Cell fate decision mediated by p53 pulses
Open accessAbstract
The tumor suppressor p53 plays a crucial role in cellular response to various stresses. Recent experiments have shown that p53 level exhibits a series of pulses after DNA damage caused by ionizing radiation (IR). However, how the p53 pulses govern cell survival and death remains unclear. Here, we develop an integrated model with four modules for the p53 network and explore the mechanism for cell fate decision based on the dynamics of the network. By numerical simulations, the following processes are characterized. First, DNA repair proteins bind to IR-induced double-strand breaks, forming complexes, which are then detected by ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM). Activated ATM initiates the p53 oscillator to produce pulses. Consequently, the target genes of p53 are selectively induced to control cell fate. We propose that p53 promotes the repair of minor DNA damage but suppresses the repair of severe damage. We demonstrate that cell fate is determined by the number of p53 pulses relying on the extent of DNA damage. At low damage levels, few p53 pulses evoke cell cycle arrest by inducing p21 and promote cell survival, whereas at high damage levels, sustained p53 pulses trigger apoptosis by inducing p53AIP1. We find that p53 can effectively maintain genomic integrity by regulating the efficiency and fidelity of DNA repair. We also show that stochasticity in the generation and repair of DNA damage leads to variability in cell fate. These findings are consistent with experimental observations and advance our understanding of the dynamics and functions of the p53 network.

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.
