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 Homologous recombination repair (HRR) accurately repairs the DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) and is crucial for genome stability. Genetic polymorphisms in crucial HRR pathway genes might affect genome stability and promote tumorigenesis. Up to our knowledge, the present study is the first to investigate the impact of HRR gene polymorphisms on BC development in South Indian women. The present population-based case-control study investigated the association of polymorphisms in three key HRR genes (XRCC2-Arg188His, XRCC3-Thr241Met and RAD51-G135C) with BC risk. MATERIALS AND METHODS Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method was used for genotyping the HRR variants in 491 BC cases and 493 healthy women. RESULTS We observed that the XRCC3 Met allele was significantly associated with BC risk [OR:1.27 (95% CI: 1.02-1.60); p = 0.035]. In addition, the homozygous mutant (C/C) genotype of RAD51 G135C variant conferred 2.19 fold elevated risk of BC [OR: 2.19 (95% CI: 1.06-4.54); p = 0.034]. Stratified analysis of HRR variants and BC clinicopathological features revealed that the XRCC3-Thr241Met and RAD51-G135C variants are associated with BC progression. Combined SNP analysis revealed that the individuals with RAD51-C/C, XRCC2-Arg/Arg, and XRCC3-Thr/Thr genotype combination have three-fold increased BC risk. CONCLUSION The present study imparts additional evidence that genetic variants in crucial HRR pathway genes might play a pivotal role in modulating BC risk in South Indian women.

Abstract
Homologous recombination (HR) is one of the important mechanisms in repairing double-strand breaks to maintain genomic integrity and DNA stability from the cytotoxic effects and mutations. Various studies have reported that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the HR-associated genes may have a significant association with ovarian cancer (OCa) risk but the results were inconclusive. In the present study, five polymorphisms of HR-associated genes (RAD51, XRCC2 and XRCC3) were genotyped by allelic discrimination assay in 200 OCa cases and 200 healthy individuals. The association with OCa risk was evaluated by unconditional logistic regression analyses. The results revealed that the mutant allele in both rs1801320 (CC) and rs1801321 (TT) of RAD51 gene was associated with increased risk of OCa (odds ratio [OR] 3.79, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.21-11.78, p = 0.014 and OR 1.61, 95% CI 1.06-2.45, p = 0.025, respectively). Moreover, a significant association of TT allele (OR 4.68, 95% CI 1.27-17.15, p = 0.011) of rs3218536 of XRCC2 gene with OCa was observed. Stratified analysis results showed that patients with early menarche and stages 3 and 4 were found to be associated with rs1801321 of RAD51 gene and rs1799794 of XRCC3 gene. In silico analysis predicted that the two missense SNPs (rs3218536 and rs1799794) were found to have an impact on the protein structure, stability and function. The present study suggested that RAD51 and XRCC2 gene polymorphisms might have an impact on the OCa risk in the South Indian population. However, studies with a larger sample and on different populations are needed to support the conclusions.

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
Aim The X-ray repair cross-complementing (XRCC) gene polymorphisms influence esophageal carcinogenesis by altering the DNA repair capacity. The present study was designed to screen five single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of XRCC genes for their susceptibility to esophageal cancer (EC) risk. There is no previous report on these polymorphisms for EC from India, where EC frequency is high. Methods The present study included 497 subjects (213 EC patients and 284 healthy controls). The polymorphisms were screened using the PCR-RFLP method and allele and genotype distribution were compared using chi-square test. Association analysis was done by haplotype analysis and linkage disequilibrium (LD) analysis. Gene–gene interactions were identified using multifactor dimensionality reduction (MDR). The risk was calculated using binary logistic regression. Results For XRCC1 p.Arg399Gln, a decreased risk for EC was associated with the AA genotype [OR (95% CI): 0.53 (0.3–0.95), p=0.03] even after adjusting for various covariates [OR (95% CI): 0.49 (0.26–0.9), p=0.024] and with the recessive model [OR (95% CI): 0.49 (0.27–0.8), p=0.016]. The GA genotype of p.Arg280His was associated with an increased risk for EC [OR (95% CI): 1.7 (1.0–2.82), p= 0.045] after adjustments. The two XRCC1 polymorphisms, p.Arg399Gln and p.Arg194Trp were in slight LD among EC patients (D̍́=0.845, r2=0.042). XRCC2 and XRCC3 polymorphisms were not associated with EC risk. Conclusion XRCC1 p.Arg399Gln plays a protective role in the development of the EC. The study is the first report from India, providing baseline data about genetic polymorphisms in DNA repair genes XRCC1, XRCC2 and XRCC3 modulating overall EC risk.

