## Abstract The influence of __p53__ mutations on the response to ionizing radiation and survival was retrospectively evaluated in patients treated with preoperative radiotherapy for rectal carcinoma. From 1989 to 1991, 86 rectal cancer patients treated by preoperative radiotherapy were included in

## BACKGROUND. Although p53 gene mutation frequently is observed in ovarian carcinoma, the function of the p53 gene in chemosensitivity has not been defined conclusively. The objective of the current study was to elucidate the relation between chemotherapy-induced apoptosis through the p53 pathway
Experimental studies suggest that angiogenesis plays an important role in the pathogenesis of ascites and progression of ovarian cancer. To evaluate the association of intratumoral microvessel density (IMD) with the conventional clinicopathologic features and to determine the capability of these fac
## BACKGROUND. Accumulation of mutated p53 in malignant cells can lead to the generation of anti-p53 autoantibodies in the serum and other body fluids of cancer patients. This retrospective study was performed to evaluate the prognostic significance of preoperative serum and ascitic anti-p53 antibo
The prognostic significance and nature of p53 dysfunction in ovarian carcinoma is unclear. The relation between p53 overexpression, p53 mutations, and their effects on overall survival in primary ovarian carcinoma is explored. ## METHODS. Tumor specimens from 171 consecutive epithelial ovarian ca
