Abstract
Objective There is much evidence that oxidative stress is involved in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia (PE). A 50 bp insertion/deletion (Ins/Del) functional polymorphism in the promoter region of SOD1 has been reported. Due to a total lack of data, the aim of this study was to investigate the association between the SOD1 (Ins/Del) polymorphism and the risk of PE. Material and Methods The current hospital-based case-control study included a total of 172 preeclamptic and 171 non-preeclamptic pregnancies. Genotyping was performed using the polymerase chain reaction method. Results Statistical analysis revealed that the Del/Del genotype significantly correlated with susceptibility to PE [odds ratio (OR): 6.53, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.43-29.7, p=0.015]. Since maternal body mass index, family history of PE in first degree relatives, and educational levels were statistically associated with the susceptibility to PE, further analyses were carried out in order to estimate the adjusted ORs. After adjustment for aforementioned variables, the Del/Del genotype increased the risk of PE (OR: 5.98, 95% CI: 1.21-29.5, p=0.028). Conclusion The 50 bp Ins/Del in promoter region of the SOD1 gene could be an intriguing susceptibility factor for developing preeclampsia in Iranian Caucasians.

Abstract
X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1), a coordinator protein of the DNA repair complex, is thought to be involved in cancer progression. This case-control study aimed to investigate the association of two biallelic single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs; Arg399Gln, Arg194Trp) of the XRCC1 gene with its tissue expression level and breast cancer (BC) risk in Egyptian women. This study included 100 BC female patients (case group 1) and 100 healthy females (control group 2). The XRCC1 tissue expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry (IHC). Genotyping of the two XRCC1 SNPs (Arg399Gln, Arg194Trp) using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was also conducted. The XRCC1 expression level was significantly lower in cancerous tissues than adjacent non-cancerous tissues (p < .001). The XRCC1 399Gln/Gln genotype, 399Gln allele, the dominant, and recessive models were significantly associated with lower XRCC1 expression in breast cancerous tissues and increased risk for BC (3.390-, 1.965-, 2.241-, and 2.429-folds, respectively). The XRCC1 399Gln/Gln genotype was associated with lower incidence of advanced tumor grade (OR: 0.06; 95%CI: 0.01-0.74; p = .028). Conversely, the XRCC1 Arg194Trp polymorphism did not show any significant association with either XRCC1 expression in breast cancer tissues or BC risk in all genetic models. The XRCC1 haplotypes, 399Gln/194Arg and 399Gln/194Trp, were associated with 1.800- and 1.675-folds risk for BC, respectively. The XRCC1 gene polymorphism (Arg399Gln) is associated with reduced XRCC1 tissue expression and enhanced BC risk with a well-differentiated nature in Egyptian women. Moreover, XRCC1 haplotypes, 399Gln/194Arg and 399Gln/194Trp, were associated with increased BC risk.

Abstract
This review gives a summary of the important genetic polymorphisms in breast cancer with a focus on people in Iran. Several single nucleotide polymorphisms were considered as breast cancer susceptibility polymorphisms within genes (STK15, ERRs, ESR1, p53, SEP15, AURKA, SHBG, SRC, FAS, VEGF, XRCC1, GST, NFκB1, XPC, XRCC3, sirtuin-3, NKG2D). Cytosine-adenine repeat (IGF-I), rs3877899, G-2548A, GGC (eRF3a/GSPT1), IVS2nt-124A/G have shown an increased risk of breast cancers and a decreased risk has been observed in 4G/5G (PAI-1), rs6505162, tri-nucleotide (GCG TGFBR1). We observed that the signaling pathways and antioxidant related genes are the main molecular processes associated with breast cancer progression. Further studies on types of polymorphisms in breast cancer could validate the prognostic value of biomarkers.

