Brief Summary: Four rare genetic diseases xeroderma pigmentosum XP Cockayne syndrome CS the XPCS complex and trichothiodystrophy TTD have defective DNA excision repair although only XP has increased cancer susceptibility We plan to perform careful clinical examination of selected patients with XP XPCS CS or TTD and follow their clinical course We will obtain tissue skin blood hair buccal swabs for laboratory examination of DNA repair and for genetic analysis We hope to be able to correlate these laboratory abnormalities with the clinical features to better understand the mechanism of cancer prevention by DNA repair Patients will be offered counseling and education for cancer control
Detailed Description: Three rare genetic diseases xeroderma pigmentosum XP Cockayne syndrome CS and trichothiodystrophy TTD have defective DNA excision repair although only XP has increased cancer susceptibility We plan to perform careful clinical examination of selected patients with XP CS TTD or overlap syndromes to follow their clinical course We will obtain tissue skin blood hair or buccal cells for laboratory examination of DNA repair and for histologic protein biochemical and genetic analysis We hope to be able to correlate these laboratory abnormalities with the clinical features to better understand the mechanism of cancer prevention by DNA repair Patients will be offered counseling and education for cancer control
