Thus, upon activation by ActD, AKT becomes an inducer of
p53 tumor suppression instead of being a survival factor, as consistently shown in human embryonic kidney cell lines (293 and 293T), human hepatoma cell line (HepG2), and mouse hepatoma cell line (Hepa - 1c1c7).

«Most other
tumors have a mutant
p53, but in these testicular cell
tumors, the
p53 is functioning properly, and the drugs used for testicular cancer appear to work in concert with
p53's
tumor suppression function to kill the cancer cells.»
It can be proposed that p21 contributes to mediate
p53 - dependent
tumor suppression in some
tumor types, which would include histiocytic sarcomas, hemangiomas, B - cell lymphomas, and lung carcinomas, but not in other
tumor types, particularly spontaneous or radiation - induced T - cell lymphomas.
Our observations demonstrate that p21 contributes to
tumor suppression, albeit to a lesser extent than
p53.
P21 is closely related to the
tumor suppressor gene
P53: cancer
suppression and enhanced regeneration are frequently found to be opposite sides of the same coin.
We conclude that p21 plays a significant role in
tumor suppression, which is more important than that of Bax but weaker than that of
p53 or its upstream regulators ATM and p19ARF.
PP2A mediates diosmin
p53 activation to block HA22T cell proliferation and
tumor growth in xenografted nude mice through PI3K - Akt - MDM2 signaling
suppression.
