The purpose of this study was to evaluate the loss of heterozygosity (LOH) in chromosomes 17p13 (p53 gene) and in 18q21 (mammary serine protease inhibitor [maspin] gene), and the expression of both genes in tissues, in patients with oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (SCC).
Thirty patients with oral cavity SCC have been evaluated for the presence of LOH in chromosomes 17p13 and 18q21, and the expression of p53 and maspin in tissues. Clinicopathological features and survival in these patients were also analyzed.
LOH in 17p13 was more frequently identified in patients with lymph node metastasis and/or high TNM classification. LOH in 18q21 was more frequently identified in high primary T classification patients. Increased expression rate of p53 and/or decreased maspin expression rate were significantly higher in oral cavity SCC than normal tissues.
LOH on chromosome 17, 18, the expression of p53, and maspin are related to the carcinogenesis of oral cavity SCC. Relationships with clinicopathological factors in oral cavity SCC were also revealed. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Head Neck 37: 1239-1245, 2015.
本研究旨在评估口腔鳞状细胞癌(SCC)患者17号染色体p13区域(p53基因)和18号染色体q21区域(乳腺丝氨酸蛋白酶抑制剂[maspin]基因)的杂合性缺失(LOH)情况,以及这两个基因在组织中的表达。
对30例口腔SCC患者评估了17号染色体p13区域和18号染色体q21区域的LOH情况,以及组织中p53和maspin的表达。还分析了这些患者的临床病理特征和生存率。
17号染色体p13区域的LOH在有淋巴结转移和/或高TNM分期的患者中更常见。18号染色体q21区域的LOH在原发T分期高的患者中更常见。口腔SCC中p53表达率升高和/或maspin表达率降低显著高于正常组织。
17、18号染色体的LOH、p53和maspin的表达与口腔SCC的致癌作用有关。还揭示了与口腔SCC临床病理因素的关系。©2014威利期刊公司。《头颈》37:1239 - 1245,2015年。
