Tumor suppressor p53: regulation and function.
The p53 protein is a transcription factor involved in maintaining genomic integrity by controlling cell cycle progression and cell survival. Mutations in p53 are the most frequently seen genetic alterations in human cancer. The function of p53 is critical to the way many cancer treatments kill cells because radiotherapy and chemotherapy act in part by triggering programmed cell death in respons...

متن کاملRegulation of the p53 tumor suppressor protein.
Mutations in the p53 tumor suppressor gene occur in about 50% of all human tumors, making it the most frequent target for genetic alterations in cancer (for recent reviews on p53 see Refs. 1–5). Such mutations probably facilitate carcinogenesis primarily through abrogating the tumor suppressor activities of the wild type p53 protein, although at least some forms of tumor-associated mutant p53 p...
متن کاملP53 tumor suppressor gene therapy for cancer.
The last two decades have led to a greater understanding of the genetic basis of human malignancy. Although numerous genetic alterations have been detected in cancer, activation of oncogenes and inactivation of cell cycle regulators (e.g., tumor suppressor genes) are now known to play a critical role in the progression of the disease. Therapeutic strategies based on specific molecular alteratio...
متن کاملTumor Suppressor p53 Can Protect Normal Cells Against Dendrosomal Curcumin-Induced Apoptosis
Curcumin is a natural substance with anti-cancerous properties without many disadvantages of currently-used anticancer drugs. Its toxicity is significantly higher in tumor cells compared with normal cells. We hypothesized the difference of p53 function between normal and tumor cells as one of the presumable causes of this phenomenon. We knocked down the expression of p53 in normal fibrobl...
