Glioma is the most common intracranial malignancy. is a crucial tumor suppressor gene that plays an essential regulatory role in cell growth, apoptosis, and DNA repair. The rs1042522 C>G polymorphism has been reported to be strongly associated with various tumor risks. To assess the rs1042522 C>G polymorphism with glioma risk in Chinese children, we determined the genotypes of the rs1042522 C>G polymorphism in 171 glioma patients and 228 cancer-free controls by Taqman assay. We assessed the association of the polymorphism with glioma risk using odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) generated by logistic regression models. We also performed stratified analyses by age, gender, tumor subtypes, and clinical stages, but no significant association was detected between rs1042522 C>G polymorphism and childhood glioma risk. These results suggest that the rs1042522 C>G polymorphism is not associated with glioma risk in Chinese children. Subsequent studies with a larger sample size are needed to validate our results.

Background: Recurrent genetic abnormalities affecting pivotal signaling pathways are the hallmark of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The identification of these aberrations remains clinically important. Therefore, we sought to determine the cytogenetic profile and the mutational status of TP53 and RAS genes among Moroccan childhood cases of ALL.

Background: Although the association between MDM2 rs2279744 and TP53 rs1042522 polymorphisms and cervical cancer has been reported, the results of its correlation were contradictory. Thus, we conducted a meta-analysis to precisely verify the relationships between MDM2 rs2279744 and TP53 rs1042522 polymorphisms and cervical cancer.
Methods: We thoroughly searched the PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Scopus databases for all potential articles from inception to June 2022 and used R Version 4.

Purpose: Oxidative stress is known to activate tumor suppressor p53, which inhibits cell cycle progression and induces apoptosis. Levels of p53 in lung tissues from patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are increased compared with levels in nonsmokers or smokers without emphysema. A polymorphism in p53 codon 72 (rs1042522) is associated with emphysematous changes in patients with COPD.

The tumor suppressor gene TP53 and its downstream genes P21 and MDM2 play crucial roles in combating DNA damage at the G1/S cell cycle checkpoint. Polymorphisms in these genes can lead to the development of various diseases. This study was conducted to examine a potential association between tobacco substance usage (TSU) and single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) at the exon regions of the P53, P21, and MDM2 genes by comparing populations of smokers and non-smokers from Saudi Arabia.
