Genetic status of p53 in stomach cancer: Somatic mutations and polymorphism of codon 72

Abstract: The incidence of somatic mutagenesis of p53 oncosuppressor protein in malignant tumors of the stomach and genetic polymorphism of p53 were studied in patients with stomach cancer on DNA samples isolated from tumor tissues obtained during surgery. The incidence of Pro/Pro genotype increased in the patients, while the percentage of Arg/Pro heterozygotes was markedly lower compared to long-living persons without cancer. The incidence of p53 somatic mutations in exons 5, 7, 8 was 70.8%; multiple mutations were det… Show more

“…Inconsistent associations were observed for tumor protein p53 (TP53) Arg73Pro, the most widely studied polymorphism. Meta-analysis of the 14 included studies showed that, overall, the Pro allele at codon 72 of TP53 was not significantly associated with GC (OR, 1.08; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.91 -1.27) (Figure 2 15,20,26,27 and two in the Caucasian populations 16,25 ), and therefore the summarized results have to be interpreted with caution. One study on this polymorphism shown in Table 1 was excluded from the meta-analysis because the genotype frequencies and ORs were not reported by the original article.…”

“…Several polymorphisms and somatic mutations in p53 have been identiWed. A common one at codon 72 of exon 4, which encodes proline (Pro) or arginine (Arg), has been reported to aVect the risks of many types of cancer especially of lung cancer (Agorastos et al 2004;Belyavskaya et al 2006;Chen et al 2000;Lee et al 2000;Weston et al 1992;Zehbe et al 2001). Although many studies have reported the Pro allele at codon 72 was a risk factor for developing lung cancer (Fernandez-Rubio et al 2008;Liu et al 2001;Mechanic et al 2007;Popanda et al 2007;Sreeja et al 2008;Szymanowska et al 2006), the results are inconclusive.…”

“…Chung et al [10] reported frequent polymorphism at codon-72 and suggested that the Pro/Pro genotype was associated with proximal cancer and Arg/Arg genotype with distal cancer. Mutation at codon-72, exon-4 of p53 was also reported in gastric cancer patients by Belyavskaya et al [6], Yi and Lee [11], Cañas et al [12], and many other studies. It is worthy to mention that mutation at codon-72, exon-4 of p53 has also been reported not to be associated with gastric carcinoma in different populations [13,14].…”

“…More than 50% of human cancers contain a mutation of the p53 gene [4]. Many somatic and germ line p53 mutations lead to a loss of p53 function have been detected in gastric cancer patients [5,6]. Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (K-RAS) is an important regulator in many signal transduction pathways.…”
