    Evidence:
    OR=2.32, 95% CI: (1.25-4.31) 
    Effect:
    XRCC2 Arg188His polymorphism may be one of the genetic modifiers for smoking-related pancreatic cancer

    XRCC2 and XRCC3 gene polymorphism and risk of pancreatic cancer.
    Species studied:
    Human
    Abstract:
    XRCC2 and XRCC3 are key components of the homologous recombination (HR) machinery that repairs DNA double-strand breaks. We hypothesized that the altered HR repair capacity conferred by single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) would modify individual susceptibility to sporadic pancreatic cancer.
