The human ARF tumor suppressor senses blastema activity and suppresses epimorphic tissue regeneration
16 Nov 2015
Abstract excerpt
The control of proliferation and differentiation by tumor suppressor genes suggests that evolution of divergent tumor suppressor repertoires could influence species' regenerative capacity. To directly test that premise, we humanized the zebrafish p53 pathway by introducing regulatory and coding sequences of the human tumor suppressor ARF into the zebrafish genome. ARF was dormant during development, in uninjured...
