Xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group C (XPC) protein is a DNA damage recognition factor in nucleotide excision repair and involved in regulating NSCLC cell proliferation and viability.
Xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group C (XPC) protein is an important DNA damage recognition factor in nucleotide excision repair and is involved in regulating non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell proliferation and viability.
Blocking miR-346 by an antagomiR was sufficient to inhibit NSCLC cell growth and metastasis, an effect that could be phenol-copied by RNAi-mediated silencing of XPC.
This study evaluated promoter methylation status for eight selected DNA repair genes (ATM, BRCA1, ERCC1, MGMT, MLH1, NEIL1, RAD23B and XPC) in 56 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumours and 11 lung cell lines using the methylation-sensitive high resolution melting (MS-HRM) methodology.
