Abstract:More than half of human malignant tumors harbor TP53 gene mutations, most of which are point mutations within the DNA-binding domain of TP53, resulting in mutant p53 (mutp53) protein stabilization and accumulation in the cell and enhanced tumor progression. Depletion of mutp53 through the autophagy or proteasome pathway is considered the most direct strategy to target mutp53 for tumor treatment. However, due to the lack of specific autophagy receptors and the insufficient level of autophagy in tumor cells, tar… Show more
