Research Abstract |
To elucidate the role of p53 families in the development of olfactory organs, we cultured olfactory organs, repressed the p53 family gene expression in vitro, and investigated the effects on the cellular proliferation, death, gene expression, and morphology. Results in this study suggest that p53 family members coordinately regulate the expression of genes involved in the development of olfactory organs and induce the differentiation and proliferation of the olfactory cells and the vomeronasal receptor cells.
