Roles for p53 in growth arrest and apoptosis: putting on the brakes after genotoxic stress

Abstract: The tumor suppressor gene p53 plays a major role in regulation of the mammalian cellular stress response, in part through the transcriptional activation of genes involved in cell cycle control, DNA repair, and apoptosis. Many factors contribute to control of the activation of p53, and the downstream response to its activation may also vary depending on the cellular enviroment or other modifying factors in the cell. The complexity of the p53 response makes this an ideal system for application of newly emerging … Show more

“…These include the Rb and p53 proteins which are targeted by the viral E7 and E6 genes respectively (Dyson et al, 1989;Werness et al, 1990). The p53 tumour suppressor protein plays a pivotal role in cellular responses to stress factors such as DNA damage or hypoxia, principally through an induction of either cell cycle arrest or apoptosis (reviewed in Amundsen et al, 1998). An important mediator of the G1 arrest is the p21/WAF1 protein, a cdk inhibitor which is induced by transcriptional activation by activated p53 (El-Deiry et al, 1993;Petrocelli et al, 1996).…”

“…Since the pattern of cellular response to ST1926 involving p53 and drug-induced cell cycle arrest at G1 and S phases were reminiscent of the cellular response to DNA-damaging agents, 12 we investigated the effects of the drug on DNA integrity by the alkaline elution technique. Following 6 h exposure to drug concentrations in a range between the IC 50 and the IC 90 , the two cell lines exhibited a comparable extent of single-strand DNA breaks ( Figure 6).…”

“…Activation of the p53 protein is observed following stress situations, such as DNA damage (Levine, 1997), oxidative stress (Renzing et al, 1996), microtubule disrupting agents (Jimenez et al, 1999), and hypoxia (Graeber et al, 1996). Elevated p53 activity leads to cell cycle arrest or apoptosis, depending on the cell type and the intensity of the stimulus (Amundson et al, 1998;Levine, 1997). Cell cycle arrest following p53 activation may occur at the G1/S or at the G2/M check points (Levine, 1997).…”
