Response to Comments on Zheng et al. "Association between Promoter Methylation of Gene ERCC3 and Benzene Hematotoxicity" Int. J. Environ. Res. Public Health 2017, 14, 1393.

In a study of 250 benzene-exposed workers and 140 unexposed controls, single-nucleotide polymorphisms in genes ( BLM , TP53 , RAD51 , WDR79 , and WRN ) that play a critical role in DNA repair and genomic maintenance were associated with highly significant reductions in the white blood cell count among benzene-exposed workers but not controls [ 4 ].
