The ECCR1 rs11615, ERCC4 rs2276466, XPC rs2228000 and XPC rs2228001 polymorphisms increase the cervical cancer risk and aggressiveness in the Bangladeshi population.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Multiple studies around the world revealed that genetic polymorphism in different genes of the DNA repair system might affect the DNA repair capabilities and accelerate the chances of cervical cancer (CC) development. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the association of DNA repair gene- ECCR1 rs11615, ERCC4 rs2276466, XPC rs2228000 and rs2228001 polymorphisms and CC susceptibility in the Bangladeshi population.

Methods

A case-control genetic association study was conducted among 210 patients with diagnostically confirmed CC and 200 healthy volunteers. The p-value and OR (odds ratios) with 95% CI (confidence interval) were evaluated to get the level of association.

Results

After the individual analysis of all SNPs, we noticed that <
