Glycerol restores heat-induced p53-dependent apoptosis of human glioblastoma cells bearing mutant p53
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>We have previously reported that glycerol acts as a chemical chaperone to restore the expression of WAF1 in some human cancer cell lines bearing mutant p53. Since the expression of WAF1 is up-regulated by activated wildtype p53, glyc...
