A functional variant in TP63 at 3q28 associated with bladder cancer risk by creating an miR‐140‐5p binding site
AssociationN=6,832Meilin Wang et al.(2016)· International Journal of Cancer

A three-stage fine mapping study of the 3q28 bladder cancer susceptibility locus identified rs35592567 in the 3'-UTR of TP63 as a functional causal variant. The T allele was significantly associated with decreased bladder cancer risk (OR=0.82, 95% CI=0.75-0.90, P=9.797×10⁻⁶). Functional studies showed the variant affects miR-140-5p binding, regulating TP63 post-transcriptional levels and affecting bladder cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion.

Genetic variant in TP63 on locus 3q28 is associated with risk of lung adenocarcinoma among never-smoking females in Asia
AssociationN=7,254Hosgood HD 3rd et al.(2012)· Human Genetics

This association study examined two TP63 SNPs (rs10937405 and rs4488809) in 3,467 never-smoking female lung cancer cases and 3,787 controls from ten Asian studies. The T allele of rs10937405 was significantly associated with lung adenocarcinoma risk (p = 7.1 × 10⁻⁸, allelic risk OR = 0.80, 95% CI = 0.74–0.87). The finding was replicated and strengthened in this larger Asian female population compared to previous GWAS.

About TP63

This gene encodes a member of the p53 family of transcription factors. The functional domains of p53 family proteins include an N-terminal transactivation domain, a central DNA-binding domain and an oligomerization domain. Alternative splicing of this gene and the use of alternative promoters results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms that vary in their functional properties. These isoforms function during skin development and maintenance, adult stem/progenitor cell regulation, heart development and premature aging. Some isoforms have been found to protect the germline by eliminating oocytes or testicular germ cells that have suffered DNA damage. Mutations in this gene are associated with ectodermal dysplasia, and cleft lip/palate syndrome 3 (EEC3); split-hand/foot malformation 4 (SHFM4); ankyloblepharon-ectodermal defects-cleft lip/palate; ADULT syndrome (acro-dermato-ungual-lacrimal-tooth); limb-mammary syndrome; Rap-Hodgkin syndrome (RHS); and orofacial cleft 8.
