Association Between Survivin Gene Polymorphisms and the Susceptibility to Colon Cancer Development in the Turkish Population

Abstract: Background: Colon cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide. Apoptosis is a necessary physiological process for cell elimination which is very important both cellular homeostasis and cell proliferation and differantiation. Dysregulation can lead to uncontrolled cell growth and tumor development. Survivin, a member of the IAP family, plays a key role in promotion of cell proliferation as well as inhibition of apoptosis in cancer cells. The aim of this study was to investigate whether specific genetic p… Show more

“…They stated that colonic carcinoma was caused mainly by gene mutations, especially genes that were involved in DNA repair and replication. Among these genes, we can name the APC gene or adenomatosis polyposis gypsy, in which 80-85% of cases of colonic carcinoma are related to the mentioned gene mutation (20)(21)(22).…”

“…Esta puntualización se hace necesaria considerando que, por ejemplo, el papel biomarcador del IMC puede ser dependiente del género (23,26). A esto se le suma el conocimiento creciente sobre el papel de determinados polimorfismos de un solo nucleótido (SNP de las siglas en inglés Single Nucleotide Polymorphism) sobre el riesgo de recurrencia o supervivencia al CCR (43)(44)(45)(46). Con todo esto, se necesitan estudios de gran cohorte que abarquen pacientes con CCR de diferentes estadios, con diferente genotipo de SNP, de ambos sexos, etc.…”

“…The extracted genomic DNA was then confirmed by gel electrophoresis in a 1% agarose gel after staining with safe dye and visualized under a UV transilluminator documentation system. Suspensions containing DNA were stored at -20 °C until their use as a template for PCR (21,22).…”
