Abstract excerpt
TP53 is the most frequently mutated gene in human cancers, with significant diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic implications in haematological malignancies. The TP53 gene encodes the p53 protein, a central regulator of cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, and DNA repair. Loss-of-function TP53 mutations lead to resistance to chemotherapy and poor outcomes across both myeloid and lymphoid neoplasms. Recent advances in...
