Abstract excerpt
Human lymphoblastoid cells were transfected with expression vectors containing p53 cDNA mutated at either codon 135 or 246. The cells were subjected to cisplatin treatment or gamma-radiation and observed for changes in the cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. We found that compared to the parental cell line, cells overexpressing mutant p53 (either 246val or 135ser) exhibited decreased apoptosis in response to...
