Abstract
Background: DNA repair genes are among the low-penetrance genes implicated in breast cancer. However variants of DNA repair genes may alter their protein function thus leading to carcinogenesis. Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in India. The aim of the present study was to identify association, if any, of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP's) in four genes involved in DNA repair pathways including, RAD51 rs1801320, XRCC1 rs25487, XRCC2 rs3218536, and XRCC3 rs861539 with the risk of breast cancer. Materials and Methods: In this case-control study 611 female subjects (311 breast cancer patients and 300 healthy controls) were screened for four SNPs using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism analyses. Multifactor dimensionality reduction (MDR) analysis was performed to estimate the gene-gene interaction. Protein-protein interaction network analysis were studied using the STRING database. Results: The GC genotype (p = 0.018) and the combined GC+CC (p = 0.03) genotypes of RAD51 rs1801320 were significantly associated with reduced risk of breast cancer. The CT genotype (p = 0.0001), the combined CT+TT genotypes (p = 0.0002), and the T allele (p = 0.0019) of XRCC3 rs861539 polymorphism were associated with reduced risk of the breast cancer. No association of XRCC1 rs25487 and XRCC2 rs3218536 polymorphisms with breast cancer was observed. MDR analysis indicated a positive interaction between XRCC3 and XRCC2. String network analysis showed that the RAD51, XRCC1, XRCC2, and XRCC3 proteins are in strong interaction with each other and other breast cancer-related proteins such as BRCA2. Conclusion: RAD51 rs1801320 and XRCC3 rs861539 polymorphisms were associated with reduced risk of breast cancer. There is evidence of positive interactions among XRCC1, XRCC2, XRCC3, and RAD51.

Abstract
Background Genetic variability in DNA double-strand break repair genes such as RAD51 gene and its paralogs XRCC2、XRCC3 may contribute to the occurrence and progression of breast cancer. To obtain a complete evaluation of the above association, we performed a meta-analysis of published studies. Methods Electronic databases, including PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library, were comprehensively searched from inception to September 2022. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) checklist was used to assess all included non-randomized studies. Odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated by STATA 16.0 to assess the strength of the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in these genes and breast cancer risk. Subsequently, the heterogeneity between studies, sensitivity, and publication bias were performed. We downloaded data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and used univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression (CPH) models to validate the prognostic value of these related genes in the R software. Results The combined results showed that there was a significant correlation between the G172T polymorphism and the susceptibility to breast cancer in the homozygote model (OR= 1.841, 95% CI=1.06-3.21, P=0.03). Furthermore, ethnic analysis showed that SNP was associated with the risk of breast cancer in Arab populations in homozygous models (OR=3.52, 95% CI=1.13-11.0, P= 0.003). For the XRCC2 R188H polymorphism, no significant association was observed. Regarding polymorphism in XRCC3 T241M, a significantly increased cancer risk was only observed in the allelic genetic model (OR=1.05, 95% CI= 1.00-1.11, P=0.04). Conclusions In conclusion, this meta-analysis suggests that Rad51 G172T polymorphism is likely associated with an increased risk of breast cancer, significantly in the Arab population. The relationship between the XRCC2 R188H polymorphism and breast cancer was not obvious. And T241M in XRCC3 may be associated with breast cancer risk, especially in the Asian population.

