Our study identified miR-223-3p, as a tumor suppressor gene, markedly inhibited cell proliferation and migration via miR-223-3p-mutant p53 feedback loop, which suggested miR-223-3p might be a new therapeutic target in LSCC bearing p53 mutations.
Survival analysis found that TP53 and EGFR showed a significant correlation (log rank P = 3e-07 and 0.023) with lung adenocarcinoma and lung squamous cell carcinoma, according to KM analysis.
Patients with lung squamous cell carcinoma possessed favorable overall survival benefits from TTN mutant type and both favorable overall survival and disease-free survival benefits from TTN/TP53 double mutation.
The HPV typing and mutation analysis of all TP53 coding exons is a valuable diagnostic tool in patients with HNSCC and concurrent lung SCC, which can help to ensure that patients receive the most suitable treatment.
We propose a role as early prognostic biomarkers for pERK protein levels in adenocarcinoma, and for nuclear p53 levels in squamous cell lung carcinoma.
In the 26 lung SCC tumor samples (12 from never-smokers and 14 from ever-smokers) sequenced using personal genome machine, the most common mutations were in TP53 (75.0%), RAS (66.7%), and STK11 (33.3%), but mutations were also found in EGFR, KIT, and PTEN.
Using fluorescence in situ hybridization we detected loss of the TP53-specific 17p13.3 locus in 23 from 41 analyzed SQCC samples (56.1%) and in 20 from 54 analyzed AC samples (37.0%).
Because of the high frequency of TP53 mutations in lung squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), we sought to investigate the association of integrin β4 expression with clinicopathologic features and survival in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
In non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), both USP7 expression and p53 gene status were reported to be an indicator of poor prognosis in adenocarcinoma patients; however, its roles and mechanisms in lung squamous cell carcinoma and large cell carcinoma need to be clarified.
Genotypes for two DNA repair genes, TP53 and OGG1, showed significant associations with SQC risk (p < 0.05), and those for two GWAS genes, CHRNA3 and HLA-DQA1, showed significant associations with SQC risk (P < 0.05) with odds ratios between 1.65 (95% confidence interval = 1.06-2.57 for OGG1) and 2.57 (95% confidence interval = 1.03-6.87 for CHRNA3).
Distinct status of p53 acetylation/deacetylation and HIC1 alteration mechanism result from different SIRT1-DBC1 control and epigenetic alteration in lung squamous cell carcinoma and lung adenocarcinoma.
The study provided first evidence that KIAA0767, a Death Inducing Protein, a novel p53 independent target of E2F1, and Geminin, an inhibitor of DNA replication are differentially expressed in LSCC.
Comparison of p53 mutations between adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma of the lung: unique spectra involving G to A transitions and G to T transversions in both histologic types.
Several studies have suggested that p53 protein accumulation and mutation occur in the early pathogenesis of squamous cell carcinoma of the lung, suggesting some abnormality of the p53 tumor-suppressor gene in interstitial lung diseases.
