Abstract excerpt
Induction of apoptosis is a function of external stimuli and cellular gene expression. Many cells respond to DNA damage by the induction of apoptosis, which depends on a functional p53 protein and is signaled by elevation of p53 levels. We have investigated the response of immortalized human keratinocytes (HaCaT) bearing mutated alleles of p53 to genotoxic stress and the effect of human papillomavirus (HPV) 16 E6...
