Expression of p53, p63 and p73 in the orofacial region of human embryos.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We studied p53, p63, p73 protein expression in the orofacial region of five human embryos aged 7-18 weeks of intrauterine development using a three-step immunohistochemical method. Expression of proteins in various locations was evaluated semiquantitatively. A decrease in p53, p63 and p73 proteins occurred in the 13-week-old material with the exception of the tooth germ where a drop in p73 appeared in the ninth week.

p53, p63 and p73 expression and angiogenesis in keratocystic odontogenic tumors
BACKGROUND Keratocystic odontogenic tumors (KCOTSs) are odontogenic tumors previously referred to as odontogenic keratocysts. Several studies have reported that KCOT behavior is more like that of a benign neoplasm than a cyst. KCOTs are locally destructive and exhibit a high recurrence rate. The objective of this study is to characterize the expression of p53, p63 and p73 in KCOTs together with...
متن کاملUse Distinct Pathways to Repress Telomerase Expression
Background: Inactivation of p53 and reactivation of telomerase expression are two of the most common events in human cancer. Results: Here we report the mechanisms used by p53, p63, and p73 to suppress telomerase expression. Conclusion: p53, p63, and p73 suppress telomerase expression through distinct pathways that involve E2F, E-box, c-Myc, and NF-YB. Significance: This study provides new insi...
متن کاملP-201: The Role of P53 Family Members in Infertility
Background: P53, p63, and p73 transcription factors which are belong to The p53 family, are conserved during evolution. They have important roles in many molecular and cellular functions, including tumor suppression, the development of epithelial cell layers, and the development of central nervous system and immune system. Studies show these molecules also have role in maintaining the genomic i...
متن کاملExpression and clinical implications of P53, P63, and P73 protein in malignant tumor of the parotid gland.
BACKGROUND/AIM To investigate the expression of P53, P63, and P73 proteins in malignant parotid gland tumors and adjacent nonneoplastic tissues and the association between the 3 proteins and their clinical characteristics. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 40 pairs of paraffin-embedded malignant parotid gland tumors and adjacent nonneoplastic tissues were collected. We detected P53, P63, and P...
متن کاملp73 and p63 sustain cellular growth by transcriptional activation of cell cycle progression genes.
Despite extensive studies on the role of tumor suppressor p53 protein and its homologues, p73 and p63, following their overexpression or cellular stress, very little is known about the regulation of the three proteins in cells during physiologic cell cycle progression. We report a role for p73 and p63 in supporting cellular proliferation through the transcriptional activation of the genes invol...
