A total of 22 combined SmCC and UCa cases were studied for the clinicopathology and immunohistochemical (IHC) profiles by luminal and basal cell markers as well as Her2/Neu and p53.
Abnormal expression of p16 and p53, but not MDM2, was significantly higher in the tumoral tissue. p53 was concomitantly accumulated in ESCC tumor along with MDM2 overexpression and p16 negative expression.
Mediators of the inflammatory response in esophageal mucosa, perhaps in conjunction with specific dietary or cultural practices in Iran, may contribute importantly to the p53 mutation load in Iranian ESCC patients.
Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the possible associations of p53 and MDM2 polymorphisms with ESCC risk stratified by HPV16 sero-status.
The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the clinicopathological and prognostic significance of p53 and LC3A expression levels in esophageal squamous cell carcinomas (ESCCs). p53 and LC3A expression levels were measured by immunohistochemistry in 114 patients with stage II/III (Tany N+M0 or T3,4 Nany M0) ESCCs treated with surgery followed by adjuvant concurrent chemoradiotherapy.
We assessed the distribution of TP53Pro72Arg polymorphism in one hundred and fifteen and eighty two SCCOT and ESCC patients, respectively, with respect to one hundred and ten healthy controls from the same population.
