p53 Expression in Non–Small Cell and Small Cell Lung Carcinomas: Relationship with Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen and Cigarette Smoking

Abstract: The p53 gene is a tumor suppressor gene which is located on band 13p of chromosome 17. It encodes a 53-kd nuclear phosphoprotein, and has been found in all mammalian cells. It is thought to play a role in the control of the cell cycle. The wild type p53 protein inhibits cell proliferation by arresting cells in the G1 phase of the cell cycle, and loss of this activity can lead to neoplastic transformation.1-3 Mutations in p53 gene are the most common genetic alterations in several human malignancies, including … Show more
