Abnormalities in the TP53 tumour suppressor gene in 75 atypical ductal hyperplasias and 62 ductalcarcinomas in situ (DCIS) of the breast were studied using immunohistochemistry and mutation analysis. Accumulation of p53 protein was detected in 10 out of 62 (16%) DCIS, whereas no cases of positive staining was observed in the atypical lesions. TP53 mutations were identified in four out of 30 (13%) DCIS by constant denaturant gel electrophoresis (CDGE). Two of these cases were positive and two negative for p53 protein. A total of 12 out of 62 DCIS (19%) carried TP53 mutation and/or p53 protein over-expression. The present results suggest that TP53 alterations may be important in the development of a subset of DCIS.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D006965 Hyperplasia An increase in the number of cells in a tissue or organ without tumor formation. It differs from HYPERTROPHY, which is an increase in bulk without an increase in the number of cells. Hyperplasias
D009154 Mutation Any detectable and heritable change in the genetic material that causes a change in the GENOTYPE and which is transmitted to daughter cells and to succeeding generations. Mutations
D001940 Breast In humans, one of the paired regions in the anterior portion of the THORAX. The breasts consist of the MAMMARY GLANDS, the SKIN, the MUSCLES, the ADIPOSE TISSUE, and the CONNECTIVE TISSUES. Breasts
