Prospective detection of codon 249 mutations in plasma of hepatocellular carcinoma patients.
A specific missense mutation in the p53 tumor gene at codon 249 has been reported in over 50% of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tumors and in paired blood samples from areas of high dietary exposure to aflatoxin B1, including Qidong, People's Republic of China. Using a combination of pre-digestion with HaeIII, PCR and mass spectrometry, the temporality of this mutation in plasma before and afte...
متن کاملRelationship between codon 249 mutation in exon 7 of p53 gene and diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma
INTRODUCTION Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common malignancies worldwide. Multiple genetic and epigenetic changes are involved in the molecular pathogenesis of HCC. Heat shock proteins have essential roles in protecting cells from the potentially lethal effects of stress. Among them, HSP70 are often overexpressed in cells of various cancers and have been suggested to contrib...
متن کاملHepatocellular carcinoma p53 G > T transversions at codon 249: the fingerprint of aflatoxin exposure?
The molecular epidemiology of p53 mutations allows the possibility of correlating particular mutations with specific environmental carcinogens and establishing one step in the causal pathway between exposure to carcinogens and the development of cancer. A striking example is the G > T transversion at the third base pair of codon 249 observed in liver cancer patients possibly exposed to high lev...
متن کاملHepatitis B 1762T/1764A mutations, hepatitis C infection, and codon 249 p53 mutations in hepatocellular carcinomas from Thailand.
Hepatocellular carcinoma is one of the leading causes of cancer death worldwide. The etiology of liver cancer is multifactorial, and infection with hepatitis B virus (HBV), whose pathogenesis is exacerbated by the acquisition of mutations that accelerate carcinogenesis, or hepatitis C virus (HCV) and dietary exposure to aflatoxin B(1) all contribute to elevating one's risk for this disease. In ...
