing the susceptibility to adverse health conditions, including cancer. In the present study, we estimated the frequencies of the XRCC1 gene polymorphisms Arg194Trp and Arg399Gln in healthy individuals and also in women at risk of breast cancer due to family history from Rio de Janeiro. The common genotypes in both positions (194 and 399) were the most frequent in this Brazilian sample. Although the 194Trp variant was overrepresented in women reporting familial cases of breast cancer, no statistically significant differences concerning genotype distribution or intragenic interactions were found between this group and the controls. Thus, in the population analyzed by us, variants Arg194Trp and Arg399Gln did not appear to have any impact on breast cancer susceptibility.

Abstract
Genetic variations in DNA repair genes are thought to modify DNA repair capacity and suggested to be related to cancer risk. However, epidemiological results have been inconsistent. In this meta-analysis, we assessed reported studies of association between polymorphisms of X-ray repair cross complementing group 1 (XRCC1) codon 399 and 194, and lung cancer risk. We found decreased lung cancer risk among subjects carrying XRCC1 codon 194 Arg/Trp genotype [odds ratio (OR)=0.88, 95% confidence interval (95% CI): 0.79-0.97], using 4848 cases and 6592 controls from 16 studies. There was no association between lung cancer risk and XRCC1 codon 399 polymorphism in total population, when stratified by source of control, we found a protective effect of the XRCC1 codon 399 Gln/Gln and Arg/Gln or Gln/Gln polymorphisms for lung cancer on the basis of population control (OR=0.73, 95% CI: 0.58-0.92; OR=0.86, 95% CI: 0.77-0.97, respectively). Data indicated that certain XRCC1 codon 399 and 194 variant may affect the susceptibility of lung cancer. Recommendations for further studies include pooling of individual data to facilitate evaluation of multigenic effects and detailed analysis of effect modification by environmental exposure.

Abstract
X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1), one of the >20 genes that participate in the base excision repair (BER) pathway, is thought to account for differences in lung cancer susceptibility. Our meta-analysis on 2861 cases (lung cancer patients) and 2783 controls from eight eligible studies in Chinese populations showed that for the XRCC1 Arg194Trp polymorphism, compared with the Arg/Arg homozygous genotype, the variant Arg/Trp and Trp/Trp genotypes combined was not associated with lung cancer risk (OR=1.06, 95% confidence interval [CI]=0.89-1.27) (Z=0.70, P=0.48), nor was Arg280His (OR=0.63, 95% CI=0.28-1.41) (Z=1.12, P=0.26); however, for the XRCC1 Arg399Gln polymorphism, the combination of variant Arg/Gln and Gln/Gln genotypes was borderline significantly associated with lung cancer risk (OR=1.16, 95% CI=1.00-1.36) (Z=1.90, P=0.06), compared with the Arg/Arg homozygous genotype. Therefore, in the eight published studies in Chinese populations, we found little evidence of an association between the combined variant genotypes of the XRCC1Arg399Gln polymorphism and the increased risk of lung cancer.

Abstract
Apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) is an essential enzyme in the base excision repair pathway, which is the primary mechanism for the repair of DNA damage caused by oxidation and alkylation. We hypothesized that polymorphisms of APE1 are associated with risk for lung cancer. In the hospital-based matched case-control study, a total of 730 lung cancer cases and 730 cancer-free controls were genotyped for four APE1 haplotype-tagging polymorphisms (that is, -656T>G, 400A>G, 630T>C, and 1350T>G). Among them, the single-nucleotide polymorphism -656T>G located in the promoter region of APE1 was significantly associated with risk for lung cancer. We found that, compared with -656 TT homozygotes, the variant genotypes were associated with a significantly decreased risk [adjusted odds ratio, 0.51; 95% confidence interval (95% CI), 0.33-0.79 for -656 TG; adjusted odds ratio, 0.43; 95% CI, 0.25-0.76 for -656 GG, respectively]. Furthermore, we found a statistically significant reduced risk of -656T>G variants among heavy smokers (adjusted odds ratio, 0.52; 95% CI, 0.30-0.93 for -656 TG; adjusted odds ratio, 0.27; 95% CI, 0.13-0.57 for -656 GG, respectively), with a significant gene-smoking interaction (P = 0.013). A similar gene-smoking interaction in the context of APE1 haplotypes was also observed. The in vitro promoter assay revealed that the -656 G allele had a significantly higher transcriptional activity than that of the -656 T allele. Together, our results suggest that polymorphisms of the APE1 gene possibly interact with smoking and may contribute to the development of lung cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the life-threatening malignancies worldwide with hepatitis B and C virus infection as the major risk factor. The risk of HCC might also increase because of the hereditary genetic defects in DNA repair genes. In this regard, X-ray cross-complementing group 1 gene (XRCC1) is a major DNA repair gene involved in base excision repair (BER). AIM The present study was designed with an aim to find out any possible association between XRCC1 (codons 194, 280, and 399) polymorphisms and the risk of developing hepatitis virus-related HCC in Indian population. METHODS A total of 407 subjects comprising (170 controls, 174 chronic viral hepatitis, and 63 HCC subjects) were included in the study. PCR-RFLP was used for the genotyping of the three codons of XRCC1. RESULTS The study revealed that two genotypes Arg194Trp and Arg280His increased the risk of HCC by 2.27- (95% CI = 1.01-5.08; P < 0.001) and 4.95-folds (95% CI = 2.48-9.89; P < 0.001), respectively. Interestingly, the risk for HCC was further enhanced by 35.96 (95% CI = 11.64-110.91; P < 0.001) and 5.28 times (95% CI = 2.81-9.09; P < 0.001) when the genotype Arg280His was found in association with Arg194Trp and Arg399Gln, respectively. CONCLUSION These preliminary results suggest a positive association of XRCC1 genotypes and risk of hepatitis virus-related HCC in India.

