2 Pifithrin-alpha alters p53 post-translational modifications pattern and differentially inhibits p53 target genes. pifithrin tumor protein p53 Homo sapiens
3 Pifithrin-alpha (PFT-alpha) is a small molecule which has been widely used as a specific inhibitor of p53 transcription activity. pifithrin tumor protein p53 Homo sapiens
4 Pifithrin-alpha (PFT-alpha) is a small molecule which has been widely used as a specific inhibitor of p53 transcription activity. pifithrin tumor protein p53 Homo sapiens
5 PFT-alpha has also been described to display potent p53-independent activity in cells. pifithrin tumor protein p53 Homo sapiens
6 PFT-alpha displayed a very limited effect on p53-dependent transcription upon its activation by Nutlin-3. pifithrin tumor protein p53 Homo sapiens
7 Moreover, PFT-alpha inhibitory effect on transcription was highly dependent on the nature of the p53 target gene. pifithrin tumor protein p53 Homo sapiens
8 PFT-alpha attenuated post-translational modifications of p53 without affecting total p53 protein level. pifithrin tumor protein p53 Homo sapiens
9 Finally, we found that PFT-alpha can decrease the level of intracellular reactive oxygen species through activation of an aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR)-Nrf2 axis in a p53-independent manner. pifithrin tumor protein p53 Homo sapiens
10 In conclusion, PFT-alpha inhibits only some aspects of p53 function, therefore it should be used with extreme caution to study p53-dependent processes. pifithrin tumor protein p53 Homo sapiens
