The results showed that positive proportion of p53 protein expression was 74.20% (28 of 37 squamous cell carcinoma, 21 of 30 adenocarcinomas) in cigarette smoking group with lung cancers, and 38.46% (3 of 8 squamous cell carcinoma, 7 of 18 adenocarcinomas) in nonsmoking group with lung cancers. The difference was statistically significant. Odds ratio was 4.14 and confidence limits for OR was 1.42-12.52. A dose-related presents in the p53 protein expression for the smoking amount and smoking years. The positive proportion of P21 protein expression was 79.31% (21 of 28 squamous cell carcinoma, 25 of 30 adenocarcinomas) in cigarette smoking group with lung cancers, and 82.75% (10 of 11 squamous, 14 of 18 adenocarcinomas) in nonsmoking group with lung cancers, the difference was not statistically significant. But their positive proportion of P21 protein expression were very high in both groups. It was indicated that no relationship between cigarette smoking and the P21 protein expression. We suggest that the p53 gene could be a common target of tobacco-associated carcinogenesis in lung cancer.展开更多

Gastric cancer is the most common disease in China. Its incidence is the second among various malignant tumors.There were reports about p53 protein expression and gastric cancer progression but few report on p53 protein expression in different stages of precancerous lesions was available. In this study,we analyzed p53 protein expression in gastric cancer and precancerous lesions by flow cytometry to evaluate the role of p53 protein in the pathogenesis of gastric cancer.展开更多

No positive expression was found in normal smooth muscle tissues of the gastrointestinal tract. Over-expression of P53 gene was found in a significantly higher proportion in leiomyosarcomas (90%) and potentially malignant smooth muscle tumors (75%) as compared to leiomyomas (14%) (P< 0.005). The quantitation of P53 expression was found to be progressively enhanced in the sequence from leiomyoma through potentially malignant smooth muscle tumor to leiomyosarcoma (P< 0.005). It was markedly over-expressed when the mitotic counts ranged from one to more than one per 10 high power fields (P< 0.005) or the mild cytologic atypia was found (P< 0.005). The five-year survival rate was significantly higher in patients with low-expression of P53 than in those with over-expression of P53 (P< 0.005). It was suggested that P53 over-expression might be associated with the transformation of leiomyoma into leiomyosarcoma and could be used as an objective parameter in distinguishing the malignant from the benign and predicting the prognosis of patients with smooth muscle rumors of the gastrointestinal tract.展开更多