Abstract
Base excision repair pathway may play an important role in repairing DNA damage related to Helicobacter pylori-induced inflammatory process. To evaluate the association between genetic polymorphisms of X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1, Arg194Trp and Arg399Gln), adenosine diphosphate ribosyl transferase (ADPRT, Val762Ala), 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase (OGG1, Ser326Cys) and apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1, Asp148Glu) and evolution of H.pylori-associated precancerous gastric lesions, a population-based cohort study was conducted in Linqu County, a high-risk area of gastric cancer in China. Genotypes were determined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography and PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis in 1281 H.pylori-infected subjects. We found that subjects carrying the combined XRCC1-194Arg/Trp+Trp/Trp genotype had an elevated chance of regression of gastric lesions [adjusted odds ratio (OR) = 1.44; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.06-1.96], whereas subjects carrying the XRCC1-399Arg/Gln+Gln/Gln genotype had a decreased chance of regression (OR = 0.68; 95% CI = 0.49-0.92). Stratified analysis indicated that an increased risk of progression was observed in subjects carrying the XRCC1-399Arg/Gln+Gln/Gln genotype (OR = 1.60; 95% CI = 1.09-2.36) or OGG1-326Ser/Cys+Cys/Cys genotype (OR = 1.95; 95% CI = 1.03-3.71) with intestinal metaplasia or dysplasia at baseline or carrying the XRCC1-399Arg/Gln+Gln/Gln genotype and smoking (OR = 1.58; 95% CI = 1.02-2.45). Furthermore, a significantly increased risk of progression was observed in subjects carrying one or two hazard genotypes of XRCC1-399 or OGG1-326, the OR was 2.83 (95% CI = 1.32-6.08), 2.22 (95% CI = 1.24-3.98) or 2.27 (95% CI = 1.26-4.10), respectively. These findings suggest that genetic polymorphisms in XRCC1-Arg194Trp, XRCC1-Arg399Gln and OGG1-Ser326Cys may play important roles in the evolution of H.pylori-associated gastric lesions in this high-risk population.

Abstract
A general analysis method is proposed that utilizes meta-analysis to incorporate similar studies in addition to our current investigation in order to obtain informative prior effect parameters in a logistic regression model. It is common in epidemiological studies that data from similar previous studies are available. The case of gene susceptibility association with increased lung cancer frequency was used to demonstrate this methodology. Results of Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) iterations provided a more precise estimation of the regression coefficient in a logistic model with informative prior distribution compared to the noninformative prior distribution model. In situations where similar historical data are available, it is proposed to include as much relevant information as previously published results in the analysis of current data.