Abstract
Purpose The RAD51 family of genes, including RAD51 and the five RAD51-like paralogs (RAD51B, RAD51C, RAD51D, XRCC2, and XRCC3), are known to be crucially associated with DNA damage repair pathway. Increasing evidence indicated that RAD51 family members were implicated in breast cancer tumorigenesis. However, their biological roles and prognostic values in breast cancer have yet to be clarified. Methods In this study, by using the Oncomine and GEPIA databases, we explored the transcriptional levels of RAD51 family members in breast cancer. Besides, the associations between RAD51 family expression and clinical features were evaluated by using the UALCAN database and Kaplan-Meier (KM) Plotter. We also analyzed the mutations of the RAD51 family and differentially altered genes from the cBioPortal database. Results We found that RAD51 mRNA was significantly elevated in breast cancer samples than in normal tissues, while XRCC2 mRNA was downregulated. Besides, a remarkable correlation was detected between the expression of RAD51/RAD51B/XRCC2 genes and the breast cancer stage. Survival analysis utilizing the KM Plotter indicated that high RAD51 and XRCC3 mRNA was associated with a poor prognosis. Conversely, RFS data suggested that high levels of RAD51B/RAD51C/RAD51D/XRCC2 were associated with a favorable prognosis. Moreover, a high genetic variation rate of RAD51C (7%) was detected in breast cancer patients. Conclusion Conclusively, we implied that RAD51 and XRCC3 might be potential targets for precision therapy in breast cancer and the RAD51B/RAD51C/RAD51D/XRCC2 genes have significant values for breast cancer prognosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies on the XRCC3 rs1799794 polymorphism show that this polymorphism is involved in a variety of cancers, but its specific relationships or effects are not consistent. The purpose of this meta-analysis was to investigate the association between rs1799794 polymorphism and susceptibility to cancer. METHODS PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and Scopus were searched for eligible studies through June 11, 2019. All analyses were performed with Stata 14.0. Subgroup analyses were performed by cancer type, ethnicity, source of control, and detection method. A total of 37 studies with 23,537 cases and 30,649 controls were included in this meta-analysis. RESULTS XRCC3 rs1799794 increased cancer risk in the dominant model and heterozygous model (GG + AG vs. AA: odds ratio [OR] = 1.04, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.00-1.08, P = 0.051; AG vs. AA: OR = 1.05, 95% CI = 1.00-1.01, P = 0.015). The existence of rs1799794 increased the risk of breast cancer and thyroid cancer, but reduced the risk of ovarian cancer. In addition, rs1799794 increased the risk of cancer in the Caucasian population. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis confirms that XRCC3 rs1799794 is related to cancer risk, especially increased risk for breast cancer and thyroid cancer and reduced risk for ovarian cancer. However, well-designed large-scale studies are required to further evaluate the results.

Abstract
Breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease at morphologic and molecular levels, which is considered the most commonly occurring cancer in women. RAD51, a DNA-repairing protein, involves homologous recombination and has a vital role in genome stability. Polymorphism of the RAD51 gene, and its overexpression, has been proposed to be associated with the development of breast cancer. Overexpression of RAD51 in many types of human cancer including metastatic breast cancer may signify its potential use as a biomarker. Considering the numerous reports on the role of the 5'-UTR-RAD51 polymorphism in breast cancer, this study aimed to investigate the utility of RAD51 gene expression and its variants G135C and G172T as a possible foretelling factor of breast cancer development. DNA sequencing and immunohistochemistry of RAD51 were conducted on 103 samples from patients diagnosed with sporadic breast cancer and 80 samples from a control group. The results demonstrated that the RAD51 variants, G135C and G172T, were significantly presented in the breast cancer tissue compared with the control group. RAD51 expression was mainly shown in the cytoplasm of malignant cells (56% of cases) and significantly correlated with p53 and G135C, C135C variants. Moreover, the occurrence of the G172T variant was significantly associated with the expression of estrogen receptor. Interestingly, 21/26 (81%) of the triple-negative breast cancer showed G135C and C135C genotypes that were significantly associated with the expression of RAD51 (73%). In conclusion, the G135C and C135C variants together with the cytoplasmic expression of RAD51 may have clinical potential as a prognostic predictor for breast cancer development and aggressiveness.

