  2. p53 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P53

    Suppression of p53 plays important roles in cancer stem cell phenotype, induced pluripotent stem cells and other stem cell roles and behaviors, such as blastema formation. Cells with decreased levels of p53 have been shown to reprogram into stem cells with a much greater efficiency than normal cells.

  3. Cellular senescence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_senescence

    Cellular senescence is a phenomenon characterized by the cessation of cell division. [1][2][3] In their experiments during the early 1960s, Leonard Hayflick and Paul Moorhead found that normal human fetal fibroblasts in culture reach a maximum of approximately 50 cell population doublings before becoming senescent. [4][5][6] This process is ...

  4. Induced pluripotent stem cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induced_pluripotent_stem_cell

    Induced pluripotent stem cells (also known as iPS cells or iPSCs) are a type of pluripotent stem cell that can be generated directly from a somatic cell. The iPSC technology was pioneered by Shinya Yamanaka and Kazutoshi Takahashi in Kyoto, Japan, who together showed in 2006 that the introduction of four specific genes (named Myc, Oct3/4, Sox2 ...

  5. p53 upregulated modulator of apoptosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P53_upregulated_modulator...

    The p53 upregulated modulator of apoptosis (PUMA) also known as Bcl-2-binding component 3 (BBC3), is a pro- apoptotic protein, member of the Bcl-2 protein family. [5][6] In humans, the Bcl-2-binding component 3 protein is encoded by the BBC3 gene. [5][6] The expression of PUMA is regulated by the tumor suppressor p53.

  6. Epithelial–mesenchymal transition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epithelial–mesenchymal...

    The epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a process by which epithelial cells lose their cell polarity and cellcell adhesion, and gain migratory and invasive properties to become mesenchymal stem cells; these are multipotent stromal cells that can differentiate into a variety of cell types. EMT is essential for numerous developmental ...

  7. Suicide gene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suicide_gene

    In the field of genetics, a suicide gene is a gene that will cause a cell to kill itself through the process of apoptosis (programmed cell death). Activation of a suicide gene can cause death through a variety of pathways, but one important cellular "switch" to induce apoptosis is the p53 protein. Stimulation or introduction (through gene ...
