Mutational analysis of TP53 gene in Tunisian familial hematological malignancies and sporadic acute leukemia cases

Abstract: Mutations are responsible for familial cancer syndromes which account for approximately 5-10 % of all types of cancers. Familial cancers are often caused by genetic alterations occurring either in tumor suppressor or genomic stability genes such as TP53. In this study, we have analyzed the TP53 gene by direct sequencing approach, in a panel of 18 Tunisian familial hematological malignancies cases including several forms of leukemia, lymphoma and myeloid syndrome and 22 cases of sporadic acute leukemia. In one … Show more

“…As shown in Table 5, the GA genotype represents risk factor (OR, 3.5; CI, 1.5-8.12; p=0.002), the AA genotype represents risk factor (OR,5.7;CI,p=0.005), and the allele A represent risk factor (OR, 3.1;CI,p=0.0001). In this study, it has been demonstrated, according to qPCR results that the rs1642785 SNP was found in the examined sample; therefore, this SNP can be considered a risk factor for acute myeloid leukemia, which is consistent with the findings of other researchers 23 , who indicated that there was an association between rs1642785 and AML risk. Several studies investigated the relationship between rs1642785 genotypes and cancer.…”

“…Its pattern and geographical spread are similar to that of malaria and ancient human migration on the continent ( 387 392 ). This aggressive pediatric B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma is caused by the EBV, which induces genomic instability in the B-cell that results in hyperproliferation ( 393 , 394 ) and it is associated with unique TP53 mutations that are clustered between codons 213 to 248 ( 395 397 ).…”

“…The TP53 gene encodes p53 protein, which plays a central role in the arrest of cell cycle and apoptosis following DNA damage [26,27]. At present, over 200 SNPs in TP53 have been identified (http://www-p53.iarc.fr/).…”