Abstract
Background: The relationship between glutathione S-transferase M1 (GSTM1) and T1 (GSTT1) null genotypes (homozygotes for the null alleles) and the susceptibility to age-related macular degeneration (ARMD) have been reported and revealed inconsistent results. Therefore, the current meta-analysis was carried out. Methods: Eligible published articles (before December 2020) were found by searching 8 databases. The data was extracted from articles. The heterogeneity across studies was estimated using Q and I 2 statistics and the odds ratios (ORs) and its 95 % confidence intervals (95 % CI) were estimated. Results: In total, 6 independent studies including 1089 participants (634 controls and 455 patients) were used in the current study. There was no heterogeneity between studies for both polymorphisms. Statistical analysis showed that the null genotypes of the GSTM1 (OR = 1.18, 95 % CI: 0.91 - 1.53, p = 0.191) and GSTT1 (OR = 0.84, 95 % CI: 0.60 - 1.18, p = 0.328) loci were not correlated with the susceptibility to ARMD. Conclusion: The GSTT1 and GSTM1 genetic polymorphisms did not associated with the risk of ARMD in Caucasian populations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Genetic polymorphisms in DNA repair genes, XRCC1 (Arg399Gln) and XRCC3 (Thr241Met), may affect their DNA repair capacity leading to individual variation in breast cancer susceptibility among Bangladeshi females. METHODS The case-control study comprised 121 breast cancer patients and 133 healthy controls. Genomic DNA isolated from peripheral blood was genotyped for target SNPs using PCR-RFLP method. RESULTS For XRCC1, heterozygous Arg/Gln and homozygous Gln/Gln genotypes showed 1.78-fold (95% CI 1.0084 to 3.1442, p = 0.0467) and 2.41-fold (95% CI 1.0354 to 5.5914, p = 0.0413) increased risk of breast cancer, respectively, when compared with Arg/Arg genotype. The presence of any XRCC1 Gln showed association with 1.93-fold increased risk. The variant Gln allele was associated with increased risk of breast cancer (95% CI 1.1885 to 2.6805, p = 0.0052). For XRCC3, Thr/Met heterozygous and combined Thr/Met + Met/Met genotypes were associated with 1.85-fold (95% CI 1.0815 to 3.1834, p = 0.0248) and 1.89-fold (95% CI 1.1199 to 3.1908, p = 0.0171) higher risk, respectively, compared to Thr/Thr genotypes. The variant Met allele showed significant association with increased breast cancer susceptibility. Among cases genotype frequencies were significantly different in patients with age 55 or above, and with menopause and diabetes. CONCLUSION XRCC1 (Arg399Gln) and XRCC3 (Thr241Met) polymorphisms may be associated with increased breast cancer risk in Bangladeshi females.

Abstract
AIM: Preeclampsia (PE) is a major cause of maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality. There is a genetic component in the development of PE with estimated heritability around 0.47. Several studies have investigated the association between maternal ABO blood groups (OMIM 110300) and risk of PE, with contradictory results have emerged. Considering that there is no study in this filed from Iranian population, the present case-control study was carried out at Shiraz (south-west Iran). MATERIAL AND METHODS: In this study 331 women; 121 pregnant with PE and 210 normotensive pregnant women were included. Using blood group O (for ABO blood groups) or Rh+ (for Rh blood groups) as a reference, odds ratios (ORs) and its 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) of PE risk were estimated from logistic regression analysis. RESULTS: Although the A (OR = 0.67, 95% CI = 0.39-1.17, P = 0.165), B (OR = 0.86, 95% CI = 0.48-1.53, P = 0.615) and AB (OR = 1.14, 95% CI = 0.37-3.45, P = 0.812) phenotypes showed lower risks compared with the O blood group, statistical analysis indicated that there was no significant association between ABO phenotypes and risk of PE. The frequency of Rh- phenotype was higher among PE patients compared with the control group. However, the association was not significant (OR = 1.79, 95% CI = 0.69-4.65, P = 0.229). Adjusted ORs for age of participants and parity did not change the above-mentioned associations. CONCLUSION: Our present findings indicate that there is no association between ABO and Rh blood groups and risk of PE in Iranian population.

