Abstract
We have previously shown that high DNA repair capacity protects psoriasis patients against chemically induced basal cell carcinoma [Dybdahl et al. Mutat. Res. 433 (1999) 15-22]. We have used the same study persons to investigate the correlation between expression of eight genes involved in nucleotide excision repair and DNA repair capacity. mRNA levels of XPA, XPB, XPC, XPD, XPF, XPG, CSB and ERCC1 in primary lymphocytes from 33 individuals were quantified by dot-blots and normalized to -actin. ERCC1 and XPD mRNA quantities were highly correlated (r=0.89; P
