The downregulation of zinc ribbon domain-containing 1 (ZNRD1) protein was recently found to partially reverse the resistance of human leukemia cells toward chemical therapeutic drugs. Therefore, the ZNRD1 protein might be involved in the process of DNA damage and repair. To explore the possible protective effects of ZNRD1 on DNA damage induced by ultraviolet (UV)-C irradiation in human esophageal squamous cancer cell line EC109, we designed and transfected a expression vector into EC109 cells, and established an overexpression cell line. The single-cell gel electrophoresis (comet assay) was used to investigate the DNA damage and repair in UV-C-irradiated control and transfected cells. It was found that the ZNRD1-expressing cells exhibited a significant enhanced DNA repair capacity. Moreover, the overexpression of ZNRD1 could upregulate the expression of excision repair cross-complementing 1 (ERCC1) gene. Collectively, these findings suggested that ZNRD1 might play an important role in the process of DNA damage and repair by regulating the expression of ERCC1.
