The aim of this study was to reveal mutations of TP53 in colorectal cancer in Kerman province. Materials and Methods A total of Forty-three colon cancer specimens as paraffin block or fresh tissues, which passed stage IIIA, were selected. Three exons 5, 7 and 8 of P53 were amplified by PCR technique and sequenced directly. Results The results showed two deletions at codon 140 and 142 in one tumor sample. GAT→AAT mutation at codon 184, and CGG→TGG mutation at codon 248 were seen in some tumor samples. Some mutations were also observed in middle of intron 7 in some tumor or normal tissues. Conclusion Some of those patients with mutation in P53 gene had metastasis in other organs. Therefore, genetic test before chemotherapy is helpful for successful treatment.}, keywords = {Colorectal cancer,Point mutation,tp35 tumor suppressor gene}, url = {https://ijbms.mums.ac.ir/article_4838.html}, eprint = {https://ijbms.mums.ac.ir/article_4838_7af6b2d7fcd7f8000bf8a570af265ecf.pdf} }
