ASSOCIATION OF DNA REPAIR GENE POLYMORPHISM WITH CHROMOSOMAL ABERRATIONS IN THE BLOOD LYMPHOCYTES OF PATIENTS WITH LUNG CANCER
Abstract
Analysis of association, between several DNA repair gene polymorphisms and the level of chromosomal aberrations (CAs) in lymphocytes was performed in two groups: a group of 215 patients with lung cancer and a control group of 152 donors. In the group patient with lung cancer the level of CAs shows a significant increase in the carrier of genotypes: XPD TG and XPD GG vs XPD TT. In the control group level of CAs shows a significant increase in the carrier of genotype ADPRT ТС vs ТТ.
