Susceptibility
  • to melanoma
  • to poor prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer
  • Variant & Polymorphism other
  • significant associations with the strongest associations for melanoma cases aged 50 and under
  • ERCC1 C8092A polymorphism may influence the non-small cell lung cancer patients prognosis regardless of the ERCC1 protein expression and platinum sensitivity

    ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
  • Ercc1-knockout mice, survive for up to 4 weeks after birth
  • Ercc1 deficient mice show severe growth retardation associated with premature replicative senescence leading to liver failure and death at four weeks of age
