description <p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Polymorphisms in DNA repair genes have been associated to repair DNA lesions, and might contribute to the individual susceptibility to develop different types of cancer. Nucleotide excision repair (NER), base excision repair (BER), and double-strand break repair (DSBR) are the main DNA repair pathways. We investigated the relationship between polymorphisms in two NER genes, <it>XPC </it>(poly (AT) insertion/deletion: PAT-/+) and <it>XPD </it>(Asp312Asn and Lys751Gln), the BER gene <it>XRCC1 </it>(Arg399Gln), and the DSBR gene <it>XRCC3 </it>(Thr241Met) and the risk of developing lung cancer.</p> <p>Methods</p> <p>A hospital-based case-control study was designed with 516 lung cancer patients and 533 control subjects, matched on ethnicity, age, and gender. Genotypes were determined by PCR-RFLP and the results were analysed using multivariate unconditional logistic regression, adjusting for age, gender and pack-years.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>Borderline association was found for <it>XPC </it>and <it>XPD </it>NER genes polymorphisms, while no association was observed for polymorphisms in BER and DSBR genes. <it>XPC PAT+/+ </it>genotype was associated with no statistically significant increased risk among ever smokers (OR = 1.40; 95%CI = 0.94–2.08), squamous cell carcinoma (OR = 1.44; 95%CI = 0.85–2.44), and adenocarcinoma (OR = 1.72; 95%CI = 0.97–3.04). <it>XPD </it>variant genotypes (<it>312Asn/Asn </it>and <it>751Gln/Gln</it>) presented a not statistically significant risk of developing lung cancer (OR = 1.52; 95%CI = 0.91–2.51; OR = 1.38; 95%CI = 0.85–2.25, respectively), especially among ever smokers (OR = 1.58; 95%CI = 0.96–2.60), heavy smokers (OR = 2.07; 95%CI = 0.74–5.75), and adenocarcinoma (OR = 1.88; 95%CI = 0.97–3.63). On the other hand, individuals homozygous for the XRCC1 <it>399Gln </it>allele presented no risk of developing lung cancer (OR = 0.87; 95%CI = 0.57–1.31) except for individuals carriers of <it>399Gln/Gln </it>genotype and without family history of cancer (OR = 0.57; 95%CI = 0.33–0.98) and no association was found between <it>XRCC3 </it>Thr241Met polymorphism and lung cancer risk (OR = 0.92; 95%CI = 0.56–1.50), except for the <it>241Met/Met </it>genotype and squamous cell carcinoma risk (OR = 0.47; 95%CI = 0.23–1.00).</p> <p>Conclusion</p> <p>In conclusion, we analysed the association between <it>XPC</it>, <it>XPD</it>, <it>XRCC1</it>, and <it>XRCC3 </it>polymorphisms and the individual susceptibility to develop lung cancer in the Spanish population, specifically with a highly tobacco exposed population. We attempt to contribute to the discovery of which biomarkers of DNA repair capacity are useful for screening this high-risk population for primary preventing and early detection of lung cancer.</p>
