  2. Embryonic stem cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embryonic_stem_cell

    For example ESCs have been differentiated into insulin-producing cells, [26] and researchers at Harvard University were able to produce large quantities of pancreatic beta cells from ESCs. [ 27 ] An article published in the European Heart Journal describes a translational process of generating human embryonic stem cell-derived cardiac ...

  3. p53 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P53

    p53, also known as Tumor protein P53, cellular tumor antigen p53 (UniProt name), or transformation-related protein 53 (TRP53) is a regulatory protein that is often mutated in human cancers. The p53 proteins (originally thought to be, and often spoken of as, a single protein) are crucial in vertebrates , where they prevent cancer formation. [ 5 ]

    Embryoid body: hESCs in culture spontaneously form ball-like embryo-like structures termed "embryoid bodies", which consist of a core of mitotically active and differentiating hESCs and a periphery of fully differentiated cells from all three germ layers. iPSCs also form embryoid bodies and have peripheral differentiated cells.

    However unlike mESCs, hESCs have a functional G1 phase. hESCs show that the activities of Cyclin E/Cdk2 and Cyclin A/Cdk2 complexes are cell cycle-dependent and the Rb checkpoint in G1 is functional. [39] ESCs are also characterized by G1 checkpoint non-functionality, even though the G1 checkpoint is crucial for maintaining genomic stability.

  6. P53 p63 p73 family - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P53_p63_p73_family

    The p53 p63 p73 family is a family of tumor suppressor genes. [1] [2] This gene family codes the proteins: p53; TP73L (also known as "p63") p73; They are sometimes considered part of a "p53 family." When overexpressed, these proteins are known to be involved in tumor pathogenesis. [3]

  7. TP53BP1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TP53BP1

    Tumor suppressor p53-binding protein 1 also known as p53-binding protein 1 or 53BP1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TP53BP1 gene. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] [ 7 ] Clinical significance

  8. Stem-cell line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stem-cell_line

    The fact that the blastocyst is destroyed during the process has raised controversy and ethical concerns. Embryonic stem cells are pluripotent, meaning they can differentiate to form all cell types in the body. In vitro, embryonic stem cells can be cultured under defined conditions to keep them in their pluripotent state, or they can be ...

  9. 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.