Abstract
Objective: Lung cancer is still one of the most frequently diagnosed cancers all over the world, especially in developing countries. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between two well-characterized non-synonymous polymorphisms (Arg194Trp and Arg399Gln) in X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 ( XRCC1) gene and the risk of lung carcinoma in the Han population. Methods: This study was hospital-based in design and included 159 participants (63 patients with lung carcinoma and 96 cancer-free controls) of Chinese Han descent. Genomic DNA from blood samples was extracted for PCR studies, followed by direct sequencing to determine the variants of the XRCC1 gene. Results: Carriers with Arg194–Arg399 haplotype of XRCC1 gene conferred a 189.3% increased risk compared to the non-carriers (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.195–2.998; P = 0.006). And single-locus analysis (both allele and genotype distributions of polymorphism Arg194Trp and Arg399Gln) identified neither association with cancer risk nor with clinico-pathological parameters of lung carcinoma in the Han population. Conclusions: Arg194–Arg399 haplotype of XRCC1 gene might increase lung cancer susceptibility and serve as a risk factor for lung cancer in the Han population.

Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) is the most common cancer among women worldwide. The aetiology and carcinogenesis of BC are not clearly defined, although genetic, hormonal, lifestyle and environmental risk factors have been established. The most common treatment for BC includes breast-conserving surgery followed by a standard radiotherapy (RT) regimen. However, radiation hypersensitivity and the occurrence of RT-induced toxicity in normal tissue may affect patients’ treatment. The role of DNA repair in cancer has been extensively investigated, and an impaired DNA damage response may increase the risk of BC and individual radiosensitivity. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in DNA repair genes may alter protein function and modulate DNA repair efficiency, influencing the development of various cancers, including BC. SNPs in DNA repair genes have also been studied as potential predictive factors for the risk of RT-induced side effects. Here, we review the literature on the association between SNPs in base excision repair (BER) genes and BC risk. We focused on X-ray repair cross complementing group 1 (XRCC1), which plays a key role in BER, and on 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase 1, apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1, which encode three important BER enzymes that interact with XRCC1. Although no association between SNPs and radiation toxicity has been validated thus far, we also report published studies on XRCC1 SNPs and variants in other BER genes and RT-induced side effects in BC patients, emphasising that large well-designed studies are needed to determine the genetic components of individual radiosensitivity.

Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) refers to about 15–20 % of all breast cancer cases. It is characterized by worse clinical outcome, poor prognosis, and absence of prognostic indicators. Several polymorphisms in the nucleotide excision repair (NER) and base excision repair (BER) gene have been extensively studied in association with various human cancers. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of the hOGG1-Ser326Cys (rs13181), XRCC1-Arg194Trp (rs1799782), and ERCC2-Lys751Gln (rs13181) gene polymorphisms with clinical parameters and the risk for development of triple-negative breast cancer. Our research included 70 patients with TNBC and 70 healthy controls. Gene polymorphisms were genotyped by the PCR-RFLP (restriction fragment length polymorphism) method. The genotype distributions were contrasted by the chi-square test, and the significance of the polymorphism was assessed by multiple logistic regression producing odds ratios (ORs) and 95 % confidence intervals (CIs). In the present work, a relationship was identified between ERCC2-Lys751Gln polymorphism and the incidence of triple-negative breast cancer. An association was observed between triple-negative breast carcinoma occurrence and the presence of Gln/Gln genotype (OR = 5.71 (2.12–5.43), p = 0.0007). A tendency for an increased risk of TNBC was detected with the occurrence of 751Gln allele of ERCC2 polymorphism. No significant associations between Ser326Cys and Arg194Trp genotype and TNBC were observed. We suggest that the Lys751Gln polymorphism of the ERCC2 gene may be risk factors for triple-negative breast cancer development in Polish women.

