A senescence program controlled by p53 and p16INK4a contributes to the outcome of cancer therapy.

TL;DR: It is shown that primary murine lymphomas also respond to chemotherapy by engaging a senescence program controlled by p53 and p16(INK4a), and mice bearing tumors capable of drug-induced senescENCE have a much better prognosis following chemotherapy than those harboring tumors with senescences defects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Whole-body optical imaging of green fluorescent protein-expressing tumors and metastases

TL;DR: The simple, noninvasive, and highly selective imaging of growing tumors, made possible by strong GFP fluorescence, enables the detailed imaging of tumor growth and metastasis formation and should facilitate studies of modulators of cancer growth including inhibition by potential chemotherapeutic agents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dissecting p53 tumor suppressor functions in vivo

TL;DR: It is shown that disruption of apoptosis downstream of p53 by Bcl2 or a dominant-negative caspase 9 confers-like p53 loss-a selective advantage, and completely alleviates pressure to inactivate p53 during lymphomagenesis, which is the only p53 function selected against during lymphoma development.
