Identification and Characterization of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) Associated with Genetic Predisposition to Develop Therapy-Related Acute…
2004
Introduction: Polymorphisms in certain genes involved on chemo/radio therapy response, as genes involved on DNA synthesis and repair, oxidative stress and drug detoxification, could be related to increased risk of develop t-AML. Objectives: To identified SNPs on genes that could be involved on putative risk of developing t-AML. To analyse the influence of relevant polymorphisms between groups of patients depending of the intensity and the type of treatment received. Material and Methods: Twelve polymorphisms located on genes from drug detoxification pathways (NOQ1, GSTP1), DNA repair (XPC[3], XRCC1[2], NBS1, ERCC5 and XRCC3) and DNA synthesis (MTHFR[2]) were studied. The analysis was carrie…
Polymorphisms in DNA repair genes modulate survival in cisplatin/gemcitabine-treated non-small-cell lung cancer patients.
2006
Abstract Background: Impaired DNA repair capacity may favorably affect survival in cisplatin/gemcitabine-treated non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. We investigated the association of survival with genetic polymorphisms in X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 and group 3 (XRCC3), xeroderma pigmentosum group D (XPD), excision repair cross-complementing group 1, ligase IV, ribonucleotide reductase, TP53, cyclooxygenase-2, interleukin-6, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ, epidermal growth factor, methylene-tetra-hydrofolate reductase and methionine synthase. Patients and methods: One hundred and thirty-five stage IV or IIIB (with malignant pleural effusion) NSCLC patien…
