Abstract
The p53 tumor suppressor gene lies at the crossroads of multiple cellular response pathways that control a cell's fate in response to endogenous or exogenous stresses. Positive and negative regulatory loops both upstream and downstream of p53 cooperate to finely tune its functions as a transcription factor, a DNA damage sensor, and possibly, a protein-assembly scaffold. Through this plethora of activities, p53 is a major determinant of cell survival and a safeguard against genetic instability. Functional inactivation of p53 pathways through genetic and epigenetic events affecting the p53 gene itself and/or its interacting partners occur with a high frequency in lung cancer. The p53 mutational spectrum provides molecular evidence of the etiology of lung cancer and supports abundant epidemiological data indicating the role of tobacco smoke in the causation of this disease.
