− | The ''TP53'' gene is well-known tumor suppressor gene that has been implicated in many cancer types [1]. The ''TP53'' protein product is involved in regulating the cell cycle pathway and can prevent replication if cell damage has occurred [2]. Deletions, LOH, and loss of function (LOF) mutations have been associated with ''TP53''. These alterations often confer a poor prognosis and chemoresistance.
| + | The ''TP53'' protein product is involved in regulating the cell cycle pathway and can prevent replication if cell damage has occurred [1, 2]. ''TP53'' has been implicated in many cancer types, and is classically considered the prototypic tumor suppressor gene [3, 4]. Inactivating mutations resulting in loss of p53 function, including deletions, LOH, and loss of function (LOF) alterations often confer a poor prognosis and chemoresistance. Alternatively, gain-of-function mutations promoting the expression and stability of the p53 protein in the nucleus can also lead to oncogenic effects, including genomic instability and excessive cell proliferation [5]. |
