Analysis of p53 Gene Mutations in Keloids Using Polymerase Chain Reaction–Based Single-Strand Conformational Polymorphism and DNA Sequencing
Abstract
Keloids are the result of a dysregulated wound healing process. They are characterized by the formation of excess scar tissue that proliferates beyond the boundaries of the original wound. Somatic mutations of p53 have been implicated as causal events in up to 50% of all human malignancies. In addition, p53 has been shown to play an important role in controlling cell proliferation and apoptosis. We hypothesize that mutations in p53 can lead to a...
