Mutation Analysis of TP53 Tumor Suppressor Gene in Colorectal Cancer in Patients from Iran (Kerman Province)
Objective(s) P53 is an important tumor suppressor, which is mutated in later stages of many cancers and leads to resistance to chemotherapy. The aim of this study was to reveal mutations of TP53 in colorectal cancer in Kerman province. Materials and Methods A total of Forty-three colon cancer specimens as paraffin block or fresh tissues, which passed stage IIIA, were selected. Three exons 5,...
متن کاملTumor Suppressor p53 Can Protect Normal Cells Against Dendrosomal Curcumin-Induced Apoptosis
Curcumin is a natural substance with anti-cancerous properties without many disadvantages of currently-used anticancer drugs. Its toxicity is significantly higher in tumor cells compared with normal cells. We hypothesized the difference of p53 function between normal and tumor cells as one of the presumable causes of this phenomenon. We knocked down the expression of p53 in normal fibrobl...
متن کاملP53 antigen expression in cutaneous Melanoma and its relation to tumor thickness
Background: P53 tumor suppressor gene mutation is one of the most common genetic alterations in human malignancies. The mutated from of the gene is stable and can be detected with immunohistochemistry methods. There is much controversy about the expression rate of this gene in malignant melanoma. Objective: To determine the frequency of the P53 antigen expression by sex, age, type and thickness...
متن کاملP-93: Analysis of P53 Codon 72 Gene Polymorphism in Isfahanian Patients With Endometriosis
Background: The p53 tumor suppressor gene plays important roles in genomic stability. Several reports have noted racial differences in the prevalence of p53 genotypes at the codon 72 in patients with endometriosis.To study the association of endometriosis with p53 codon 72 polymorphism in the population of Isfahan. Materials and Methods: We undertook a case–control study to examine the possible...
متن کاملAnalysis of Exon 19 and 39 of ATM Gene in Brain Tumors; Considering the P53 Accumulation
Many studies have been focused on cytogenetic and molecular genetic defects in brain tumors; therefore the role of ATM as a tumor suppressor gene in these tumors is poorly considered. In this study mutation analysis of exon 19 and 39 of ATM gene and P53 accumulation were investigated by PCR-SSCP, sequencing, and flow cytometry . Four polymorphisms including D1853N, IVS 38-8 T?C, F858L, P872T we...
متن کاملStudy of pH influence on the stability of 175th codon of P53 genes by computational and modeling methods
P53 tumor suppressor gene, also known as “genome guardian” is mutated in more than half of allkind of cancers. In this study we have investigated the controls of environmental pH for P53 genemutation in point of specific sequence which is prone to mutagenesis. The most probable cancerousmutations occur as point mutations in exons 5-8 of P53 gene. The 175th codon of P53 is the thirdmost mutated ...