Abstract
Radiotherapy is an important weapon in the treatment of breast cancer, but normal tissue injury after radiotherapy can be a threat for patients. Genetic markers conferring the ability to identify hyper-sensitive patients at risk of normal tissue injury in advance would considerably improve therapy. Association studies on genetic variation and occurrence of normal tissue injury can help us identify such markers, but previous studies on the association between XRCC1 R399Q polymorphism and risk of normal tissue injury after radiotherapy in breast cancer patients report conflicting findings. We performed a meta-analysis to comprehensively evaluate the association between XRCC1 R399Q polymorphism and risk of normal tissue injury after radiotherapy in breast cancer patients. The pooled odds ratios (ORs) with their 95% confidence interval (95% CIs) were calculated to assess the strength of the association. Fourteen case-control studies with a total of 2,448 breast cancer cases were finally included into the meta-analysis. Overall, XRCC1 R399Q polymorphism was significantly associated with increased risk of normal tissue injury after radiotherapy under all three models (for QQ versus RR: fixed-effects OR = 1.06, 95% CI 1.00-1.13, P = 0.050; for RQ versus RR: fixed-effects OR = 1.05, 95% CI 1.00-1.10, P = 0.047; for QQ/RQ versus RR: fixed-effects OR = 1.26, 95% CI 1.01-1.58, P = 0.041). The meta-analysis suggests that XRCC1 R399Q polymorphism was significantly associated with increased risk of normal tissue injury after radiotherapy in breast cancer patients, and XRCC1 R399Q polymorphism is a genetic marker of normal tissue injury after radiotherapy in breast cancer patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The XRCC1 gene encoding the X-ray cross-complementing group 1 protein (XRCC1) is involved in the base excision repair (BER) pathway. METHODS The aim of this study was to investigate an association of the Arg194Trp and Arg399Gln polymorphisms of the XRCC1 gene with a risk of breast cancer occurrence and the response to adjuvant treatment among Polish women. Overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) were investigated in groups of patients with breast cancer treated with (1) all types of adjuvant therapy, (2) concomitant radiotherapy and chemotherapy, (3) chemotherapy alone, or (4) radiotherapy alone. Polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) was used to evaluate the genotype distribution of the XRCC1 gene among 185 patients with breast cancer and 205 female controls. RESULTS We showed a higher risk of breast cancer occurrence for the Trp allele and the Arg194Trp genotype of the XRCC1 gene. However there was no significant difference in distribution of the Arg399Gln genotype of XRCC1 between patients and the control group. In the patient subgroup treated with adjuvant therapy, Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed a significantly higher OS as well as DFS for carriers of the Gln399Gln genotype when compared with carriers of the Arg399Gln and Arg399Arg genotypes. The Gln399Gln genotype was associated with a significantly higher DFS in the subgroup of patients treated with chemotherapy alone or with concomitant radiotherapy and chemotherapy. CONCLUSION We suggest that the polymorphism of the XRCC1 gene may be considered a predictive factor associated with the risk of occurrence and the survival outcome in breast cancer among Polish women.

Abstract
PURPOSE Although the exact genes involved in preeclampsia (PE) are still not fully discovered, an important role for oxidative stress in its pathogenesis is accepted. XRCC1 (MIM: 194360) and XRCC7 (MIM: 600899) play a crucial role in the DNA repair pathways. Functional polymorphisms in XRCC1 (Arg194Trp and Arg399Gln) and XRCC7 (G6721T) may be risk factors for PE. In the present study, the association between the genetic polymorphisms of XRCC1 and XRCC7 and risk of PE is investigated. METHODS The present case-control study was performed on 151 preeclapmtic patients, and a total of 344 normal pregnant women, as a control group. Control women had no history of pregnancies with PE. RESULTS Neither polymorphism of Arg194Trp XRCC1 nor polymorphism of G6721T XRCC7 associated with the risk of PE. The Gln/Gln genotype of Arg399Gln XRCC1 polymorphism increased the risk of PE (OR=2.39, 95 % CI: 1.38-4.14, P=0.002). Statistical analysis revealed that the haplotype "194Arg-399Gln" showed higher frequency among PE patients compared to the controls (OR=1.65, 95% CI: 1.23-2.19, P=0.001). CONCLUSIONS The present results suggest that the 399Gln allele of the XRCC1 is significant risk factor for PE development.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to examine the relationship between XRCC1, p53 and MDR1 protein, along with polymorphisms of their genes and their prognostic values in breast cancer. The following clinical and pathological parameters were evaluated: histopathological type of tumor, grade, stage, Her2/neu expression, ER, PR positivity and involvement of regional lymph nodes. MATERIAL/METHODS Expression of proteins was determined in 39 samples of breast cancer by immunohistochemistry. Nucleotide polymorphisms were analyzed by PCR-RFLP. For statistical analysis, chi-square test (Yates), Fisher's exact test, and correlation test were used to analyze the data. RESULTS The highest protein expression was immunohistochemically found in MDR1 protein, with 54% of samples testing positive. In addition, the evaluation of MDR1 expression revealed higher positive immunoreactivity in lobular (LIC) and other types of tumor in comparison to ductal (DIC) type. The expression of p53 and XRCC1 protein was equal, but lower compared to MDR1, both testing positive in 36% of all tissue samples. Comparison of XRCC1 protein and histopathological type of tumor revealed that DIC and LIC types were mostly XRCC1-negative, while other types, papillary and mucinous were more likely to be XRCC1-positive. Interestingly, when evaluating LIC samples separately, a negative correlation between the Her2/neu and expression of XRCC1 was detected. Apparently, all Her2/neu-positive samples were XRCC1-negative (6/86%). The correlation test indicated a negative correlation between Her2/neu-positive samples and XRCC1-negative specimens (r = 1, p < 0.05). Statistical analysis did not reveal a correlation of p53 expression with clinical and pathological parameters. Similarly, no statistically significant difference was found between the tested polymorphisms and protein expression. CONCLUSIONS We did not find statistically significant correlation between tested polymorphisms and their protein expression.

