“…In addition to ionizing radiation (Hildesheim et al, 2002;Klokov et al, 2012;Rashi-Elkeles et al, 2011), p53 activity can also be induced by oncogenic stress (Feng et al, 2006;Yan et al, 2005), oxidative stress (Achanta and Huang, 2004;Sinthupibulyakit et al, 2010), signaling cytokines (Doman et al, 1999;Kim et al, 2005), changes in temperature Michalovitz et al, 1990;Zhang et al, 1994), hypoxia (Long et al, 1997;Sano et al, 2007;Sutton et al, 2008), chemotherapeutic agents (Chuang et al, 2012;el-Deiry et al, 1994;Lowe et al, 1993;Wang et al, 2005) and biomechanical stress (Leri et al, 1998(Leri et al, , 2000Liao et al, 2004). Molecular tools that reveal the activities of p53 would help deepen our understanding of many cellular processes.…”
