Clinical Significance of Mutant P53 Protein Expression in Lung Adenocarcinoma
Background and objective P53 is a tumor protein that acts as a tumor suppressor. The mutation of P53 may cause loss of tumor suppressor functions and gain of functions favoring cellular proliferation and apoptosis inhibition. The clinical implications of

Background: Overexpression of DNA 5’-cytosine-methyltransferases (DNMTs), which silence genes including tumor suppressor genes, is involved in many cancers. However, the mechanism of DNMT overexpression remains mostly unclear.

Erioflorin stabilizes the tumor suppressor Pdcd4 by inhibiting its interaction with the E3-ligase β-TrCP1 [PDF]
Loss of the tumor suppressor Pdcd4 was reported for various tumor entities and proposed as a prognostic marker in tumorigenesis. We previously characterized decreased Pdcd4 protein stability in response to mitogenic stimuli, which resulted from p70S6K1 ...

Molecular Characterization of ‘p53 Family Network’ in Human Head and Neck Cancer and Anti-EGFR Therapy [PDF]
Understanding of p53 family protein (p53, p63 and p73) networks in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), can positively influence in cancer screening, diagnosis, treatment and prevention.

Long noncoding RNAs: p53's secret weapon in the fight against cancer?
p53 regulates the expression of hundreds of genes. Recent surprising observations indicate that no single protein-coding gene controls the tumor suppressor effects of p53.

The multifunctional protein E4F1 links P53 to lipid metabolism in adipocytes
The p53 tumor suppressor is also a regulator of metabolism, but the mechanisms controlling p53-associated metabolic activities remain poorly understood.

Protein adduction causes non-mutational inhibition of p53 tumor suppressor
Summary: p53 is a key tumor suppressor that is frequently mutated in human tumors. In this study, we investigated how p53 is regulated in precancerous lesions prior to mutations in the p53 gene.

Dissection of the functional interaction between p53 and the embryonic proto-oncoprotein PAX3 [PDF]
Studies from murine embryogenesis and cancer cells derived from human melanomas have identified a critical role for the transcription factor PAX3 in the suppression of p53 protein accumulation and p53-dependent apoptosis.