Many studies have suggested that adenosine diphosphate ribosyl transferase (ADPRT), X-ray repair cross-complementing 1 (XRCC1), and xeroderma pigmentosum complementary group D (XPD) are three major DNA base excision repair (BER) genes and that they act interactively in stimulating and executing BER processes. Polymorphisms of these genes may influence the rate of gene transcription, the stability of the messenger RNA, or the quantity and activity of the resulting protein. Thus, the susceptibility or severity of several disorders is influenced by possession of specific alleles of polymorphic genes. So, it is plausible that variations and mutations in these genes affect DNA repair capacity in normal populations, and thus facilitate cancer development in normal or exposed individuals. To promote translation of scientific findings for potential clinical application of DNA repair function, we have searched publications relevant to molecular epidemiology studies of associations between single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the genes, and several frequent human cancer. We have focused on five particular polymorphisms as our starting point: the T-->C polymorphism (Val762Ala) in exon 17 of ADPRT, the novel transition at the promoter region (-77T-->C) of XRCC1, two common nonsynonymous polymorphisms (Arg194Trp and Arg399Gln), and the C-->A silent polymorphism (Arg156Arg) in exon 6 of XPD. We review here the case-control studies examining whether these polymorphisms are correlated with reduced DNA repair efficiency, their influence on the development of different solid tumors, and their possible interactions with other genetic factors and environmental exposures.

Base excision repair genes and risk of lung cancer among San Francisco Bay Area Latinos and African-Americans. Carcinogenesis 2009; 30:78-87. [PMID: 19029194 PMCID: PMC2722143 DOI: 10.1093/carcin/bgn261] [Citation(s) in RCA: 55] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2008] [Revised: 11/17/2008] [Accepted: 11/18/2008] [Indexed: 01/02/2023] Open
Abstract
Base excision repair (BER) is the primary DNA damage repair mechanism for repairing small base lesions resulting from oxidation and alkylation damage. This study examines the association between 24 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) belonging to five BER genes (XRCC1, APEX1, PARP1, MUTYH and OGG1) and lung cancer among Latinos (113 cases and 299 controls) and African-Americans (255 cases and 280 controls). The goal was to evaluate the differences in genetic contribution to lung cancer risk by ethnic groups. Analyses of individual SNPs and haplotypes were performed using unconditional logistic regressions adjusted for age, sex and genetic ancestry. Four SNPs among Latinos and one SNP among African-Americans were significantly (P < 0.05) associated with either risk of all lung cancer or non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, only the association between XRCC1 Arg399Gln (rs25487) and NSCLC among Latinos (odds ratio associated with every copy of Gln = 1.52; 95% confidence interval: 1.01-2.28) had a false-positive report probability of <0.5. Arg399Gln is a SNP with some functional evidence and has been shown previously to be an important SNP associated with lung cancer, mostly for Asians. Since the analyses were adjusted for genetic ancestry, the observed association between Arg399Gln and NSCLC among Latinos is unlikely to be confounded by population stratification; however, this result needs to be confirmed by additional studies among the Latino population. This study suggests that there are genetic differences in the association between BER pathway and lung cancer between Latinos and African-Americans.

