Maintenance of p53 alterations throughout breast cancer progression.

Abstract excerpt

Overexpression of the nuclear phosphoprotein p53 is one of the most common abnormalities in primary human cancer and appears to be due to point mutation within a highly conserved region of the p53 gene which then encodes for a mutant, more stable protein. In this study different stages of breast cancer progression were examined, from in situ to metastatic disease, to determine at what stage mutational activation...
