Topic: p53 signaling pathway

As a tumor suppressor, p53 is one of the most commonly mutated genes in human cancers. Due to its important role in tumor suppression, p53 has attracted great interest from researchers in drug development. As a transcription factor, p53 is directly or indirectly involved in regulating many genes, including cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, senescence, and DNA repair. In recent years, p53 has become one of the most important and attractive drug targets in cancer treatment. This article will review re...
