Abstract:
AIM: To investigate the expression map of two p53 binding proteins 53BP1 and 53BP2 in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) tissue.METHODS: The expression of 53BP1 and 53BP2 mRNA in NPC biopsy and control group are tested by RT-PCR. The expression of two mRNA in NPC paraffin section are examined by in situ hybridization. RESULTS: No expression of 53BP1 mRNA was found in NPC tissue and control group. However, expression of 53BP2 was detected in NPC biopsy and control group by RT-PCR, specific expressoin found cancerous nest in NPC paraffin section by in situ hybridization.CONCLUSION: The high expression of 53BP2 may be related to the development of NPC.
