A comprehensive compilation of data on the association between XRCC3 polymorphisms and thyroid cancer susceptibility
XRCC3 rs1799794 polymorphism is associated with increased thyroid cancer risk, particularly under recessive genetic models. The rs1799796 variant may confer a protective effect in Asian populations, whereas rs861539 shows no significant association. These results highlight population-specific genetic effects and underscore the importance of considering ethnicity in genetic association studies. Further large, well-designed investigations are warranted to confirm these findings and to explore potential gene-environment interactions.
