Inhibition of growth of human prostate cancer xenograft by transfection of p53 gene: gene transfer by electroporation.

abstract：:The tumor suppressor protein p53 is a potent inducer of apoptosis in transformed cells. Hdm2 is an ubiquitin ligase (E3) that acts as a major regulator of p53 by promoting its ubiquitylation and proteasomal degradation. For this reason, inhibiting the E3 activity of Hdm2 has been proposed as a therapeutic approach for...
