   Abstract

We investigated association between polymorphisms in DNA repair genes and the capacity to repair DNA damage induced by {gamma}-irradiation and by base oxidation in a healthy population. Irradiation-specific DNA repair rates were significantly decreased in individuals with XRCC1 Arg399Gln homozygous variant genotype (0.45±0.47 SSB/109 daltons) than in those with wild-type genotype (1.10±0.70 SSB/109 daltons, P=0.0006, Mann-Witney U-test). The capacity to repair oxidative DNA damage was significantly decreased among individuals with hOGG1 Ser326Cys homozygous variant genotype (0.37±0.28 SSB/109 daltons) compared to those with wild-type genotype (0.83±0.79 SSB/109 daltons, P=0.008, Mann-Witney U-test). Investigation of genotype combinations showed that the increasing number of variant alleles for both XRCC1 Arg399Gln and APE1 Asn148Glu polymorphisms resulted in a significant decrease of irradiation-specific repair rates (P=0.008, Kruskal-Wallis test). Irradiation-specific DNA repair rates also decreased with increasing number of variant alleles in XRCC1 Arg399Gln in combination with variant alleles for two other XRCC1 polymorphisms, Arg194Trp and Arg280His, P=0.002 and P=0.005, respectively; Kruskal-Wallis test). In a binary combination variant alleles of hOGG1 Ser326Cys and APE1 Asn148Glu polymorphisms were associated with a significant decrease in the capacity to repair DNA oxidative damage (P=0.018, Kruskal-Wallis test). In summary, XRCC1 Arg399Gln and hOGG1 Ser326Cys polymorphisms seem to exert the predominant modulating effect on irradiation-specific DNA repair capacity and the capacity to repair DNA oxidative damage, respectively.
