Abstract

Previous studies have suggested that expression of p53 in cancer cells can result in either growth arrest or apoptosis. Accordingly, expression of p53 in a series of colorectal cancer cell lines yielded growth arrest in some lines (A-lines) and apoptosis in others (D-lines). To investigate the basis of this difference, we evaluated the role of p21WAF1/Cip1, a known mediator of p53-induced growth arrest. Inactivation of p21 by homologous recombination converted an A-line to a D-line, suggesting that p21 could protect cells from apoptosis. However, examination of p53-induced p21 expression in naturally occurring D-lines and A-lines demonstrated that the induction of p21 could not account for the differential response to p53. Moreover, when a D-line was fused to an A-line, the resulting hybrid cells underwent apoptosis in response to p53, indicating that the apoptosis pathway was dominant over the growth arrest pathway. Therefore, the apoptotic response to p53 in colorectal cancer cells is modulated by at least two factors: p21-mediated growth arrest that can protect cells from apoptosis in A-cells, and trans-acting factors in D-cells that can overcome this protection, resulting in cell death.

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.
