Abstract excerpt
The p53 protein has proven to be central in tumorigenesis by its cell cycle regulatory properties and both gene mutations and protein accumulation have been associated with poor prognosis in breast cancer. The present study was undertaken to investigate the prognostic significance of gene mutations, p53 protein accumulation and of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) at the TP53 locus in young (age < 37 years) breast...