Abstract
Purpose Polymorphisms of DNA repair genes may contribute to variations in DNA repair capacity and subsequent genetic susceptibility to different cancers. In Egypt, breast cancer is the most common cancer among women, representing 18.9% of the total cancer cases. The present study assesses the correlation between X-ray repair cross-complementing group 3 (XRCC3) polymorphism with breast cancer and treatment response in Egyptian female breast cancer patients. Patients and Methods This pilot case–control study was conducted on 66 female breast cancer patients and 20 apparently healthy females as a control group. Tumor grading, immunohistostaining of hormone (progesterone and estrogen) receptors and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), and RFLP-PCR for XRCC3 (rs861539) polymorphism were performed. All breast cancer patients received a treatment protocol (after surgery) which was either chemotherapy (anthracyclines followed by paclitaxel or anthracyclines + fluorouracil) or radiotherapy, or both. Disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were recorded. Results The number of patients with a heterozygous allele (GA) was significantly higher in cases of tumor size >20 mm. The A allele was correlated with younger age at diagnosis in both chemotherapy and radiotherapy groups. Poor treatment response and higher mortality rates were significantly associated with AA and GA compared with GG alleles (normal allele). In the chemotherapy group, out of eight patients with the A allele, six showed a poor response to treatment containing fluorouracil. Conclusion XRCC3 rs861539 polymorphism could be associated with lower DFS and OS and poor treatment response. So, we recommend carrying out XRCC3 genotyping before starting treatment to choose the most effective treatment strategy according to XRCC3 polymorphism. ![]()

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
The maintenance of genome integrity is essential for any organism survival and for the inheritance of traits to offspring. To the purpose, cells have developed a complex DNA repair system to defend the genetic information against both endogenous and exogenous sources of damage. Accordingly, multiple repair pathways can be aroused from the diverse forms of DNA lesions, which can be effective per se or via crosstalk with others to complete the whole DNA repair process. Deficiencies in DNA healing resulting in faulty repair and/or prolonged DNA damage can lead to genes mutations, chromosome rearrangements, genomic instability, and finally carcinogenesis and/or cancer progression. Although it might seem paradoxical, at the same time such defects in DNA repair pathways may have therapeutic implications for potential clinical practice. Here we provide an overview of the main DNA repair pathways, with special focus on the role played by homologous repair and the RAD51 recombinase protein in the cellular DNA damage response. We next discuss the recombinase structure and function per se and in combination with all its principal mediators and regulators. Finally, we conclude with an analysis of the manifold roles that RAD51 plays in carcinogenesis, cancer progression and anticancer drug resistance, and conclude this work with a survey of the most promising therapeutic strategies aimed at targeting RAD51 in experimental oncology.

Abstract
Background. Notwithstanding that prostate cancer is largely studied all over the world for many decades, its etiology is not known and there is an intensive work to elucidate the cause and molecular markers for the development of this male cancer. Polymorphisms in DNA repairing genes may affect the DNA repairing capacity that in turn contributes to cancer development. This study aims to explore the polymorphisms of homologous recombination (HR) RAD51 gene (rs1801320 and rs1801321) as a possible risk factor for developing prostate cancer. Sequencing of 5'-UTR of RAD51 gene (rs1801320 and rs1801321) was studied in 80 DNA samples of prostate cancer and 50 DNA samples from a control group. Our results revealed a significant correlation between rs1801320 G>C polymorphism and the presence of prostate cancer in the Jordanian population (p = 0.041, X2 = 6.377). On the other hand, the rs1801321 G>T polymorphism was not associated with the presence of prostate cancer in the study population (p = 0.27, X2 = 2.6). In conclusion, our results shed a light on the possible role of RAD51 gene polymorphisms in the development of prostate cancer; however, a larger representative study is needed to elucidate a possible role of RAD51 gene polymorphisms in development and prognosis of prostate cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Breast cancer is the most widespread cancer in women, with a high mortality rate. This study aims to assess the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of LOC643714 (rs12922061) and TOX3 (rs3803662) and breast cancer, as well as the clinical characteristics of tumors. MATERIALS AND METHODS In total, 104 breast cancer patients and 118 healthy controls were recruited to our study. The genotyping was performed by the SNP scan method. General characteristics, the clinical characteristics of tumors and reproductive factors were included in the analysis. Statistical tests included the Student t-test, the Chi-square test (X2) or Fisher's exact test, and unconditional logistic regression analysis. The receiver operating characteristic curves were used to evaluate the predictive role of rs12922061 in breast cancer. RESULTS The LOC643714 polymorphism was a risk factor for breast cancer under a dominant model (TT+TC vs. CC: OR 1.801; 95% CI 1.048, 3.095; statistical power=60%), recessive model (TT vs. TC + CC: OR 4.297; 95% CI 1.164, 15.867; statistical power=64%) and log-additive (TT vs. CC: OR 5.163; 95% CI 1.368, 19.485; statistical power= 73%). Furthermore, the rs12922061 polymorphism was associated with menopause status in patients ( P=0.005). No statistically significant association was found between the rs3803662 polymorphism and breast cancer in patients or healthy controls. CONCLUSIONS Our study found that rs12922061 of LOC643714 was related to breast cancer risk. With a limited sample size and statistical power, further multi-center studies are needed to confirm the influence of the LOC643714 polymorphisms on breast cancer based on larger populations.

