background: the aim of this study was to detect the prognostic significance of survivin level and the expression of total p53 in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (all) and its correlation to patients' outcome. methods: sixty two children newly diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia were treated with chemotherapy and followed up for 2 years or until death. twenty apparently healthy volunteers w...

background & objective: the current approaches to reduce the risk of colorectal carcinoma are through the detection and removal of the precursor lesion” adenomatous polyps”. the study was conducted to evaluate the immunohistochemical expression of p53 and bcl2 in colorectal adenomas and carcinomas. patients and methods: a total of 86 cases, 33 colorectal adenomas, 33 colorectal adenocarcin...

aim : the purpose of this study was to assess the incidence of 16bp insertion of intron 3 p53 in gastritis lesion and its correlation with clinicopathological aspects. background : p53 alterations have been implicated in the development of gastric malignancies. patients and methods : 97 gastritis and normal adjacent tissues were investigated for p53 gene analysis using pcr-sequencing of intron3...

background: colorectal cancer (crc) is a common and lethal malignancy worldwide. the incident rate of crc is different in various geographica regions. crc is a multifactorial disease; the factors involved included dietary and genetic factors. p53 gene is the most important tumor suppressor gene which involved in many cancers. the mutation rate in exons 7 and 8 of p53 gene in crc was reported to...

background : biomarkers accepted for clinical use in breast cancer have low sensitivity and specificity. thus, there is a need for new markers to assist in the diagnosis, prognosis and follow-up of breast cancer patients. this study aims to investigate the diagnostic, prognostic and follow-up role of serum bcl-2, bax and p53 proteins in breast cancer patients in comparison with those of serum c...

Background: A major worry of juvenile penile LS is potential malignant degeneration to spinocellular carcinoma (SCC) in adulthood. characterized by increased CD8+ and CD57+ cells, dermal sclerosis, epidermal atrophy, hyperkeratosis. p53 Ki67 are reliable premalignant markers. Our aim was define the immunohistochemical profile foreskin children, focusing on tissue immune response cell proliferat...

Glioblastoma (GBM) is one of the deadliest cranial tumors occurring in adults. Various biomarkers have been tested for their significance diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment GBM. Some well-studied markers GBM are Isocitrate dehydrogenase1 (IDH1), Murine double minute2 (MDM2), Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) p53. The aim this study was to investigate protein expression these patients Pak...

Background: Breast carcinoma is the most common malignancy in women world. This study evaluated expression of ER, PR and p53 breast its correlation with age, size, lymph node status other parameters. Methods: 103 histologically proven cases were subjected to IHC for ER,PR p53. Result: Total cancer 103. All between 21-60 years tumour size varying from 0.5->5cm. Maximum grade III. Metastatic carc...
