| Abstract | The tumor suppressor gene TP53 and its regulator MDM2 are both key players involved in multiple pathways including apoptosis, cellular transcriptional control and cell cycle regulation. Common germline polymorphisms in these genes may affect colorectal cancer (CRC) susceptibility. An arginine-to-proline substitution at codon 72 in the TP53 gene is reported to decrease apoptotic potential, while a thymine-to-guanine polymorphism at nucleotide 309 (named SNP309) of murine double minute 2 MDM2 gene increases its transcription. These two polymorphisms therefore may be of importance in colorectal carcinogenesis. The relation of these polymorphisms to colorectal cancer in the Algerian population was addressed in this study. DNA samples from 121 controls and 116 cases were genotyped for these two polymorphisms by PCR/RFLP then confirmed by sequencing. Unexpectedly no significant association was found between this potential marker TP53 Arg72Pro and CRC (p > 0.05). However, our findings reveal that individuals with the MDM2 SNP309 GG genotype have a low risk of CRC as compared to the TT genotype (OR = 0.49; 95 % CI: 0.24–0.98, p = 0.04), with more significance for females (OR = 0.16; 95 % CI: 0.06–0.41, p < 0.05). Moreover, no significant association was observed between the combined TP53 and MDM2 genotypes and CRC. Contrary to initial expectations that the GG genotype with high MDM2 levels would increase cancer risk, our results demonstrate that the MDM2 SNP309 GG genotype is associated with decreased risk of colorectal cancer. This is suggesting that other mechanisms independent of increased MDM2 levels can influence cancer susceptibility. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
