The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of p53 overexpression in feline oral squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) and to determine, if any, the association between p53 overexpression and lifestyle factors and environmental exposures, including exposure to environmental tobacco smoke (ETS). Questionnaires concerning exposure to ETS and other environmental factors were sent to owners of cats presenting to the Harrington Oncology Program with a diagnosis of oral SCC between 1991 and…

Prevalence of p53 dysregulations in feline oral squamous cell carcinoma and non-neoplastic oral mucosa

An important role of p53 in feline oral tumorigenesis is suggested and the screening for p53 dysregulations, alone or in association with other markers, can eventually contribute to the early detection of this devastating disease.

Feline Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma: A Critical Review of Etiologic Factors

A critical review about the potential etiologic factors of FOSCC was performed, considering publications between 2000 and 2022, aiming to synthesize all available scientific evidence regarding this issue.

Influence of environmental tobacco smoke on the etiology of lymphoma in domestic cats

Based on epidemiological research, exposure to smoke is related to the emergence of neoplasms in domestic cats similar to that in humans, but it is necessary to develop new research in the veterinary area.

p16, pRb, and p53 in Feline Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma

The staining pattern of p16, p53, and pRb in FOSCC was different from human head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and feline cutaneous squamouscell carcinoma, therefore, inactivation of CDKN2A is suspected to play a role in the pathogenesis of F OSCC.

Exposure to cigarette smoke causes DNA damage in oropharyngeal tissue in dogs.

Increased p16CDKN2A, but not p53, immunostaining is predictive of longer survival time in cats with oral squamous cell carcinomas.

Quantitative Expression and Co-Localization of Wnt Signalling Related Proteins in Feline Squamous Cell Carcinoma

The results show that putative targets of Wnt signalling transcription are up-regulated in FOSCC with alterations in the co-localization of these proteins and could serve as a useful marker for the disease.

Effects of sidestream tobacco smoke on P53 expressions in Rattus novergicus tongue epithelial mucosa

Exposure to cigarette smoke can induce changes in tumor suppressor genes and also affect the regulation of cell apoptosis, thus changing cell structure and leading to malignancy.

Environmental and lifestyle risk factors for oral squamous cell carcinoma in domestic cats.

Results of this study suggest that flea control products, diet, and perhaps environmental tobacco smoke might be associated with risk of oral SCC and indicate that further investigation into these relationships is warranted.

p53 mutations and exposure to environmental tobacco smoke in a multicenter study on lung cancer.

A significant 3-4-fold increased risk of p53 mutation is indicated in smoking lung cancer cases, and it suggests that mechanisms of lung carcinogenesis in ETS-exposed never-smokers include mutations in the p53 gene, similar to that seen in smokers.

Molecular analysis has now detected an accumulation of genetic lesions in oral cancer, but the earliest molecular changes in the oral epithelium in the progression to malignancy in at-risk patients has not yet been determined.

Immunohistochemical analysis of 4-aminobiphenyl-DNA adducts in oral mucosal cells of smokers and nonsmokers.

This study examined the dose-response relationship for 4-Aminobiphenyl-DNA adducts in oral cells of smokers and non smokers to suggest individual differences relevance in metabolizing carcinogens and/or repairing DNA damage.

Immunohistochemical quantitation of 4-aminobiphenyl-DNA adducts and p53 nuclear overexpression in T1 bladder cancer of smokers and nonsmokers.

It is demonstrated that the immunohistochemical method has sufficient sensitivity for detection of 4-ABP-DNA adducts in human bladder samples and there was a significant correlation between p53 overexpression and recurrence of disease.

Immodetection of p53 protein is thus possible in all domestic species tested, especially with CM-1 and PAb-240 antibodies, and p53 alterations seem to occur early in carcinogenesis of feline SCC as in comparable human lesions.

A similar 2-3-fold range in relative staining was found in smokers and nonsmokers for both 4-ABP- and PAH-DNA, suggesting the importance of individual differences in capacity to metabolize the carcinogens and/or repair damaged DNA.
