A preliminary study of microsatellite instability analysis in different genotypes of p53 codon 72 in breast invasive ductal carcinomas
Abstract Background: The polymorphic variants at codon 72 of the p53 gene, encoding either proline or arginine at residue 72, produce marked change in the structure of p53. From the evidence that the DNAmismatch repair system and p53 interact to maintain genomic integrity, we hypothesized that the codon 72 variation may influence the prevalence of microsatellite instability a featur...
متن کاملhMLH1 promoter methylation and lack of hMLH1 expression in sporadic gastric carcinomas with high-frequency microsatellite instability.
Mutation of DNA mismatch repair genes has rarely been documented in sporadic gastric carcinoma with microsatellite instability (MSI). In sporadic colorectal carcinoma, hMLH1 promoter methylation associated with protein loss is found in the majority of high-frequency MSI cases. We investigated a series of 35 sporadic gastric carcinomas stratified into high-frequency MSI (MSI-H), low-frequency MS...
متن کاملP53 and Ki67 protein expression in ocular squamous cell carcinomas of dairy cattle
Role of the protein overexpression is very important in the pathogenesis, diagnosis and prognosis of neoplasia. Cases of overexpression of p53 and Ki67 proteins were investigated in 19 ocular squamous cell carcinomas (OSCC) in dairy cows. Microscopically, insix cases the tumors were carcinoma in situ (noninvasive carcinoma, G0), and in the remaining 13 cases the tumors were invasive carcinoma. ...
متن کاملPrognostic significance of CpG island methylator phenotype and microsatellite instability in gastric carcinoma.
PURPOSE The influence of molecular characteristics in prognosis of gastric cancer remains unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prognostic value of the CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP) and microsatellite instability (MSI) in gastric cancer. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN We studied the methylation profiles of tumor suppressor gene p16, DNA mismatch repair gene hMLH1, and four CpG isla...
متن کاملMethylation of hMLH1 in a population-based series of endometrial carcinomas.
Microsatellite instability (MSI) is a characteristic feature of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer and is also observed in sporadic colorectal and endometrial cancers. Alterations in the mismatch repair genes hMLH1 and hMSH2 are important for the development of MSI. It has recently been demonstrated that hypermethylation of the hMLH1 promoter region is associated with MSI and appears to ...
