| Summary: | Ovarian cancer (OC) is the most lethal gynecological cancer worldwide. DNA damage plays an important role in cancer development, and the proteins encoded by XRCC1 and ERCC2 are important components of the DNA repair system. This study aimed to examine the relationship between the rs25487 XRCC1 and rs13181 ERCC2 polymorphisms and the risk of OC development in women from the Moscow region. DNA was isolated from the blood of 129 healthy donors and tissues and blood samples from 125 patients with OC and studied using real-time PCR. An increase in odds ratios (OR) was obtained for OC tissue and blood for both T (OR = 1.46, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.22–1.76, P = 0.00005), and for T/T of rs25487 XRCC1. The most significant OR values were found for the T/T genotype using the codominant model (OR = 2.11, 95% CI = 1.44–3.07, P = 0.00006) and dominant model (OR = 3.13, 95% CI = 1.44–6.79, P = 0.0025) for the pooled blood and tissue groups. For rs13181 ERCC2, differences were observed for the T/G genotype in OC tissues (OR = 0.69, 95% CI = 0.51–0.92, P = 0.011) in the codominant model. In this study, the association of allele T and genotypes of rs25487 XRCC1 and T/G of rs13181 ERCC2 with OC was shown. Our results indicate that these polymorphisms may be involved in the pathogenesis of OC and are promising for further studies on therapeutic applications in OC.
