Hsp27 Protects Adenocarcinoma Cells from UV-Induced Apoptosis by Akt and p21-Dependent Pathways of Survival
22 Sept 2010
Abstract excerpt
Transcriptional activation of p53 target genes, due to DNA damage, causes either apoptosis or survival by cell cycle arrest and DNA repair. However, the regulators of the choice between cell death and survival signaling have not been completely elucidated. Here, we report that human adenocarcinoma cells (MCF-7) survive UV-induced DNA damage by heat shock protein 27 (Hsp27)-assisted Akt/p21...
