To determine the genotype and haplotype frequency of these three p53 polymorphisms in 61 patients with cervical squamous cell carcinoma and 94 ethnically matched controls from the eastern region of India and estimate the risk, if any, of specific genotypes and haplotypes.
In the pathogenesis of cervical squamous cell carcinoma, an inverse correlation between human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and mutation of the p53 anti-oncogene has been suggested.
This cell line is useful for studying the carcinogenesis of cervical carcinoma and for investigating the biological characteristics of a HPV-negative and mutated p53squamous cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix.
Using a PCR assay to detect the p53 codon 72 polymorphism, we tested blood samples from 111 women with invasive squamous cell cancer of the cervix identified by a population-based registry and 164 random-digit telephone-dialed controls.
After adjusted by age and p53 genotype, significant difference was still observed in the number of sexual partners (P = 0.017) The partners' smoking increased the risk to develop SCCA.
This study provides a detailed analysis of TP53 mutation spectra in cervical squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma from different geographical regions.
Polymorphisms of the MHC and p53 genes seem to influence the outcome of HPV infection and progression to SCCC, although controversial data have been reported.
The effect of the EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor BIBX1382BS on radiation sensitivity was determined after single- and fractionated-dose irradiation in human cell lines of bronchial carcinoma (A549), breast adeno-carcinoma (MDA-MB-231), pharyngeal squamous-cell carcinoma (FaDu), squamous-cell carcinoma of cervix (HTB-35) as well as normal (HSF-7) and transformed (HH4-DED) human skin fibroblasts.
In patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix, the presence of PIK3CA mutations was associated with a significantly longer overall survival (median, 9.4 months) than the absence of PIK3CA mutations (median, 4.2 months; p = 0.019).
Additional genomic alterations, independent of integration events, include recurrent PIK3CA mutations (and aberrations in other members of the PI3K pathway), alterations in receptor tyrosine kinases (primarily FGFR2 and FGFR3 in HPV-positive HNSCC, and ERBB2 in cervical squamous cell carcinoma), and genes in pathways related to squamous cell differentiation and immune responses.
The heterozygous genotype of two loci in the PIK3CA gene (rs3729679: uncorrected P=0.022 and rs12494623: uncorrected P=0.018) was associated with an increased risk of chemoresistance in SCC patients.
Additional genomic alterations, independent of integration events, include recurrent PIK3CA mutations (and aberrations in other members of the PI3K pathway), alterations in receptor tyrosine kinases (primarily FGFR2 and FGFR3 in HPV-positive HNSCC, and ERBB2 in cervical squamous cell carcinoma), and genes in pathways related to squamous cell differentiation and immune responses.

The objective of this study was to investigate the predictive value of common genetic alterations of PI3K/AKT/mTOR and Ras/Raf/MAPK pathways in patients with locally advanced cervical squamous cell carcinoma (LACSCC) treated with cisplatin-based concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT).
In this study, the HLA-A, -B, and -DRB1 alleles among 100 southern Chinese women with cervical squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) were compared to 254 controls.

Most multilocus results were similar for SCC that contained HPV16; a notable exception was A*0101-B*0801-Cw*0701-DRB1*0301-DQB1*0201 and its subsets, which were associated with HPV16-positive SCC (odds ratio, 0.5; 95% confidence interval, 0.3-0.9).
The objective of this study was to evaluate the association between genetic polymorphisms in the PI3K/Akt pathway and chemotherapeutic outcomes following platinum-based NAC in Northwestern Chinese Han patients with squamous cervical cancer (SCC).
