With lead times ≤6 months, ovarian cancer detection sensitivity at 0.98 specificity (SE98) varied from 0.19 [95% CI 0.08-0.40] for CTAG1A, CTAG2 and NUDT1 to 0.23 [0.10-0.44] for P53 (0.33 [0.11-0.68] for high-grade serous tumors).
Because chemokine network is involved in OC progression, we evaluated associations between chemokine expression and survival in tumor suppressor protein p53 (<i>TP53</i>) wild-type (<i>TP53</i>WT) and mutant (<i>TP53</i>m) OC datasets.
Positive protein expressions of AIB1, Bcl-2, and p53 were identified in the epithelial ovarian cancer tissues, and with an increase in the tumor staging of ovarian cancer, we found that the positive protein expression rate was gradually augmented.
The ability of anti-SBP1 alone to discriminate infertility or OvCa from controls or when combined with anti-TP53 and CA125, to identify OvCa was evaluated by comparing the area under the curve (AUC) in ROC analysis.
Moreover, in 161 epithelial ovarian cancer patients, multivariate logistic analysis identified late FIGO (International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics) stage, serous histotype, G3 grade and TP53 mutation as independent risk factors for ovarian cancer recurrence.
Forty of 159 ovarian carcinomas (25.2%) were diagnosed in patients with BRCA1 germline mutations; 102 tumors (64.2%) were TP53+ and 57 (37.8%) were TP53-.
In TP53, CGA codons comprise <3% of the total 393 codons but they account for 72% and 39% of the mutations in CRC and ovarian cancer OVC, respectively.
Gene composition analyses of the disrupted modules revealed five common genes (mitogen‑activated protein kinase 1, phosphoinositide 3‑kinase‑encoding catalytic 110‑KDα, AKT serine/threonine kinase 1, cyclin D1 and tumor protein P53) across the four subtypes of ovarian cancer.
Exploratory Analysis of TP53 Mutations in Circulating Tumour DNA as Biomarkers of Treatment Response for Patients with Relapsed High-Grade Serous Ovarian Carcinoma: A Retrospective Study.
A 42-core tissue microarray, which included the 5 major histotypes of ovarian carcinomas with a subset having known TP53 mutational status, was used for this Canadian Immunohistochemistry Quality Control challenge.
In sequential PBMC samples harvested from 13 patients with OC near diagnosis and after a median of 2 different chemotherapy regimens, somatic mosaic PPM1D mutations increased in 11 individuals (84.6%) and TP53 mutations appeared in 2 (15.4%).
We conclude that the recurring mutations in BRCA1, BRCA2 and TP53cannot be detected in the general population or consecutive ovarian cancer cases in this geographical region in Brazil.
The inverse association between miR-34a expression and grading, p53 mutation status and dualistic tumor type classification, together with its prognostic relevance may underline the tumor-suppressive character of miR-34a in ovarian cancer.
