✦ Synopsis


p53 gene mutations in early and advanced colorectal cancer were detected by PCR-SSCP analysis. Early colorectal cancer was classified into de novo cancer and polypforming cancer, respectively, according to morphology and presence of adenomatous components. A total of 94 paraffin-embedded tissue specimens from patients with colorectal cancer were analysed. p53 gene mutations were detected in 40.0V0 (12/30) of de novo cancer, 36.7% (I I /30) of polypforming cancer, and 44% (I 5/ 34) of advanced cancer. p53 mutations were detected at a high frequency in both types of early colorectal cancer as well as in advanced cancer. No correlations were found between p53 mutations and clinicopathological data. Our data suggest that the p53 gene mutations occurred in the early colorectal cancer stage of carcinogenesis regardless of the pathway.

Tumorigenesis is thought to be a multistep process in which genetic alterations accumulate to bring about the neoplastic phenotype. Colorectal tumors appear to arise as a result of the mutational activation of oncogenes coupled with the inactivation of several tumor suppressor genes. We have found f

bcl-2 was originally identified as an oncogene involved in follicular lymphomas as a result of chromosomal translocation (14;18). It is now believed that bcl-2 is implicated in the regulation of cell death by inhibiting apoptosis and that its expression is not restricted to haematopoietic cells, but

Cytogenetic analysis of short-term cultures from colorectal adenomas revealed acquired clonal chromosome aberrations in I 4 of 17 tumors. In 4 adenomas, only numerical changes were found, whereas 10 had structural rearrangements. Trisomy 7 was found as the sole change in one of the tumors and togeth

p2lCipl was first isolated as one of the cyclin-dependent kinase (Cdk) interacting proteins induced by wild-type p53 gene product, and it appears to play an essential regulatory role in the control of cell proliferation as a potent, tight-binding inhibitor of cyclin-Cdk complex that blocks the G,/S
