Unequal prognostic potentials of p53 gain-of-function mutations in human cancers associate with drug-metabolizing activity
[Paper-level Aggregated] PMCID: PMC3973211
Evidence Type(s): Prognostic, Oncogenic, Functional
Justification: Prognostic: The text indicates that mutations on Arg248 and Arg282 residues are associated with significantly shorter overall survival times in cancer patients, as demonstrated by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and multivariate Cox regression analysis. Oncogenic: The passage discusses how p53 mutations, particularly R248 and R282, confer novel oncogenic functions and are linked to increased expression of drug metabolism enzymes, suggesting a role in cancer progression and treatment resistance. Functional: The evidence shows that p53 mutations R248W and R282W induce higher expression of the CYP3A4 enzyme, which is involved in drug metabolism, indicating a functional impact of these mutations on cellular processes related to chemotherapy response.
