Abstract：
BACKGROUND:The p53 gene is frequently mutated in various human tumours. In addition, single nucleotide polymorphisms are often observed in exons and introns of the p53 gene in normal tissues and tumours. MATERIALS AND METHODS:A total of 210 blood and tissue samples from 182 ovarian cancers (OC) and 28 ovarian borderline tumours, in addition to blood samples from 72 healthy women, were analysed. The used analyses were PCR and SSCP. The distinguishable SSCP patterns were confirmed by DNA sequencing. RESULTS:A polymorphism located at position 38 in intron 2 of the p53 gene was studied in blood and tumour tissues from Danish ovarian tumour patients and in blood from controls. Significant differences were found between the distributions of the genotypes in blood samples compared to the corresponding tissue samples (p = 0.0002). A tendency towards a significant difference in survival was observed between OC stage II patients with a shift from one genotype in the blood to another genotype in the tissue and patients with no shift (p = 0.05). In multivariate COX regression analysis restricted to stage III OC patients, the only independent factors found were shift, serum-tetranectin and age. CONCLUSION:A shift from one p53 intron 2 genotype in the blood to another genotype in the tissue may be a prognostic factor in ovarian cancer patients.
