The expression of the mdm2 gene may be related to the aberration of the p53 gene in human hepatocellular carcinoma.

Abstract excerpt

The relationship between mdm2 gene expression and p53 gene mutation in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and their correlation with the invasiveness of the disease were investigated in this study. Either the expression level of the mdm2 gene or the mutation rate of the p53 gene was higher in HCC than in paratumor liver tissues. Studies on the relationship between mdm2 and p53 revealed that mdm2 gene expression in...
