Signaling to the p53 Tumor Suppressor through Pathways Activated by Genotoxic and Non-genotoxic Stresses
نویسندگان
چکیده
The p53 tumor suppressor is a tetrameric transcription factor that is posttranslational modified at -1 8 different sites by phosphorylation, acetylation, or sumoylation in response to various cellular stress conditions. Specific posttranslational modifications, or groups of modifications, that result from the activation of different stress-induced signaling pathways are thought to modulate p53 activity to regulate cell fate by inducing cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, or cellular senescence. Here we review the posttranslational modifications to p53 and the pathways that produce them in response to both genotoxic and non-genotoxic stresses.

p53 and Ceramide as Collaborators in the Stress Response
The sphingolipid ceramide mediates various cellular processes in response to several extracellular stimuli. Some genotoxic stresses are able to induce p53-dependent ceramide accumulation leading to cell death. However, in other cases, in the absence of the tumor suppressor protein p53, apoptosis proceeds partly due to the activity of this "tumor suppressor lipid", ceramide. In the current revie...
متن کاملCytokines shape chemotherapy-induced and ‘bystander' senescence
morphology and other phenotypic features characteristic of cellular senescence can be triggered by telomere attrition (replicative senescence) and various stresses such as activated oncogenes or genotoxic treatments (premature senescence). Physiological relevance of cellular senescence is apparent from its emerging roles in aging, in tumor pathogenesis as an inducible barrier to tumor progressi...
متن کاملp53 Target Genes Sestrin1 and Sestrin2 Connect Genotoxic Stress and mTOR Signaling
The tumor suppressor p53 is activated upon genotoxic and oxidative stress and in turn inhibits cell proliferation and growth through induction of specific target genes. Cell growth is positively regulated by mTOR, whose activity is inhibited by the TSC1:TSC2 complex. Although genotoxic stress has been suggested to inhibit mTOR via p53-mediated activation of mTOR inhibitors, the precise mechanis...
متن کاملThe p53 tumor suppressor targets a novel regulator of G protein signaling.
Heterotrimeric G proteins transduce multiple growth-factor-receptor-initiated and intracellular signals that may lead to activation of the mitogen-activated or stress-activated protein kinases. Herein we report on the identification of a novel p53 target gene (A28-RGS14) that is induced in response to genotoxic stress and encodes a novel member of a family of regulators of G protein signaling (...
متن کاملGenome-wide analysis of p53 under hypoxic conditions.
Hypoxia is an important nongenotoxic stress that modulates the tumor suppressor activity of p53 during malignant progression. In this study, we investigated how genotoxic and nongenotoxic stresses regulate p53 association with chromatin, p53 transcriptional activity, and p53-dependent apoptosis. We found that genotoxic and nongenotoxic stresses result in the accumulation and binding of the p53 ...
