Abstract:

Objective(s) P53 is an important tumor suppressor, which is mutated in later stages of many cancers and leads to resistance to chemotherapy. The aim of this study was to reveal mutations of TP53 in colorectal cancer in Kerman province. Materials and Methods A total of Forty-three colon cancer specimens as paraffin block or fresh tissues, which passed stage IIIA, were selected. Three exons 5, 7 and 8 of P53 were amplified by PCR technique and sequenced directly. Results The results showed two deletions at codon 140 and 142 in one tumor sample. GAT→AAT mutation at codon 184, and CGG→TGG mutation at codon 248 were seen in some tumor samples. Some mutations were also observed in middle of intron 7 in some tumor or normal tissues. Conclusion Some of those patients with mutation in P53 gene had metastasis in other organs. Therefore, genetic test before chemotherapy is helpful for successful treatment.

Detection of Mutations in Exons 5 and 8 of Tumor Suppressor Tp53 Gene in Patients with Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Lung Hospitalized in Afzalipour Hospital, Kerman, Iran

Introduction: Despite improvements in the diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer in the past two decades, it has remained the most common cause of death from cancer worldwide. Among all genes that are mutated in lung cancer, TP53 located on chromosome 17P13/1 has a significant diagnostic and prognostic value. TP53 mutations have been extensively studied in lung cancer and TP53 mutational spectr...

BRCA1 Gene Mutations in Breast Cancer Patients from Kerman Province, Iran

BACKGROUND Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in Iranian women. Mutations in BRCA1 gene is one of the important genetic predisposing factors in breast cancer. This gene is a tumor suppressor that plays an important role in regulating the functions of RAD51 protein for strand invasion in homologous recombination repair. METHODS The BRCA1 gene has amplified in the DNA isolated from bre...
