Infrequent p53 gene alterations in ulcerative colitis

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to determine whether point mutations and loss of the p53 gene take place in ulcerative colitis which is histologically negative for dysplasia. DNA was extracted from 13 frozen rectal or colon biopsies and blood samples. Ulcerative colitis was classified histologically as active (10 cases) and inactive (3 cases). Exons 5-8 were amplified by PCR, treated with exonuclease and shrimp alkaline phosphatase and sequenced by the dideoxy chain termination method with the Sequenase Version … Show more

“…In the present study p53 expression was similar to in those studies. However, Mattar et al [16] did not find p53 gene mutation in UC that was histologically negative for dysplasia. Reactive species produced during inflammation and sustained oxidative stress can induce p53 mutation.…”

“…The PCR product (5 l) was then incubated with exonuclease I (1 l) and shrimp alkaline phosphatase (1 l) contained in the PCR product presequencing kit (USB, Cleveland, OH) for 15 min at 37°C, and then inactivated for 15 min at 80°C, and finally incubated at 4°C. Exonuclease I and shrimp alkaline phosphatase included in the PCR product presequencing kit were used to effectively remove the excess deoxynucleoside triphosphates and primers from DNA produced by PCR amplification (Matter et al, 1999). For cycle sequencing, the reaction mixture (20 l) consisted of 2 l of BigDye Terminator Version 3 (Applied Biosystems, Uppsala, Sweden), 1.6 pmol of a sequencing primer (Table 2), 3 l of (1ϫ) sequencing buffer (Applied Biosystems), and 4.4 l of the PCR products (10 -40 ng of the PCR-amplified DNA).…”
