Estrogen Receptor α Inhibits p53-Mediated Transcriptional Repression: Implications for the Regulation of Apoptosis
15 Aug 2007
Abstract excerpt
Estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha) and tumor suppressor protein p53 exert opposing effects on cellular proliferation. As a transcriptional regulator, p53 is capable of activating or repressing various target genes. We have previously reported that ERalpha binds directly to p53, leading to down-regulation of transcriptional activation by p53. In addition to transcriptional activation, transcriptional repression of...
