Repression of IR-Inducible Clusterin Expression by the p53 Tumor Suppressor Protein
20 Jul 2003
Abstract excerpt
The clusterin (CLU) protein has been reported to have both cytoprotective and cytotoxic activities. Previous data from our lab suggest that the secretory form of CLU (sCLU) is cytoprotective and induced after very low, nontoxic doses of ionizing radiation (IR: >0.02 Gy), while a nuclear form is cytotoxic. Cells must presumably suppress sCLU to stimulate cell death, however, factors regulating the stress-inducible...
