Uterine serous carcinoma (USC) is closely associated with advanced age in patients. The p53 signature (p53S) is considered the earliest indication for the presence of carcinogenesis of USC. Based on our previous studies, the presence of p53Ss have almost always been found in elderly women and are suspected of being responsible for the imbalance between the proliferation and apoptosis of endometrial epithelial cells with advanced age. We have summarized the current state of knowledge regarding the association between age and cancer and propose an age-related type of endometrial cancer instead of Type II estrogenindependent endometrial cancer.
