Abstract
One of the crucial aspects of cancer research is diagnosis with specificity and accuracy. Early cancer detection mostly helps make appropriate decisions regarding treatment and metastasis. The well-studied transcription factor tumor suppressor protein p53 is essential for maintaining genetic integrity. p53 is a key tumor suppressor that recognizes the carcinogenic biological pathways and eradicates them by apoptosis. A wide range of carcinomas, especially gynecological such as ovarian, cervical, and endometrial cancers, frequently undergo TP53 gene mutations. This study evaluates the potential of the p53 gene as a biological marker for the diagnosis of reproductive system neoplasms. Immunohistochemistry of p53 is rapid, easy to accomplish, cost-effective, and preferred by pathologists as a surrogate for the analysis of TP53 mutation. Thus, this review lays a groundwork for future efforts to develop techniques using p53 for the early diagnosis of cancer.
