Mutant p53R270H drives altered metabolism and increased invasion in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma [PDF]
Pancreatic cancer is characterized by nearly universal activating mutations in KRAS. Among other somatic mutations, TP53 is mutated in more than 75% of human pancreatic tumors.

Small molecule induced reactivation of mutant p53 in cancer cells [PDF]
The p53 cancer mutant Y220C is an excellent paradigm for rescuing the function of conformationally unstable p53 mutants because it has a unique surface crevice that can be targeted by small-molecule stabilizers.

Mutant p53 rescue and modulation of p53 redox state [PDF]
The p53 tumor suppressor is a key regulator of cell growth and survival upon various forms of cellular stress. p53 is a redox-regulated transcription factor that binds specifically to DNA and activates transcription of target genes. The core domain of p53 holds a zinc atom that protects p53 from oxidation and is critical for DNA binding.

Novel therapeutic targets are needed to better treat osteosarcoma, which is the most common bone malignancy. We previously developed mouse osteosarcoma cells, designated AX (accelerated bone formation) cells from bone marrow stromal cells.

Zn(II)-curc targets p53 in thyroid cancer cells [PDF]
P53 mutation is a common event in many cancers, including thyroid carcinoma. Defective p53 activity promotes cancer resistance to therapies and a more malignant phenotype, acquiring oncogenic functions.

Mutant p53 proteins impart changes in cellular behavior and function through interactions with proteins that alter gene expression. The milieu of intracellular proteins available to interact with mutant p53 is context specific and changes with disease, cell type, and environmental conditions.

Complementation of two mutant p53: Implications for loss of heterozygosity in cancer [PDF]
Remarkably, a cancer cell rarely possesses two mutant p53 proteins. Instead, mutation of one allele is usually associated with loss of the second p53 allele. Why do not two mutant p53 co-exist?

Mutant p53 stimulates cell invasion through an interaction with Rad21 in human ovarian cancer cells
Missense mutations of TP53 are extremely common, and mutant p53 accumulation and gain-of-function play crucial roles in human ovarian cancer. Here, we investigated the role of mutant p53 in cell migration and invasion as well as its underlying molecular ...

Disarming mutant p53 oncogenic function
In the last decade intensive research has confirmed the long standing hypothesis that some p53 point mutants acquire novel activities able to cooperate with oncogenic mechanisms. Particular attention has attracted the ability of several such mutants to actively promote the development of aggressive and metastatic tumors in vivo.