Abstract
X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) is one of the major DNA repair proteins involved in the base excision repair (BER) and single-strand break repair (SSBR) pathway. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in XRCC1 may alter protein function and repair capacity, thus lead to genetic instability and carcinogenesis. To establish our understanding of possible relationships between XRCC1 polymorphisms (5'UTR -77T>C, Arg194Trp, Arg280His and Arg399Gln) and the susceptibility to lung cancer among women nonsmokers, we performed a hospital-based case-control study of 350 patients with newly diagnosed lung cancer and 350 cancer-free controls, frequency matched by age. Our results showed that exposure to cooking oil fume was associated with increased risk of lung cancer in Chinese women nonsmokers [odds ratio (OR)=2.51, 95% confidence interval (CI) [1.80-3.51], P<0.001]. Individuals with homozygous XRCC1 399Gln/Gln genotype (OR=1.75, 95% CI [1.02-3.01]) and XRCC1 -77 combined TC and CC genotype (OR=1.66, 95% CI [1.13-2.42]) showed a slightly higher risk for lung cancer overall. In the subgroup of adenocarcinoma cases, adjusted ORs were increased for individuals with homozygous XRCC1 399Gln/Gln genotype (OR=2.62, 95% CI [1.44-4.79]) and XRCC1 -77 combined TC and CC genotype (OR=1.85, 95% CI [1.19-2.86]). Haplotype analysis showed that T-Trp-Arg-Gln haplotypes were associated with an increased risk of lung cancer among women nonsmokers (OR=2.26, 95% CI [1.38-3.68]), however, we did not observe a statistically significant joint effect of cooking oil fume and 399Gln or -77C variant allele on lung cancer among women nonsmokers. In conclusion, XRCC1 Arg399Gln and T-77C polymorphisms may alter the risk of lung cancer in women nonsmokers in China.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES O-methylguanine-DNA-methyltransferase (MGMT) is a crucial DNA repair protein that removes DNA adducts formed by alkylating mutagens. Several coding single nucleotide polymorphisms (cSNPs) in the MGMT gene have been reported. Their biological significance, however, is not known. METHODS We used a newly modified cloning HPRT mutant lymphocyte assay to test the hypothesis that inheritance of the L84F and I143V coding single nucleotide polymorphism in the MGMT gene is associated with increases in HPRT mutant frequency in lymphocytes of individuals exposed to alkylating agents. In addition, we expanded and sequenced 109 mutant clones to test the hypothesis that the mutation spectrum would shift to a larger percentage of base substitutions and G-->A transition mutations in cells with L84F and I143 V coding single nucleotide polymorphisms. RESULTS We observed no significant effect for the I143 V coding single nucleotide polymorphism on mutant frequency. In contrast, we observed a significant increase in mutant frequency (P<0.01) in lymphocytes from smokers with the 84F coding single nucleotide polymorphism compared with smokers homozygous for the referent L84 wild-type allele. A multiple regression analysis indicated that the mutant frequency increased significantly as a function of the 84F coding single nucleotide polymorphism and smoking, according to the model; mutant frequency (x10)=0.90+0.618 (84F polymorphism)+0.46 (smoking) with R=0.22. Mutation spectra analysis revealed an apparent increase, which was short of statistical significance (P=0.08), in base substitutions in cells with the 84F polymorphism. CONCLUSIONS These new data suggest that the 84F coding single nucleotide polymorphism may alter the phenotype of the MGMT protein, resulting in suboptimal repair of O-methylguanine lesions after exposure to alkylating agents.

Abstract
CONTEXT X-ray repair cross-complementing groups 1 and 3 (XRCC1 and XRCC3) and xeroderma pigmentosum group D (XPD) are mainly involved in base excision repair, homologous recombination repair, and nucleotide excision repair of DNA repair pathways, respectively. Previous studies have demonstrated that their gene polymorphisms were associated with some cancer susceptibility. OBJECTIVE AND DESIGN To investigate the effect of XPD Lys751Gln, XRCC1 Arg399Gln, Arg194Trp, Arg280His, and XRCC3 Thr241Met polymorphisms on the risk of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), a population-based case-control study of 153 NPC patients and 168 healthy controls among Sichuan population was conducted. RESULTS Our results showed that XRCC1 codon 194 Trp allele was associated with an increased risk of NPC (odds ratio [OR] = 1.828, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.286-2.598), and XPD codon 751Gln allele was associated with a borderline decrease of NPC (OR = 0.600, 95% CI: 0.361-1.000); combination analysis showed that individuals with both putative genotypes of XPD codon 751 Lys/Lys and XRCC1 codon 194 Arg/Trp or Trp/Trp have a significantly elevated risk of NPC (OR = 2.708, 95% CI: 1.338-5.478). CONCLUSION The results indicated that XRCC1 codon 194 Trp allele and XPD codon 751 Lys allele may be contributing factors in the risk of NPC.

Abstract
DNA repair forms the most effective defense system against DNA damage. The XRCC1 gene product is implicated in single-strand and base-excision repair mechanisms. Our main aim was to investigate the relationship between the XRCC1 gene with lung cancer on the north-Indian population. Blood samples from 225 North-Indian subjects including 103 newly diagnosed cases and 122 population-based healthy persons were collected. XRCC1 genotypes were detected using a PCR-RFLP technique. The data were analyzed by logistic regression analysis. XRCC1 polymorphisms at codon 399 were found to be protective in the development of lung cancer (OR--0.6, 95% CI--0.46-0.80, p-0.0008). The codon 194 Trp/Trp genotype was associated with a slightly increased risk of lung cancer. When assessed in nonsmokers, only the Arg/Trp genotype of XRCC1 codon 194 was positively associated with lung cancer (OR--2.3, 95% CI--0.77-7.20). Smoking also seemed to significantly interact with the combined genotypes of XRCC1 codon 399 Arg/Gln/Gln/Gln. In conclusion, the results have suggested that the XRCC1 gene might be the risk genotype for lung cancer in this population.

