| الوصف: | Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) at chromosome band 10q23 occurs frequently in a wide variety of human tumors. A recently identified candidate tumor suppressor gene, PTEN located on 10q23, is mutated in multiple advanced cancers. To explore whether PTEN is associated with human squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN), DNAs from both normal muscle and tumor tissue in 19 SCCHN were used for detecting LOH at chromosome 10q23 and mutational analysis of PTEN by direct polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-DNA sequencing. LOH at 10q23 was identified in 6/15 SCCHN. Mutation of PTEN was identified in 3/19 SCCHN. Of these 3 patients, 2 had stage IV disease; the third patient, with recurrent, metastatic and stage III disease, showed a 36 bp germline heterozygous deletion within intron 7. Furthermore, a missense mutation at codon 501 (TCT --> TTT: Ser --> Phe) in exon 8 was also found in tumor from the same patient. Our results suggest that PTEN may play a role in the genesis of some SCCHNs. |
