The p53 family in differentiation and tumorigenesis

Stiewe, Thorsten·2007·Nature Reviews Cancer

Abstract

The role of p53 as a tumour suppressor is generally attributed to its ability to stop the proliferation of precancerous cells by inducing cell-cycle arrest or apoptosis. The relatives and evolutionary predecessors of p53 - p63 and p73 - share the tumour-suppressor activity of p53 to some extent, but also have essential functions in embryonic development and differentiation control. Recent evidence indicates that these ancestral functions in differentiation control contribute to the tumour-suppressor activity that the p53 family is famous for.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • p53 phosphorylated at Ser15 occurs in response to DNA damage and can mediate cell cycle arrest at G0-G1 by transactivation of p21.

    “In accordance, we observe a significant increase in the protein levels of p53 (Ser 15 ; Fig. 4A), which occurs in response to DNA damage and can mediate cell cycle arrest at G 0 -G 1 by transactivation of p21 (19).”
  • TAp63 is a homologue of p53 and mediates both cell cycle arrest and apoptosis.

    “TAp63 is a homologue of p53 and is known to mediate both cell cycle arrest and apoptosis (19,38).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
