Biological and predictive role of ERCC1 polymorphisms in cancer

Abstract: Excision repair cross-complementation group 1 (ERCC1) is a key component in DNA repair mechanisms and may influence the tumor DNA-targeting effect of the chemotherapeutic agent oxaliplatin. Germline ERCC1 polymorphisms may alter the protein expression and published data on their predictive and prognostic value have so far been contradictory. In the present article we review available evidence on the clinical role and utility of ERCC1 polymorphisms and, in the absence of a 'perfect' trial, what we call the 'sli… Show more

“…ERCC1 is also crucial for the repair of cyclophosphamide-induced DNA damage and cells, both normal and cancerous, and low-activity mutants may be hypersensitive to DNA crosslinking agents [ 30 ]. Two ERCC1 polymorphisms selected for this study, p.Asn118= (rs11615) in exon 4 and c.1510C>A (rs3212986) in 3’UTR are extensively studied in many cancers and chemotherapeutic regimes because of their negative influence on the stability and level of ERCC1 mRNA and on the protein expression [ 31 ]. Silent variant p.Asn118= is associated with lower protein’s expression, transcript stability and protein levels [ 32 ].…”

“…Elevated expression of DDB2 (damaged DNA binding protein 2) may be interpreted as response to DNA damage and repair, since this gene encodes a smaller subunit of the damaged DNA binding protein DDB, which recognizes DNA damage and is required for efficient NER, a DNA repair pathway involved in the removal of bulky DNA adducts (Forestier et al 2015 ). ERCC1 (DNA excision repair protein 1) forms the ERCC1-XPF enzyme complex that participates in NER and repair of inter-strand crosslinks (Formica et al 2017 ). Upregulated expression of TP73 (p73) is an indicator of DNA damage as TP73 promotes a growth arrest and/or apoptosis similar to p53 (Candi et al 2014 ).…”
