Methods: Tumor tissues and surrounding nontumortissues of sixteen PHC cases were studied by Southern hybridization to detect the state of HBV-DNA in tissues, byimmunohistochemical staining to determine HBsAg, HBxAg and p53 protein, and by PCR directed sequencing toanalyse the point mutation of p53 gene exons 5 to 8. Results: Among the 16 cases. 13 cases were HBV-DNA posi-tive, 10 tumor cases and 13 nontumor tissues cases HBxAg positive, and 9 cases posltive for p53 protein. The se-quencing of p53 gene point mutation was found in 5 cases, only one of which was sited at codon 249 G to T. Con-clusion: The mutation of p53 gene codon 249 is infrequent in HBV related PHC,indicating the accumulation of p53protein in cells may be associated with expression of HBxAg. HBxAg binding to p53 protein and inactivation of p53function play important roles in the development of PHC.展开更多

The p53 gene is a tumor suppressor gene found in many malignant and benign tumors;this has the primary function of keeping cells at rest after damaging to DNA. The p53 acts in the maintenance of cellular homeostasis, mainly through autophagy, playing a role in cell cycle arrest, when necessary, thus avoiding mutated DNA replication. When in the oncogenic environment in many cases it is mutated, losing much of its efficiency allowing tumor development. Studies show that exercise can in the regular part of its pro-autophagic function even in the oncology setting. Stimuli of moderate-intensity aerobic and predominance of submaximal seem to trigger the protective function of p53 in various cancer settings. Among the many changes that these pathology triggers were the objective of this mini review is to relate the changes that exercise generates in p53 protein functions and their possible influence on tumor cells.展开更多

Pylori) and gastric carcinoma and its possible pathogenesis by H. Pylori.METHODS: DNEL technique and immunohistochemical technique were used to study the state of apoptosis,proliferation and p53 gene expression. A total of 100 gastric mucosal biopsy specimens, including 20 normal mucosa, 30H. Pylori-negative and 30 H. Pylorf-positive gastric precancerous lesions along with 20 gastric carcinomas were studied.RESULTS: There were several apoptotic cells in the superficial epithelium and a few proliferative cells within the neck of gastric glands, and no p53 protein expression in normal mucosa. In gastric carcinoma, there were few apoptotic cells, while there were a large number of proliferative cells, and expression of p53 protein significantly was increased. In the phase of metaplasia, the apoptotic index (Al, 4.36% ± 1.95%), proliferative index (PI, 19.11% ± 6.79%) and positivity of p53 expression (46.7%) in H. Pylori-positive group were higher than those in normal mucosa (P< 0.01). Al in H. Pylori-positive group was higher than that in H. Pylori-negative group (3.81% ±1.76%), PI in H. Pylori-positive group was higher than that in H. Pylori-negative group (12.25% ±5.63%, P<0.01 ). In the phase of dysplasia, Al (2.31% ± 1.10%) in H. Pylori-positive group was lower (3.05% ± 1.29%) than that in H. Pylori-negative group, but PI (33.89% ± 11.65%)wassignificantly higher(22.09± 8018%, P< 0.01). In phases of metaplasia, dysplasia and gastric cancer in the H. Pylori-positive group, Als had an evidently graduall decreasing trend (P < 0.01 ), while Pis had an evidently gradual increasing trend (P< 0.05 or P< 0.01), and there was also a trend of gradual increase in the expression of p53 gene.CONCLUSION: In the course of the formation of gastric carcinoma, proliferation of gastric mucosa can be greatly increased by H. Pylori, and H. Pylori can induce apoptosis in the phase of metaplasia but in the phase of dysplasia H.pylori can inhibit cellular apoptosis. And H. Pylori infection can strengthen the expression of mutated p53 gene.展开更多

Noexon8 mutation was found in metaplasia and dysplasia, but 4 cases were found to have exon8 mutation in cancer group. It is suggested that exon8 mutation occurs at the late stage of gastric cancer, but exon 5, 6, 7 mutation occur in the course ofprecancerous lesion to cancer. Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) of exon4, intron6,APC was 47,37 % (9/19), 8. 73% (2/23), 16. 67 % (3/18) respectively. LOH of exon4 had something to do with poor differentiation, lymph node metastasis,depth of invasion- LOH of exon4 may be one of prognostic marker of gastric cancer. We are led to conclude that p53 gene mutation is an early event and perhaps work together with ras oncogene in gastric carcinogenesis展开更多
