Functional ribosome biogenesis is a prerequisite for p53 destabilization: impact of chemotherapy on nucleolar functions and RNA metabolism

Abstract: Abstract:The production and processing of ribosomal RNA is a complex and well-coordinated nucleolar process for ribosome biogenesis. Progress in understanding nucleolar structure and function has lead to the unexpected discovery of the nucleolus as a highly sensitive sensor of cellular stress and an important regulator of the tumor suppressor p53. Inhibition of ribosomal RNA metabolism has been shown to activate a signaling pathway for p53 induction. This review elucidates the potential of classical and recent… Show more

“…It is well established that inhibition of rRNA maturation leads to impaired ribosome biogenesis and induction of nucleolar stress32, which may be evidenced by small nucleoli, nucleolar disorganization33 and p53 stabilization3234. Indeed, immunofluorescent stainings of PES1 (Fig.…”

“…Burger et al . observed that inhibition of ribosome biogenesis, including rRNA metabolic processes, by the chemotherapeutic drugs flavopiridol and 5-fluorouracil could potentially increase the efficacy of therapeutic treatment in human fibrosarcoma23. In addition, chemotherapeutic drugs induce DNA damage, which is a mechanism that allows cells to repair damage and confer resistance to anticancer drugs24.…”

“…The nucleolus forms during G 1 phase around rDNA clusters termed nucleolar organizing regions (1). The rRNA precursors are transcribed by RNA polymerase I, assembled, and processed by the ribosome biogenesis machinery in a tightly regulated mechanism (2,3).…”
