Mutação do Gene p53 induzindo predisposição hereditária ao câncer: relato de um caso da síndrome de Li-Fraumeni

Abstract: RESUMO:A Síndrome de Li-Fraumeni é uma síndrome de predisposição familiar ao câncer, caracterizada pela presença de múltiplos tumores, tais como sarcomas, carcinomas de mama, tumores cerebrais e leucemia. O caso relatado é de uma paciente feminina de 37 anos, que apresenta uma significativa história familiar de câncer, bem como história pessoal de seis diferentes tumores primários (um de cólon, um nevus displásico, um de ovário e três de mama). O seqüenciamento do gene supressor de tumor p53 em seus linfócitos… Show more

“…Consideration should be given to the possibility of the patient having a genetic mutation of important cell division regulating genes, namely: growth promoters, cell growth inhibitors, and genes that regulate the cell cutting program. 20 Among them, we highlight the cell growth inhibitory genes, also called tumor suppressors, in which the main alteration is in the TP53 gene (encoder of p53 protein-this protein has several antitumor effects, remains genetic, and inhibits angiography through cellular apoptosis). Therefore, with a mutation of this gene, there is no efficient DNA repair, thus contributing to the formation of abnormal cells.…”

“…Therefore, with a mutation of this gene, there is no efficient DNA repair, thus contributing to the formation of abnormal cells. 20,21 Due to the fact that the patient presented tumors in different primary sites, a hypothesis was formed that the patient was a carrier of the Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS), an autosomal dominant disease in which the TP53 mutation is the main gene involved. 22 Li-Fraumeni syndrome relates to the diagnosis of various types of tumors in young patients, multiple primary tumors, and a characteristic pattern of family grouping of a variety of cancers (central tumors including: bone and soft tissue sarcomas, central nervous system tumors, leukemia, adrenocortical carcinoma, and breast cancer).…”
