RAD51 and XRCC3 Polymorphisms Are Associated with Increased Risk of Prostate Cancer

RAD51 and XRCC3 Polymorphisms Are Associated with Increased Risk of Prostate Cancer Hindawi Journal of Oncology Volume 2019, Article ID 2976373, 8 pages https://doi.org/10.1155/2019/2976373 Research Article RAD51 and XRCC3 Polymorphisms Are Associated with Increased Risk of Prostate Cancer 1 1 1 1 Maria Nowacka-Zawisza , Agata Raszkiewicz, Tomasz Kwasiborski, Ewa Forma, 1 2 1 Magdalena BryV, Waldemar RóhaNski, and Wanda M.

Genetic polymorphisms in DNA repair genes may aeff ct DNA repair efficiency and may contribute to the risk of developing cancer. The aim of our study was to investigate single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in RAD51 (rs2619679, rs2928140, and rs5030789) and XRCC3 (rs1799796) involved in DNA double-strand break repair and their relationship to prostate cancer. eTh study group included 99 men diagnosed with prostate cancer and 205 cancer-free controls. SNP genotyping was performed using the PCR-RFLP method. A significant association was detected between RAD51 rs5030789 polymorphism and XRCC3 rs1799796 polymorphism and an increased risk of prostate cancer. Our results indicate that RAD51 and XRCC3 polymorphism may contribute to prostate cancer. 1.

The search for markers other than an estimated 1.3 million new cases and 359.000 associated PSA, allowing for early diagnosis and prognosis of prostate deaths worldwide in 2018. It is the most frequently diagnosed cancer, seems to be justified [3, 4]. The factors associated with cancer among men in over one-half of the countries of the an increased risk of prostate cancer include family burden, world [1, 2]. Prostate cancer is characterized by the highest race, ethnicity, obesity, high fat diet, smoking, and exposure dynamic of increase in the last decade, and in 2016, for to androgens [2].

This cancer is very rarely manifested prostate cancer.

Genetic polymorphisms in DNA repair genes may aeff ct DNA repair efficiency and may contribute to the risk of developing cancer. The aim of our study was to investigate single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in RAD51 (rs2619679, rs2928140, and rs5030789) and XRCC3 (rs1799796) involved in DNA double-strand break repair and their relationship to prostate cancer. eTh study group included 99 men diagnosed with prostate cancer and 205 cancer-free controls. SNP genotyping was performed using the PCR-RFLP method. A significant association was detected between RAD51 rs5030789 polymorphism and XRCC3 rs1799796 polymorphism and an increased risk of prostate cancer. Our results indicate that RAD51 and XRCC3 polymorphism may contribute to prostate cancer. 1.

The search for markers other than an estimated 1.3 million new cases and 359.000 associated PSA, allowing for early diagnosis and prognosis of prostate deaths worldwide in 2018. It is the most frequently diagnosed cancer, seems to be justified [3, 4]. The factors associated with cancer among men in over one-half of the countries of the an increased risk of prostate cancer include family burden, world [1, 2]. Prostate cancer is characterized by the highest race, ethnicity, obesity, high fat diet, smoking, and exposure dynamic of increase in the last decade, and in 2016, for to androgens [2]. Germline and somatic mutations appeared the rs fi t time, it became the most common cancer among to be well-established risk factors for primary and metastaic men in Poland [3]. This cancer is very rarely manifested prostate cancer. In addition, genome-wide association studies before the age of 50, and more than half of patients at the (GWAS) have identified approximately 170 SNPs associated time of diagnosis are at least 70 years old.

However, the value of PSA screening is moderate.

Loss of these controls may be a key event leading Patients with prostate cancer (n=99) to genomic instability and tumorigenesis [9, 10]. The human Age RAD51, located on chromosome 15q15.1, plays a crucial Range 49 - 85 role in DNA double-strand break repair [11]. The protein encoded by this gene is a member of RAD51 protein family.
