The changes in the p53 protein across the animal kingdom pointing to its involvement in longevity

2020-05-07

Abstract excerpt

Recently, the quest for the mythical fountain of youth has turned into extensive research programs aiming to extend the healthy lifespan in humans. Despite advances in our understanding of the aging process, the surprisingly extended lifespan and cancer resistance of some animal species remains unexplained. The p53 protein plays a crucial role in tumor suppression and in tissue homeostasis and aging. Long-lived, c...
