Abstract:
Objective:To study the relationship between smoking and P53 protein expression in oral tumor tissue.Methods:The expression of P53 protein in oral tumor tissue was detected in 22 smoking cases and 32 nonsmoking cases by immunohistochemical SP method. SAS software was used for statistic analysis.Results:The positive expression rate of P53 protein in smokers (90.91%) was higher than that in nonsmokers (46.88%,P0.05). Conclusion:Smoking may stimulate the mutation of p53 gene and play an important role in the carcinogenesis of oral tissues.
