Wild-Type p53 Gene Expression Induces Granulocytic Differentiation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Overexpression of wild-type p53 gene in malignant cell iines has been shown to inhibit cell proliferation in a number of cases. However, endogenous p53 protein seems to play little role in normal cell-cycle control as suggested by the normal development of p53 null mice, and by the low p53 protein levels expressed in most cell types. Recently, increased expression of endogenous p53 protein has been observed during the cellular response to DNA damage, as well as during differentiation of human hematopoietic cells. To study the role of the p53 gene in hematopoietic differentiation, we introduced the wild-type p53 gene or the temperature-sensitive p53(Va1135) mutant into p53-deficient HL-60 promyelo-

متن کاملThe Effect of Wild Type P53 Gene Transfer on Growth Properties and Tumorigenicity of PANC-1 Tumor Cell Line
The p53 protein function is essential for the maintenance of the nontumorigenic cell phenotype. Pancreatic tumor cells show a very high frequency of p53 mutation. To determine if restoration of wild type p53 function can be used to eliminate the tumorigenic phenotype in these cells, pancreatic tumor cell lines, PANC-1 and HTB80, differing in p53 status were stably transfected with exogenous wil...
متن کاملTransfection of wild-type but not mutant p53 induces early monocytic differentiation in HL60 cells and increases their sensitivity to stress.
HL60 cells, which lack the p53 gene due to a deletion, were used as an in vitro model system to study the effect of wild-type p53 gene expression on hematopoietic differentiation. We transfected HL60 cells with wild-type p53 and two mutant p53 cDNAs encoding the Val to Ala mutation at codon 143 and the Arg to Trp mutation at codon 248. Flow cytometry, growth, and cytochemical analysis for alpha...
متن کاملWild Type p53 Gene Transfer Increases Chemosensitivity and Apoptotic Response of PANC-1 Pancreatic Tumor Cell Line
The effect of p53 gene therapy on chemosensitivity and apoptotic response of PANC-1 tumor cells, which express high amount of mutant p53, to cancer chemotherapeutic agents of Etoposide and Doxorubicin was investigated. Comparison of the chemosensitivity of PANC-1 cells to its wild type p53 transfectants showed that wt-p53 expressing transfectants are more sensitive to both Etoposide and Doxorub...
متن کاملExpression of the p53 Tumor Suppressor Gene Induces Differentiation and Promotes Induction of Differentiation
Leukemic U-937 cells, which lack normal p53, were stably transfected with a temperature-sensitive mutant of p53 to investigate the consequences for growth and differentiation. On induction of wild-type p53 activity at the permissive temperature, some of these cells underwent maturation as judged by the capacity for oxidative burst and the appearance of monocyte related cell surface molecules. M...