Abstract
A case-control study was conducted in which we evaluated the association between genetic variability of DNA repair proteins belonging to the Rad51 family and breast cancer (BrC) risk. In the study, 132 female BrC cases and 189 healthy control females were genotyped for a total of 14 common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within Rad51 and Xrcc3. Moreover, our previously reported Rad51C genetic data were involved to explore the nonlinear interactions among SNPs within the three genes and effect of such interactions on BrC risk. The rare rs5030789 genotype (-4601AA) in Rad51 was found to significantly decrease the BrC risk (OR = 0.5, 95% CI: 0.3-1.0, p<0.05). An interaction between this SNP, rs2619679 and rs2928140 (both in Rad51), was found to result in a two three-locus genotypes -4719AA/-4601AA/2972CG and -4719AT/-4601GA/2972CC, both of which were found to increase the risk of BrC (OR = 8.4, 95% CI: 1.8-38.6, p<0.0001), instead. Furthermore, rare Rad51 rs1801320 (135CC) and heterozygous Xrcc3 rs3212057 (10343GA) genotypes were found to respectively increase (OR = 10.6, 95% CI: 1.9-198, p<0.02) and decrease (OR = 0.0, 95% CI: 0.0-NA, p<0.05) the risk of BrC. Associations between these SNPs and BrC risk were further supported by outcomes of employed machine learning analyses. In Xrcc3, the 4541A/9685A haplotype was found to be significantly associated with reduced BrC risk (OR = 0.5; 95% CI: 0.3-0.9; p<0.05). Concluding, our study indicates a complex role of SNPs within Rad51 (especially rs5030789) and Xrcc3 in BrC, although their significance with respect to the disease needs to be further clarified.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The X-ray repair cross-complementing group 3 (XRCC3) is an efficient component of homologous recombination and is required for the preservation of chromosomal integrity in mammalian cells. The association between Thr241Met single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in this gene and susceptibility to breast cancer has been assessed in several studies. Yet, reports are controversial. The present meta-analysis has been designed to identify whether this SNP is associated with susceptibility to breast cancer. METHODS We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis for retrieving the case-control studies on the associations between T241 M SNP and the risk of breast cancer. Crude odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to verify the association in dominant, recessive, and homozygote inheritance models. RESULTS We included 55 studies containing 30,966 sporadic breast cancer cases, 1174 familial breast cancer cases and 32,890 controls in the meta-analysis. In crude analyses, no association was detected between the mentioned SNP and breast cancer risk in recessive, homozygote or dominant models. However, ethnic based analysis showed that in sporadic breast cancer, the SNP was associated with breast cancer risk in Arab populations in homozygous (OR (95% CI) = 3.649 (2.029-6.563), p = 0.0001) and recessive models (OR (95% CI) = 4.092 (1.806-9.271), p = 0.001). The association was significant in Asian population in dominant model (OR (95% CI) = 1.296, p = 0.029). However, the associations was significant in familial breast cancer in mixed ethnic-based subgroup in homozygote and recessive models (OR (95% CI) = 0.451 (0.309-0.659), p = 0.0001, OR (95% CI) = 0.462 (0.298-0.716), p = 0.001 respectively). CONCLUSIONS Taken together, our results in a large sample of both sporadic and familial cases of breast cancer showed insignificant role of Thr241Met in the pathogenesis of this type of malignancy. Such results were more conclusive in sporadic cases. In familial cases, future studies are needed to verify our results.

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.

