p53 Protein Expression in Esophageal Squamous Cell Papillomas: A Study of 36 Lesions

Abstract: We speculate that these findings are the result of immunohistochemical detection of the stabilized wild-type p53 protein rather then mutated p53 protein.

“…The hot debate is whether or not the squamous cell carcinoma is caused by human papilloma virus. Some researchers insisted the association of squamous papilloma and human papilloma virus [5, 7, 8], but others denied the association [6]. In the present study, although no viral examination was performed, koilocytosis as seen in uterine cervix neoplasm and condyloma acuminatum was not recognized.…”

“…It has been widely studied in gynecological cancers, mostly in cervical cancers. In esophageal SCP, genotype 6 HPV, which has lower oncogenic risk profile, is mainly detected (12)(13)(14). In our study, amongst the 38 SCPs analyzed, 7 (19%) were positive for HPV DNA (5 males and 2 females); 3 SCPs were of genotype 6, whereas 4 were of genotypes 16, 18, 31, and 81 that are known to have high oncogenic potential.…”

“…Interestingly, p53 seems to be mutated even in early precancer lesions, at least in the high risk area of China, 135 although p53 mutations are exceptional in benign SCPs. 136 The presence of frequent mutations of the p53 gene in both HPV positive and HPV negative carcinomas suggests an important role for environmental carcinogens in oesophageal carcinogenesis. 20 93 104 132 133 135-140 Recently, several HPV-16 and HPV-18 positive cells lines from oesophageal SCCs have been established, 92 and have been used to study HPV replication.…”
