Association among p53 gene mutation, nuclear accumulation of the p53 protein and aggressive phenotypes in breast cancer.

Abstract excerpt

In order to reveal whether differences in the type and site of p53 gene mutations influence the function of the gene and tumor phenotype, we examined nuclear accumulation of the p53 protein immunohistochemically, loss of the other p53 allele by restriction-fragment-length polymorphism analysis, and histological grade of atypia in 52 breast-cancer tissue specimens in which the position and pattern of the mutation...
