Abstract
BACKGROUND: Excision repair cross-complementing group 1 (ERCC1) is a major DNA repair protein. Recent studies have addressed the association between ERCC1 polymorphism and carcinogenesis. METHODS: We investigated a polymorphism of ERCC1 at nucleotide 19007 (C-->T, Asn118Asn) in 94 epithelial ovarian cancer patients, 102 endometrial cancer patients, and in 329 control subjects. RESULTS: We observed no evidence of associations between the C19007T ERCC1 polymorphism and risk of epithelial ovarian or endometrial cancer, which had the same adjusted odds ratios of 0.91 (p = 0.711, 0.691 respectively). CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest that the C19007T ERCC1 polymorphism is unlikely to play an important role in epithelial ovarian or endometrial cancer in Korean women.
