A Case-Control Study of Involvement of Oxidative DNA Damage and Alteration of Antioxidant Defense System in Patients with Basal Cell Carcinoma: Modulation by Tumor Removal

Figure 3

DNA repair and antioxidant gene expression in nonmalignant skin tissues of control subjects and BCC tissues. Gene expression was evaluated by real-time PCR with the method. The data are presented as the fold change in gene expression normalized to GAPDH. Values given are mean ± SD. The statistical significance of differences between the control and case was evaluated by nonparametric variables with Mann Whitney test. compared to control.
