Abstract excerpt
Inactivation of p53-mediated cell death pathways is a central component of cancer progression. ASPP2 (apoptosis stimulated protein of p53-2) is a p53 binding protein that specially stimulates pro-apoptosis function of p53. Down-regulation of ASPP2 is observed in many human cancers and is associated with poor prognosis and metastasis. In this study, ASPP2 was found to enhance L-OHP-induced apoptosis in HCT116...