Abstract
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) may modify the risk of cancer. They may be then regarded as potential markers of carcinogenesis. The aim of this study was to analyze the frequency of genotypes and alleles of SNPs in DNA repair genes and to investigate the influence this genetic variation exerts on breast cancer in Polish females. The test group comprised 600 females with breast cancer and 600 healthy controls. Genomic DNA was isolated and the SNPs in DNA repair genes were determined by High-Resolution Melter (HRM) technique. Following polymorphisms were analysed: Arg399Gln (rs25487) of the XRCC1, Gly322Asp (rs4987188) of the hMSH2, Lys751Gln (rs13181) of the XPD, Arg188His (rs3218536) of the XRCC2, P871L (rs799917) of the BRCA1 and N372H (rs144848) of the BRCA2 gene. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated for each genotype and allele. Statistically significant correlations were identified between 4 single nucleotide polymorphisms and the breast cancer risk: rs25487 rs4987188 rs13181 and rs799917. The alleles XRCC1-Gln (OR 5.11; 95% CI 5.68-11.64, p < .0001), hMSH2-Asp (OR 4.66; 95% CI 3.90-5.56, p < .0001), XPD-Gln (OR 2.65; 95% CI 2.24-3.14, p < .0001) and BRCA1-L (OR 1.45; 95% CI 1.24-1.71, p < .0001) genes were strongly correlated with this malignancy. No correlation was found between the studied SNPs and tumor grading nor the lymph node status. Further research on larger groups is warranted to determine the influence of above-mentioned genetic variants on breast cancer risk.

Abstract
X-ray repair cross complementary group gene is one of the most studied candidate gene involved in different types of cancers. Studies have shown that X-ray repair cross complementary genes are significantly associated with increased risk of breast cancer in females. Moreover, studies have revealed that X-ray repair cross complementary gene polymorphism significantly varies between and within different ethnic groups globally. The present case–control study was aimed to investigate the association of X-ray repair cross complementary 1A (Arg194Trp) and X-ray repair cross complementary 3 (Thr241Met) polymorphism with the risk of breast cancer in females from northeastern region of India. The present case–control study includes histopathologically confirmed and newly diagnosed 464 cases with breast cancer and 534 apparently healthy neighborhood community controls. Information on sociodemographic factors and putative risk factors were collected from each study participant by conducting face-to-face interviews. Genotyping of X-ray repair cross complementary 1A (Arg194Trp) and X-ray repair cross complementary 3 (Thr241Met) was carried out by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. For statistical analysis, both univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed. We also performed stratified analysis to find out the association of X-ray repair cross complementary genes with the risk of breast cancer stratified based on menstrual status. This study revealed that tryptophan allele (R/W-W/W genotype) in X-ray repair cross complementary 1A (Arg194Trp) gene significantly increased the risk of breast cancer (adjusted odds ratio = 1.44, 95% confidence interval = 1.06-1.97, P < .05 for R/W-W/W genotype). Moreover, it was found that tryptophan allele (W/W genotype) at codon 194 of X-ray repair cross complementary 1A (Arg194Trp) gene significantly increased the risk of breast cancer in premenopausal females (crude odds ratio = 1.66, 95% confidence interval = 1.11-2.46, P < .05 for R/W-W/W genotype). The present study did not reveal any significant association of X-ray repair cross complementary 3 (Thr241Met) polymorphism with the risk of breast cancer. The present study has explored that X-ray repair cross complementary 1A (Arg194Trp) gene polymorphism is significantly associated with the increased risk of breast cancer in premenopausal females from northeastern region of India which may be beneficial for prognostic purposes.