Abstract
Polymorphisms in DNA repair genes may be associated with differences in DNA repair capacity, thereby influencing the individual susceptibility to smoking-related cancer. We investigated the association of 10 base-excision and nucleotide-excision repair gene polymorphisms (XRCC1 -77 T/C, Arg194Trp, Arg280His and Arg399Gln; APE1 Asp148Glu; OGG1 Ser326Cys; XPA -4 G/A; XPC PAT; XPD Asp312Asn and Lys751Gln) with lung cancer risk in Caucasians. Genotypes were determined by PCR-RFLP and PCR-single base extension assays in 110 lung cancer patients and 110 age- and sex-matched controls, and the results were analyzed using logistic regression adjusted for relevant covariates. A significant association between the APE1 Asp148Glu polymorphism and lung cancer risk was found, with adjusted odds ratios (OR) of 3.38 (p=0.001) for the Asp/Glu genotype and 2.39 (p=0.038) for the Glu/Glu genotype. Gene-smoking interaction analyses revealed a statistically significant interaction between cumulative cigarette smoking and the XRCC1 Arg399Gln and XPD Lys751Gln polymorphisms: these polymorphisms were significantly associated with lung cancer in nonsmokers and light smokers (<25 PY; OR=4.92, p=0.021 for XRCC1 399 Gln/Gln; OR=3.62, p=0.049 for XPD 751 Gln/Gln), but not in heavy smokers (> or =25 PY; OR=0.68, p=0.566 for XRCC1 399 Gln/Gln; OR=0.46, p=0.295 for XPD 751 Gln/Gln). Both the XRCC1 Arg194Trp and Arg280His as well as the OGG1 Ser326Cys heterozygous genotypes were associated with a significantly reduced risk for lung cancer (OR=0.32, p=0.024; OR=0.25, p=0.028; OR=0.51, p=0.033, respectively). No associations with lung cancer risk were found for the XRCC1 -77 T/C, the XPA -4 G/A and the XPC PAT polymorphisms. In conclusion, the APE1 Asp148Glu polymorphism is highly predictive for lung cancer, and cumulative cigarette smoking modifies the associations between the XRCC1 Arg399Gln and the XPD Lys751Gln polymorphisms and lung cancer risk.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Polymorphisms of DNA repair genes can alter protein structure and may impair DNA repair capacity. Defects in repairing damaged DNA lead to genetic instability and carcinogenesis. This study was performed to evaluate the effect of the polymorphisms of DNA repair genes on risk of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). PROCEDURES We genotyped polymorphisms of X-ray repair cross-complimenting group 1 (XRCC1) codon 194 (Arg to Trp), 280 (Arg to His) and 399 (Arg to Gln), and xeroderma pigmentosum group D (XPD) codon 312 (Asp to Asn) and 715 (Lys to Gln) in 108 children with ALL and 317 healthy controls using PCR-RFLP method. The allele, genotype, and haplotype frequencies of these polymorphisms were compared between cases and controls using Chi-square or Fisher's exact test. PHASE computer software was used to analyze estimated haplotypes of the XRCC1 and XPD polymorphisms. RESULTS The frequency of XRCC1 194Trp allele in patients was significantly lower than that in controls (odds ratio (OR) 0.67; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.47-0.97). Individuals with XRCC1 194 Trp/Trp genotype had a significantly reduced risk of ALL (OR 0.22; 95% CI, 0.05-0.96). The frequency of the XRCC1 haplotype B (194Trp-280Arg-399Arg) was significantly lower in children with ALL when compared to controls. The XRCC1 399Gln allele was associated with a significantly increased risk of ALL (OR 1.67; 95% CI, 1.20-2.33). The frequency of the XRCC1 haplotype C (194Arg-280Arg-399Gln) was significantly higher in patients. There was no difference of allele frequencies of the XRCC1 280 (Arg to His), XPD 312 (Asp to Asn), or XPD 715 (Lys to Gln) between cases and controls. CONCLUSION The XRCC1 194Trp allele and haplotype B showed a protective effect against development of childhood ALL. In contrast, individuals with the XRCC1 399Gln allele and haplotype C were associated with increased risk for this disease.

