Alterations of p53 gene in primary gastric cancer tissues
1994
The study was conducted to investigate the p53 gene alterations in 25 surgically-resected gastric adenocarcinomas in the Korea Cancer Center Hospital by polymerase chain reaction single-strand conformation polymorphism analysis (PCRSSCP) for exons 4-8 and immunohistochemical staining (IHCS) with anti-p53 antibody, D0-7. p53 mutations were detected in nine (36%) out of 25 cancer tissues by PCR-SSCP in exon 4-8: 0,1,1,6 and 1 mutations in exons 4,5,6,7 and 8, respectively. All tissues were also tested by IHCS, and positive staining was observed in 11 cases (44%). A discrepancy of the results between the two methods was observed in four cases. In one which showed positivity by PCR-SSCP a negative reaction by IHCS, the two base deletion was observed in exon 7
