The TP53 16-bp Duplication Polymorphism Is Enriched in Endometriosis Patients

Abstract: Background/Aim: The TP53 tumor suppressor gene encodes the nuclear phosphoprotein p53, which plays an important role in cell cycle regulation, apoptosis, DNA repair and angiogenesis. The TP53 gene contains common genetic polymorphisms that influence gene activity. Clinical implications of TP53 polymorphisms have been reported for several diseases, including a variety of solid tumors and endometriosis. We evaluated the association of a TP53 duplication polymorphism with endometriosis. Methods: We evaluated the … Show more

“…The state of Jalisco has one of the highest mortality rates for BC [ 5 ]. Breast cancer is considered to be a multifactorial disease, and BC might result from a combination of abnormal protein interactions and environmental factors [ 6 ]. Previous research has implicated a variety of risk factors for BC, including age, early menarche, menopause, oral contraceptive use, cigarette smoking, alcohol consumption, a family history of BC, breast fibrosis, nulliparity, breastfeeding, ethnicity, nutrition and genetics [ 7 ].…”

“…Mög-licherweise ist die Inaktivierung des PTEN-Tumorsuppressorgens einer der ersten molekularen Schritte auf dem Weg der malignen Veränderung [32,40]. Mutationen des p53-Tumorsuppressorgens, die in mehr als der Hälfte aller malignen Tumoren gefunden werden, kommen ebenfalls bereits in gutartigem Endometriosegewebe vor [13].…”
