1 Metformin causes cancer cell death through downregulation of p53-dependent differentiated embryo chondrocyte 1. Metformin tumor protein p53 Homo sapiens
2 We later clarified the effect of metformin on p53 protein stability using transient transfection and cycloheximide chase analyses. Metformin tumor protein p53 Homo sapiens
3 RESULTS: We observed that metformin represses cell cycle progression, thereby inducing subG1 populations, and had induced apoptosis through downregulation of p53 protein and a target gene, differentiated embryo chondrocyte 1 (DEC1). Metformin tumor protein p53 Homo sapiens
4 Examination of the mechanisms underlying metformin-induced HeLa cell death revealed that reduced stability of p53 in metformin-treated cells leads to decreases in DEC1 and induction of apoptosis. Metformin tumor protein p53 Homo sapiens
5 Examination of the mechanisms underlying metformin-induced HeLa cell death revealed that reduced stability of p53 in metformin-treated cells leads to decreases in DEC1 and induction of apoptosis. Metformin tumor protein p53 Homo sapiens
6 CONCLUSION: The involvement of DEC1 provides new insight into the positive or negative functional roles of p53 in the metformin-induced cytotoxicity in tumor cells. Metformin tumor protein p53 Homo sapiens
