TP53 gene polymorphism: Importance to cancer, ethnicity and birth weight in a Brazilian cohort

Abstract: Arg72Pro SNP of p53 has been associated with many types of cancer as well as with survival and longevity. We evaluated the Arg72Pro SNP frequencies of a Brazilian birth cohort and their association with current, demographic and birth epidemiological parameters available. In 1982, all hospital births of Pelotas, southern Brazil, were identified and studied prospectively. In 2004-5, blood samples were collected and DNA extracted. PCR-RFLP was used to genotype the Arg72Pro SNP in 3794 individual samples of the Br… Show more

“…A careful review of the available literature strengthens the prioritization of TP53 over HES7 . In addition to relevant mouse mutant phenotypes (see Additional file 2) and [5154], TP53 polymorphisms are associated with human birth weight [55], with mature size in sheep [13] and with human height [56]. …”

“…DNA extracted from formalin-fixed tissues increased the OR but its quality is poor and thus, can inhibit PCR amplification (Jee et al, 2004). Both variants have non conservative change (Thurow et al, 2011). The proportions of the Arg/Arg, Arg/Pro and Pro/Pro genotypes showed varying Kappa coefficients ranging from 0.49-0.63.…”

“…As control for extracted DNA quality, the human TP53 gene PCR was performed, using the primers previously described (Lin et al , 2008). PCR were performed in a final reaction volume of 12 μL, and was carried out with one cycle 94 °C for 3 min, followed by 40 cycles at 94 °C for 30 s, 57 °C for 30, 72 °C for 30 s and a final extension for 3 min at 72 °C (Thurow et al , 2011). …”
