Acquired expression of transcriptionally active p73 in hepatocellular carcinoma cells (2001)
Journal Article
Sayan, A., Sayan, B., Findikli, N., & Ozturk, M. (2001). Acquired expression of transcriptionally active p73 in hepatocellular carcinoma cells. Oncogene, 20, 5111-5117. https://doi.org/10.1038/sj.onc.1204669

p53 and p73 proteins activate similar target genes and induce apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. However, p53, but not p73 is considered a tumour-suppressor gene. Unlike p53, p73 deficiency in mice does not lead to a cancer-prone phenotype, and p73 gen... Read More about Acquired expression of transcriptionally active p73 in hepatocellular carcinoma cells.

The manners in which motorcyclists and road safety experts assess motorcycling diverge widely. Experts view it as an extremely risky venture and imply that only the foolhardy would engage in it. Our own survey research appears to support this view. A...
