Polymorphisms in ERCC1 and XPF genes and risk of gastric cancer in an eastern Chinese population.

BACKGROUND: Inherited functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in DNA repair genes may alter DNA repair capacity and thus contribute to cancer risk. METHODS: Three ERCC1 functional SNPs (rs2298881C>A, rs3212986C>A and rs11615G>A) and two XPF/ERCC4 functional SNPs (rs2276466C>G a...
