Although TP53 alterations have been studied in human tumors, data considering the role of two common TP53 polymorphisms (Pro72Arg in codon 72 and Ins16bp in intron 3) and their associations with TP53 mutations in gastric cancer are very limited. Thus, we analyzed these parameters taking into consideration the clinicopathological data. DNA from 106 gastric tumor samples was available for TP53 Pro72Arg and TP53 Ins16bp polymorphism genotyping by PCR-RFLP and PCR, respectively. The mutational status of the TP53 exons 5-7 was assessed by the single-strand conformational polymorphism test. The TP53 72ArgArg genotype was statistically associated with patients aged ≥65 years (p = 0.039), and the intron 3 A2A2 genotype was correlated with late-stage tumors (III and IV; p = 0.043). Considering both polymorphisms, a negative correlation between the TP53 Pro-A1 haplotype and age &lt;65 years (r = -0.211; p = 0.030) was found. Taking into account the TP53 mutations, the Pro/Pro genotype was positively correlated with the presence of exon 7 mutations (p = 0.049), and a correlation between this genotype and the number of mutations in TP53 was observed (p = 0.019). This study corroborates the understanding of TP53 polymorphisms in gastric carcinogenesis, especially regarding the genetic features in tumor onset and prognosis.
