Nitric oxide-induced genotoxicity, mitochondrial damage, and apoptosis in human lymphoblastoid cells expressing wild-type and mutant p53
22 Jul 2002
Abstract excerpt
Nitric oxide (NO(*)) is mutagenic and, under appropriate conditions of exposure, also induces apoptosis in many in vitro and in vivo experimental models. Biochemical and cellular mechanisms through which NO(*) induces apoptosis are incompletely understood, but involve p53/mitochondria-dependent signaling pathways. In this study, we exposed human lymphoblastoid cells harboring either wild-type (TK6 cells) or...
