## Abstract The human oxoguanine glycosylase 1(hOGG1) gene encodes a DNA glycosylase that is involved in excision repair of 8‐OH‐dG (8‐hydroxy‐2‐deoxyguanine) from oxidatively‐damaged DNA. To determine whether hOGG1 plays a role in the risk for adenocarcinoma of the gallbladder, we tested the assoc

Ser326Cys polymorphism in the hOGG1 gene, which is involved in the repair of 8-hydroxyguanine in oxidatively damaged DNA, has been identified and the variant genotype appears to be related to susceptibility to certain cancers. We investigated the association between Ser326Cys polymorphism and squamo
## Abstract Oxidative stress is involved in many types of DNA damage, __e.g.,__ resulting in 8‐hydroxyguanine adducts. Since a human counterpart exists for the yeast gene __OGG1__ (__hOGG1__) encoding an enzyme that repairs 8‐hydroxyguanine, its polymorphism, Ser^326^Cys, might have potential as a
