Functional and genomic characterization of three novel cell lines derived from a metastatic gallbladder cancer tumor

Biol. Res; 53 (), 2020
BACKGROUND: Gallbladder cancer (GBC) is the most common tumor of the biliary tract. The incidence of GBC shows a large geographic variability, being particularly frequent in Native American populations. In Chile, GBC represents the second cause of cancer-related death among women. We describe here the es...

Adrenocortical tumors associated with the TP53 p. R337H germline mutation can be identified during child-care consultations

J. pediatr. (Rio J.); 94 (4), 2018
Abstract Objective: To evaluate the clinical features associated with adrenocortical hormone overexpression and familial cancer profiling as potential markers for early detection of adrenocortical tumors in children from South and Southeast Brazil. Methods: The clinical manifestations and anthropometri...

Immunohistochemical WWOX expression and association with angiogenesis, p53 expression, cell proliferation and clinicopathological parameters in cervical cancer

Abstract Objective The current study evaluated the expression of WW domain-containing oxidoreductase (WWOX), its association with clinicopathological features and with p53, Ki-67 (cell proliferation) and CD31 (angiogenesis) expression in patients with invasive cervical squamous cell carcinoma (ICSCC). ...

Association between the p53 arginine/arginine homozygous genotype at codon 72 and human papillomavirus E6/E7 mRNA expression

Braz. j. infect. dis; 21 (3), 2017
ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the association between p53 polymorphisms and human papillomavirus (HPV) E6/E7 mRNA expression. Methods: We analyzed 175 cervical samples from women aged 16-69 years old who were tested for HPV E6/E7 mRNA expression (NucliSENS® EasyQ® HPV). The samples were divided int...

Lack of evidence of HPV etiology of prostate cancer following radical surgery and higher frequency of the Arg/Pro genotype in turkish men with prostate cancer

Int. braz. j. urol; 43 (1), 2017
ABSTRACT Objectives The aim of this study was to assess the possible role of HPV in the development of prostate cancer (PCa) and investigate the distribution of the p53 codon 72 polymorphism in PCa in a Turkish population. Materials and methods A total of 96 tissues, which had been obtained using a r...

P53 overexpression in epidermoid carcinoma of the head and neck

Säo Paulo med. j; 115 (1), 1997
The theory of field cancerization in tumors of the head and neck reflects the complex oncogenesis that occurs in this region. The mechanisms that control cell proliferation at the molecular level in epidermoid carcinomas (ECs) of the upper aerodigestive tract are still unclear. Mutations in p53 are the g...