Abstract
Although tobacco and alcohol consumption are the major risk factors of head and neck cancer (HNC), genetic variations of genes involved in several biological pathways, such as DNA repair genes, may affect an individual's susceptibility to HNC. However, few studies have investigated the associations between polymorphisms in DNA repair genes and HNC risk in the Chinese population. Thus, we genotyped five common, non-synonymous single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) [APEX1 (Asp148Glu), XRCC1 (Arg399Gln), ADPRT (Val762Ala), XPD (Lys751Gln) and XPG (His1104Asp)] in a hospital-based, case-control study of 397 HNC cases and 900 cancer-free controls in China. The results showed that none of the five SNPs in the DNA repair pathway was significantly associated with HNC risk, suggesting that these polymorphisms may not play a major role in HNC susceptibility in this Chinese population.

Abstract
The main aim of the present study was to investigate the association between several genetic polymorphisms (in glutathione S-transferase members and DNA repair genes) and clinical response to chemotherapy in locally advanced breast cancer. A sequential series of 101 patients were prospectively included in this study. Clinical assessment of treatment was accomplished by comparing initial tumor size with preoperative tumor size using revised RECIST guideline (version 1.1). Clinical response was regarded as a response or no response. There was no difference between non-responders and responders for the prevalence of genotypes of the study polymorphisms.

Abstract
Expression pattern analysis has been revealed that glutathione S-transferase omega 2 (GSTO2, a member of class omega) is ubiquitously expressed. Over expression of GSTO2 induced apoptosis. The gene encoding GSTO2 was localized to human chromosome 10q24.3, a region that may harbor gene(s) involved in the developing of colorectal cancer. To investigate the association between GSTO2 N142D genetic polymorphism and susceptibility to colorectal cancer the present study was done. We studied 63 (26 females, 37 males) colorectal cancer patients and 126 (52 females, 74 males) healthy individuals. The control subjects were frequency matched for age and gender with the colorectal cancer group. The genotypes were performed using RFLP-PCR method. The ND and DD genotypes were not associated with risk of colorectal cancer, in comparison with the NN genotype. Family history for cancer in the first degree of relatives significantly differed between cases and controls (P = 0.012). The profiles of GSTO2 genotypes and family history in control and cancerous groups were compared to each other. Subjects with NN genotype and positive family history significantly were at high risk to develop colorectal cancer in comparison with subjects with DD or ND genotypes and negative family history (P = 0.003). Present findings indicating that GSTO2 NN genotype increase the risk of colorectal cancer in persons with positive family history for cancer in the first degree relatives.
