The senescent cell-derived inhibitor (sdi)-1 protein (p21 product) has been identified as a downstream mediator of the tumor suppressor p53 in the regulation of cell cycle progression through a G1 phase checkpoint. Given the importance of cell cycle inhibition for the treatment of restenosis, in this study we focused on the function of p21 gene in inhibiting proliferation of vascular smooth mus...
The cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21(WAF-1/CIP1/MDA-6) (p21) plays a key role in cell cycle inhibition and apoptosis, and is negatively regulated during cell proliferation. Extracellular matrices can affect cellular proliferation, but their effects on p21 have not been entirely elucidated. Herein, we explore the effects of the matrix glycoprotein fibronectin on p21 expression in human lung...
Alkylphospholipids (ALKs) are a novel class of antitumor agents with an unknown mechanism of action. The first ALK tested in the clinic, miltefosine, has been approved recently in Europe for the local treatment of patients with cutaneous metastasis. Perifosine, the only available oral ALK, is being studied currently in human cancer clinical trials. We have shown previously that perifosine induc...
p53-dependent and independent expression of p21 during cell growth, differentiation, and DNA damage.
Expression of p21 has been shown to be up-regulated by the p53 tumor suppressor gene in vitro in response to DNA-damaging agents. However, p21 expression can be regulated independently of p53, and here we show that expression of p21 in various tissues during development and in the adult mouse occurs in the absence of p53 function. However, most tissues tested did require p53 for p21 induction f...
The impact of human papilloma virus (HPV16) E7 proteins and retinoblastoma (RB) antisense oligonucleotides upon mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)-mediated inhibition of DNA synthesis via p21(Cip-1/WAF1/MDA6) (p21) was determined in primary hepatocytes. Prolonged activation of the MAPK pathway in p21(+/+) or p21(-/-) hepatocytes caused a large decrease and increase, respectively, in DNA sy...
BACKGROUND p21(WAF1/CIP1) is a well known cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor induced by various stress stimuli. Depending on the stress applied, p21 upregulation can either promote apoptosis or prevent against apoptotic injury. The stress-mediated induction of p21 involves not only its transcriptional activation but also its posttranscriptional regulation, mainly through stabilization of p21 mRN...
Hepatocytes rarely proliferate in the healthy adult liver. We explored the roles of the cyclin kinase inhibitors p21 and p27 in maintaining hepatocyte quiescence. p27 is expressed throughout the wild-type liver, but the related protein p21 was not detected. However, p21 was detected in livers of p27-deficient mice. Increased p21 protein levels did not result from an increase in p21 mRNA express...
The cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21WAF1/CIP1 is a major player in cell cycle control and it is mainly regulated at the transcriptional level. Whereas induction of p21 predominantly leads to cell cycle arrest, repression of p21 may have a variety of outcomes depending on the context. In this review, we concentrate on transcriptional repression of p21 by cellular and viral factors, and delv...
The biologic behavior and factors influencing the development of salivary gland mucoepidermoid carcinoma are not fully understood. Alteration of the cyclin-dependant kinase inhibitor p21(WAF) could cause uncontrolled proliferation leading to cancer. Thirty-five mucoepidermoid carcinomas were graded and immunohistochemically stained for p21(WAF). The percentage of positive tumor cells was determ...
A key determinant of p53-mediated cell fate following various DNA damage modalities is p21WAF1/CIP1 expression, with elevated p21 expression triggering cell cycle arrest and repressed p21 expression promoting apoptosis. We show that under pro-death DNA damage conditions, the DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PKCS) is recruited to the p21 promoter where it forms a protein complex with p53. The D...
