A team of researchers at VCU Massey Comprehensive Cancer Center has identified a new pathway through which mutations in the tumor suppressor p53 gene—found very frequently in human tumors—hijack DNA ...
A research team at the University of Konstanz, led by toxicologist Ivano Amelio, has demonstrated how differently individual mutations of the tumor suppressor p53 affect pancreatic carcinomas. When ...
The gene p53 acts as a tumor suppressor and is often called the guardian of the genome. This gene is central to maintaining genomic stability, which prevents mutations from accumulating and leading to ...
A new research paper was published in Oncotarget, Volume 16, on February 18, 2025, titled "Robust p53 phenotypes and prospective downstream targets in telomerase-immortalized human cells." Researchers ...
In a groundbreaking review published in Current Molecular Pharmacology, a team led by Dr. Jhi Biau Foo from Taylor’s University unveils the pivotal role of mutant p53 (mutp53) in driving cancer ...
Molecular model of the tumor suppressor protein p53 (beige) bound to a molecule of DNA (red and blue). P53 maintains genomic stability by controlling cell division, repairing DNA damage, and ...
Approximately 25-30% of lung cancer patients lack mutations targeted by current therapies, necessitating novel approaches. New targets, including MTAP deletions, SMARC4, and p53 mutations, show ...
Autologous T-Cell Therapies in Solid Tumor Malignancies: Current Landscape and Future Opportunities Histology-agnostic therapies: by focusing on common mutations across various cancers, this approach ...
A team of researchers at VCU Massey Comprehensive Cancer Center has identified a new pathway through which mutations in the tumor suppressor p53 gene—found very frequently in human tumors—hijack DNA ...
