Popis: Background: Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the common neoplasm in humans and its main etiological factor is exposure to solar radiation. Mutations in repair genes can lead to tumor progression and loss of cell integrity leading to the onset of cancer. Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is an important mechanism primarily used to repair injuries caused by UV. Objective: To evaluate and describe for the first time the single nucleotide polymorphisms rs745769173, rs761106780 and rs535425175 and risk of developing BCC. Methods: The present study analyzed 100 samples of paraffin-embedded tissue from patients with histopathological diagnosis of BCC and 100 control samples. The results were obtained by genotyping method, Dideoxy Unique Allele Specific – PCR (DSASP) and molecular modeling. Results: The SNP rs535425175 of the XPC gene showed a significant association with the BCC in the analyzed samples (P
