| Research Abstract |
The pathways regulated by p53 and RB tumor suppressors play important roles in differentiation and irreversible cell-cycle arrest in terminally differentiated cells. To induce dedifferentiation and proliferation of terminally differentiated cells, we investigated functional roles of DRIL1 and its closely related DRIL2, family members of ARID(AT-rich interaction domain) DNA-binding proteins, in these major tumor suppressor pathways. We found that DRIL1 cooperates with p53 to activate pro-arrest p21^WAF1 transcription, and that DRIL1 and DRIL2 play important roles in E2F-target gene expression and cell cycle progression, and that DRIL2 function is required for osteogenic differentiation. In addition, our results suggest that, in addition to DRIL1 or DRIL2 knockdown, inhibition of p53 and RB functions is required for inducing dedifferentiation and proliferation of terminally differentiated cells. These results provide important insights to the conversion of terminally differentiated cells into progenitor cells.
