p53 exon 4 (codon 72) polymorphism and exon 7 (codon 249) mutation in breast cancer patients in southern region (Madurai) of Tamil Nadu.
BACKGROUND We investigated the association between polymorphisms in the p53 tumor suppressor gene and breast cancer risk in women especially in the Southern part of India. METHODS Genotyping was performed for 50 breast cancer women and 50 controls to determine the status of p53 exon 4 codon 72 polymorphism and exon 7 codon 249 mutation and their possible role in breast cancer risk. RESULTS ...
متن کاملRelationship between codon 249 mutation in exon 7 of p53 gene and diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma
INTRODUCTION Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common malignancies worldwide. Multiple genetic and epigenetic changes are involved in the molecular pathogenesis of HCC. Heat shock proteins have essential roles in protecting cells from the potentially lethal effects of stress. Among them, HSP70 are often overexpressed in cells of various cancers and have been suggested to contrib...
متن کاملP53 codon 72 polymorphism in Taiwanese breast cancer patients.
There are clear discrepancies between ethnicity and geographic area regarding the peak age incidence and mortality of breast cancer. Underlying variances include genetic, environmental, and socioeconomic factors. The wild-type p53 codon has two common polymorphic variants from a single-base-pair substitution at codon 72, where either C-C-C encodes proline (p53-p72) or C-G-C encodes arginine (p5...
متن کامل“p53 Polymorphism at Codon 72 and Breast Cancer” - Letter
We read with interest the recently published systematic review and meta-analysis titled “The Evaluation of p53 Polymorphism at Codon 72 and Association With Breast Cancer in Iran: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis”. We believe that there are few important issues in the systematic review and meta-analysis that require clarification. A key characteristic of a systematic review is a comprehens...
متن کاملFrequency of p53 Gene Codon 72 Polymorphisms in Women with Breast Cancer in Iran
Backgrounds and Aims: P53 gene is regarded important in pathogenesis of different cancers. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the frequency of p53 gene codon 72 Arg/Pro polymorphism in women suffering from breast cancer. Materials and Methods: A total of 90 patients with breast cancer and 83 matched healthy control women participated in this case-control study. Genomic DNA was extrac...