Abstract
Background There has recently been a strong interest in the inter-individual variation in normal tissue and tumor response to radiotherapy (RT), because tissue radiosensitivity seems to be under genetic control. Evidence is accumulating on the role of polymorphic genetic variants, such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that could influence normal tissue response after radiation. The most studied SNPs include those in genes involved in DNA repair (single- and double-strand breaks, and base excision) and those active in the response to oxidative stress. Case report We present the case report of a 60-year-old woman with early breast cancer who underwent adjuvant hormone therapy and conventional radiotherapy, and subsequently developed unacceptable cosmetic toxicities of the irradiated breast requiring a genetic test of genes involved in DNA repair mechanisms. The patient was found to be heterozygous for G28152A (T/C) and C18067T (A/G) mutations in X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) and 3 (XRCC3), respectively, homozygous for A313G (G/G) mutation in glutathione S transferase Pi 1 (GSTP1), and wild-type for A4541G (A/A) in XRCC3 and G135C (G/G) in RAD51 recombinase. Conclusion The role of SNPs should be taken into account when a severe phenomenon appears in normal tissues after radiation treatment, because understanding the molecular basis of individual radiosensitivity may be useful for identifying moderately or extremely radiosensitive patients who may need tailored therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Background Cyclin D1 (CCND1) G870A polymorphism may be associated with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) risk, but the results of previous studies were inconsistent. Available evidence was meta-analyzed to assess their potential association. Methods Databases PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Chinese Biomedical Literature database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Google Scholar were systematically searched. Meta-analyses were performed to investigate the association of G870A polymorphism with HCC risk by calculating odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) from the data of relevant case–control studies. Results Results of this meta-analysis of six case–control studies involving 1,030 cases and 1,683 controls indicate that G870A polymorphism was not associated with HCC risk in any of the five genetic models tested (recessive model: AA vs GG + AG: OR =1.38, 95% CI =0.95–2.00, P=0.09; dominant model: AG + AA vs GG: OR =1.38, 95% CI =0.87–2.20, P=0.17; homozygous model: AA vs GG: OR =1.60, 95% CI =0.87–2.94, P=0.13; heterozygous model: AG vs GG: OR =1.24, 95% CI =0.86–1.79, P=0.25; allelic model: A vs G: OR =1.30, 95% CI =0.95–1.80, P=0.10). Subgroup analyses according to ethnicity showing marginally significant association between this single nucleotide polymorphism and HCC risk indicate that G870A may be significantly associated with HCC risk in Caucasian populations (recessive model: AA vs GG + AG: OR =2.34, 95% CI =1.60–3.42, P<0.0001; dominant model: AG + AA vs GG: OR =2.44, 95% CI =1.19–4.97, P=0.01; homozygous model: AA vs GG: OR =3.42, 95% CI =1.80–6.50, P=0.0002; allelic model: A vs G: OR =2.06, 95% CI =1.31–3.24, P=0.002), but not in Asian populations. Conclusion Available evidence suggests that no significant association between G870A polymorphism and HCC risk was found in either total populations or Asian populations. However, significant association was found in Caucasian populations. These results should be verified and extended in further detailed and well-designed studies involving larger, multiethnic samples.

Abstract
The X-ray repair cross-complementing group 3 (XRCC3) protein plays an important role in the repair of DNA double-strand breaks. The relationship between XRCC3 polymorphisms and the risk of radiation-induced adverse effects on normal tissue remains inconclusive. Thus, we performed a meta-analysis to elucidate the association between XRCC3 polymorphisms and radiation-induced adverse effects on normal tissue. All eligible studies up to December 2014 were identified through a search of the PubMed, Embase and Web of Science databases. Seventeen studies involving 656 cases and 2193 controls were ultimately included in this meta-analysis. The pooled odds ratios (ORs) with corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to evaluate the association between XRCC3 polymorphisms and the risk of radiation-induced normal tissue adverse effects. We found that the XRCC3 p.Thr241Met (rs861539) polymorphism was significantly associated with early adverse effects induced by radiotherapy (OR = 1.99, 95%CI: 1.31-3.01, P = 0.001). A positive association lacking statistical significance with late adverse effects was also identified (OR = 1.28, 95%CI: 0.97-1.68, P = 0.08). In addition, the rs861539 polymorphism was significantly correlated with a higher risk of adverse effects induced by head and neck area irradiation (OR = 2.41, 95%CI: 1.49-3.89, p = 0.0003) and breast irradiation (OR = 1.41, 95%CI: 1.02-1.95, p = 0.04), whereas the correlation was not significant for lung irradiation or pelvic irradiation. Furthermore, XRCC3 rs1799794 polymorphism may have a protective effect against late adverse effects induced by radiotherapy (OR = 0.47, 95%CI: 0.26-0.86, P = 0.01). Well-designed large-scale clinical studies are required to further validate our results.
