Only Missense Mutations Affecting the DNA Binding Domain of P53 Influence Outcomes in Patients with Breast Carcinoma
24 Jan 2013
Abstract excerpt
The presence of a TP53 gene mutation can influence tumour response to some treatments, especially in breast cancer. In this study, we analysed p53 mRNA expression, LOH at 17p13 and TP53 mutations from exons 2 to 11 in 206 patients with breast carcinoma and correlated the results with disease-free and overall survival. The observed mutations were classified according to their type and location in the three protein...
