Genetic polymorphisms in DNA base excision repair gene <it>XRCC1 </it>and the risk of squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The genes of base excision repair (BER) pathway have been extensively studied in the association with various human cancers. We performed a case-control study to test the association between two common single nucleotide polymorphisms...
