p53 protein is a transcription factor involved in multiple tumor-suppressor activities including cell cycle control and apoptosis. TP53 gene is frequently mutated in glioblastoma, suggesting the importance of inactivation of this gene product in gliomagenesis. Restoration of p53 function in glioblas

## Abstract The aminothiol WR1065, the active metabolite of the cytoprotector amifostine, exerts its antimutagenic effects through freeโradical scavenging and other unknown mechanisms. In an earlier report, we showed that WR1065 activates wildโtype p53 in MCFโ7 cells, leading to p53โdependent arres
The p53 null HL-60 cell line was transfected with plasmids coding for either the wild-type p53 or mutant p53 gene. The stable expression of wild-type p53 resulted in a significant increase in sensitivity to the topoisomerase II poisons etoposide and doxorubicin, but not to the topoisomerase II inhib
## Abstract The __p53__ gene undergoes rearrangement in a high percentage of osteosarcomas, resulting in loss of its expression. A __p53__โnull murine osteosarcoma cell line F6 was transfected with either a wildโtype or a mutant __p53__ gene. Stably transfected cell lines were obtained, and their d
