A method was established for detecting mutations in the mouse p53 gene by cDNA-PCR-SSCP, using four cell lines which were derived from forestomach tumors induced in CDF, mice by 2-amino-3,4-dimethylimidazo [4,5-f]quinoline (MeIQ). All the cell lines were demonstrated to have mutations in exons 4, 5, 7 and 10, respectively, and the method was confirmed to be efficient and reliable. It was therefore used to analyse the role of p53 gene mutations in forestomach carcinogenesis induced by MeIQ, by examining four original tumors, one papilloma, two primary carcinomas and one lymph node metastasis. The papilloma (F 14) and the carcinoma (F 12) had mutations, but the lymph node metastasis of F 12 mouse (F 12 LN) did not. These results thus indicate that p53 mutations may occur relatively early but do not confer any predisposition for lymph node metastasis.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D016133 Polymerase Chain Reaction In vitro method for producing large amounts of specific DNA or RNA fragments of defined length and sequence from small amounts of short oligonucleotide flanking sequences (primers). The essential steps include thermal denaturation of the double-stranded target molecules, annealing of the primers to their complementary sequences, and extension of the annealed primers by enzymatic synthesis with DNA polymerase. The reaction is efficient, specific, and extremely sensitive. Uses for the reaction include disease diagnosis, detection of difficult-to-isolate pathogens, mutation analysis, genetic testing, DNA sequencing, and analyzing evolutionary relationships.
