METHODS： One-hundred and nine controls and 53 patients with colon cancer from the city of La Plata, Argentina were analyzed, p53 codon 72 genotypes and HPV infection were identified using allele-specific polymerase chain reaction and nested polymerase chain reaction, respectively. RESULTS： The differences in the distribution ofp53 codon 72 polymorphisrn between the cases and controls were statistically significant. The arginine allele had a prevalence of 0.65 in controls and 0.77 in cases. The corresponding odds ratio for the homozygous arginine genotype was 2.08 （95% CI, 1.06-4.05; P〈0.05）. Lack of association was found between ,053 polymorphism and HPV infection in the set of adenocarcinomas. CONCLUSION： The findings of the present study indicate that p53 codon 72 arginine homozygous genotype may represent a genetic predisposing factor for colon cancer development. However, further studies are needed in order to elucidate the role of p53 codon 72 polymorphism in colorectal cancer.展开更多

The change from an arginine（Arg） to a proline（Pro） at codon 72 can influence the biological activity of p53, which predisposes to an increased risk of recurrent spontaneous abortion（RSA）. In order to investigate the association between p53 polymorphism at codon 72 and RSA, we conducted this meta-analysis. Pubmed, Embase and Web of science were used to identify the eligible studies. Odds ratio（OR） with 95% confidence interval（CI） was used to evaluate the strength of the association. Six studies containing 937 cases of RSA and 830 controls were included, and there was one study deviated from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium（HWE）. There was a significant association between p53 polymorphism at codon 72 and RSA in recessive model（Pro/Pro vs. Pro/Arg＋Arg/Arg; OR=1.60, 95% CI： 1.14–2.24） and co-dominant model（Pro/Pro vs. Arg/Arg; OR=1.47, 95% CI： 1.02–2.12） whether the study that was deviated from HWE was eliminated or not. A significant association was observed in allelic model（Pro vs. Arg; OR=1.28, 95% CI： 1.04–1.57） after exclusion of the study that was deviated from HWE. No association was noted in recessive model（Pro/Pro＋Pro/Arg vs. Arg/Arg; OR=1.05, 95% CI： 0.86–1.30） and co-dominant model（Pro/Arg vs. Arg/Arg; OR=0.96, 95% CI： 0.77–1.19）. Subgroup analysis by ethnicity also indicated a significant association between p53 polymorphism at codon 72 and RSA in Caucasian group. No heterogeneity and publication bias were found. Our meta-analysis implied that p53 polymorphism at codon 72 carries high maternal risk of RSA.展开更多
