Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the p53 tumor suppressor gene have recently been reported to have an impact on clinical trials of several human tumors, including head and neck cancers. To confirm the p53-dependence of X-ray induced apoptosis, we used two cell lines derived from a human squamous cell carcinoma (SAS) with identical genetic backgrounds, except for the p53 gene, which are SAS/mp53 cells with mp53 and SAS/neo cells with...
