Abstract excerpt
We studied the role of p53 gene in the biophysics and biology in murine erythroleukemia cell line (MEL), with the goal of understanding the influence of this tumor suppressor gene on the deformability and metastasis of tumor cells. Experiments were performed on MEL and p53-transfected MEL (MEL-M with mutant p53 gene and MEL-W with wild-type p53 gene). The cell growth curves indicated that the over-expression of...
