The putative tumor suppressor gene p53 plays a key role in the regulation of cell proliferation. Functional loss of p53 protein through mutation or viral oncogene-complexing can result in p53 protein overexpression detectable by immunocytochemistry, which in turn has been associated with markers of

## Abstract Cyclooxygenaseβ2 (COXβ2) content is increased in many types of tumor cells. We have investigated the mechanism by which resveratrol, a stilbene that is proβapoptotic in many tumor cell lines, causes apoptosis in human head and neck squamous cell carcinoma UMSCCβ22B cells by a mechanism
