This grand round has already taken place.
June 1st, 2023 1.00 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit Hours
Description
In this seminar we use a mouse model and human studies of p53 to show that an African-specific genetic variant of p53 called Y107H is defective for tumor suppression. We show that we can identify anti-cancer drugs that are preferentially cytotoxic to Y107H tumor cells. And we use Y107H as a way to highlight the p53 target gene PADI4, which citrullinates tumor antigens, as critical for tumor suppression by p53.
Dates and Times
Start: 6/1/2023 12:00 AM
End: 6/1/2023 7:00 PM
Objectives
1. Understand the role of p53 in tumor suppression
2. Understand the difference between a mutant form of p53 in cancer, and a cancer-predisposing ‘hypomorph’ of p53
3. Understand the role of the p53 target gene PADI4 in tumor suppression and immune recognition of cancer
