pubmed:abstractText
The p53 tumor suppressor is recognized as a promising target for anti-cancer therapies. We previously reported that protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) disrupts the p53/murine double minute 2 (MDM2) complex and leads to p53 accumulation and activation of apoptosis in HCT 116 cells. Here we show the direct binding of PpIX to the N-terminal domain of p53. Furthermore, we addressed the induction of apoptosis in HCT 116 p53-null cells by PpIX and revealed interactions between PpIX and p73. We propose that PpIX disrupts the p53/MDM2 or MDMX and p73/MDM2 complexes and thereby activates the p53- or p73-dependent cancer cell death.
