These cells also exhibit an increased P53 expression likely due to a deficit in the tumor suppressor gene.
For example, tumor suppressor genes help keep cancer from developing.
The p53 p63 p73 family is a family of tumor suppressor genes.
Many types of blastoma have been linked to a mutation in tumor suppressor genes.
Other factors are mutations in or total loss of tumor suppressor genes.
Studies suggest this is a tumor suppressor gene.
The treatment involves injection of a tumor suppressor gene that is known as p53.
This condition includes also the inactivation of specific tumor suppressor genes (see below).
Via this mechanism, tumor suppressor genes can be deactivated, leading to cancer.
Some cancers develop when a cell's tumor suppressor genes get knocked out of action by a mutation.