Abstract
Polymorphisms in genes responsible for maintaining genomic integrity are potential modifiers of disease risk. Since considerable interindividual and interethnic variation in DNA repair capacity has been associated with polymorphic alleles, we evaluated the frequency of the 2R/3R variants in the TS promoter, Arg194Trp and Arg399Gln in the XRCC1 gene, and Asp312Asn and Lys751Gln in the XPD gene in 364 healthy individuals from a Brazilian population separated by ethnicity (European ancestry and African ancestry). The genotypes were determined by PCR (TS) or by PCR-RFLP (XRCC1 and XPD). The frequency of the TS 3R allele was 0.56 for whites and 0.51 for nonwhites. In the case of the XRCC1 MspI polymorphism, the allele frequencies were 0.09 for 194Trp in both nonwhites and whites and 0.27 and 0.28 for 399Gln in nonwhites and whites, respectively. For the XPD 312Asn allele, we found a frequency of 0.25 in white individuals, which was significantly different (P = 0.025) from that seen in nonwhites (0.15). Similarly, the 751Gln polymorphic allele of the XPD gene was significantly more frequent (P < 0.002) in whites (0.30) than in nonwhites (0.20). The genotype frequencies were within Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. We concluded that the genotype and allele frequencies of XPD gene polymorphism differed between white and nonwhite Brazilians, and that the frequencies of the XPD 312Asn and XRCC1 399Gln alleles in this Brazilian population showed ethnic variability when compared with those observed in other populations.

Abstract
This case-control study examines the association between lung cancer and genetic polymorphisms in two base excision repair (BER) genes, XRCC1 and APEX1 and two genes involved in homologous recombination repair (HR), XRCC3 and NBS1. Never-smoking lung cancer patients were recruited, and also the next diagnosed ever-smoking case of the same gender and age group. Controls were recruited from the regional population register, frequency matched to cases by hospital catchment area, gender, age group and smoking category. As a result more than 70% of the study population were women. A total of 331 individuals were analysed. Presence of the XRCC1 399Gln allele was associated with a significantly decreased risk for lung cancer among non-smoking women (odds ratio (OR) 0.4, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.2-0.9). No significant effect was seen with the APEX1 polymorphism. Women smokers carrying the XRCC3 241Met allele showed a significantly decreased risk for lung cancer (OR 0.3, CI 0.2-0.7). The NBS1 185Gln allele was significantly associated with an increased risk for lung cancer among non-smoking women (OR 2.2, CI 1.0-4.8) and low-dose smoking women (OR 4.8, CI 1.5-15.7). The protective effect of the variant XRCC3 241Met allele was strengthened when combined with the low-risk Glu185 allele of the NBS1 gene. Smokers (OR 0.38, CI 0.16-0.90) and women (OR 0.42, CI 0.21-0.85) with at least three low-risk alleles in these two HR genes showed a significantly decreased risk for lung cancer. Thus, in spite of a relatively small study population, this study, including a comparatively large number of never-smokers and women, presents several novel aspects on genetic susceptibility to lung cancer. Our results show that the genetic variation in XRCC1, XRCC3 and NBS1 influence lung cancer susceptibility among women, and that combinations of risk alleles in the two HR genes can enhance the effects.

Abstract
Lung cancer is a major cause of cancer-related death in the developed countries and the overall survival rate has still an extremely poor. Although cigarette smoking is the main cause of lung cancer, not all smokers develop lung cancer, and a fraction of lifelong non-smokers will die from lung cancer. Genetic host factors have recently been implicated to account for some of the observed differences in lung cancer susceptibility. Various DNA alterations can be caused by exposure to environmental and endogenous carcinogens. Most of these alterations, if not repaired, may result in genetic instability, mutagenesis and cell death. DNA repair mechanisms are important for maintaining DNA integrity and preventing carcinogenesis. Recent genetic association studies on lung cancer risk have focused on identifying effects of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in candidate genes, among which DNA repair genes are increasingly studied. Genetic variations in DNA repair genes are thought to modulate DNA repair capacity and are suggested to be related to lung cancer risk. We identified a sufficient number of epidemiologic studies on lung cancer to conduct a meta-analysis for genetic polymorphisms in nucleotide base repair (BER) pathway, focusing on 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase 1, X-ray cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) and apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1. The 399Gln/Gln genotype of the XRCC1 Arg399Gln polymorphism was associated with an increased risk of lung cancer among Asians (OR=1.34, 95% CI=1.16-1.54) but not among Caucasians. Little evidence of associations has been found between other BER genes and lung cancer risk. Considering the data available, it can be conjectured that if there is any risk association between single SNP and lung cancer, this risk increase/decrease will probably be minimal. Advances in identification of new polymorphisms and in high-throughput genotyping techniques will facilitate analysis of multiple genes in multiple DNA repair pathways. Therefore, it is likely that the defining feature of future epidemiologic studies will be the simultaneous analysis of large samples of cases and controls.
