Targeting Mdm2 and Mdmx in cancer therapy: better living through medicinal chemistry?Wade M; Wahl GMMol Cancer Res 2009[Jan]; 7 (1): 1-11Genomic and proteomic profiling of human tumor samples and tumor-derived cell lines are essential for the realization of personalized therapy in oncology. Identification of the changes required for tumor initiation or maintenance will likely provide new targets for small-molecule and biological therapeutics. For example, inactivation of the p53 tumor suppressor pathway occurs in most human cancers. Although this can be due to frank p53 gene mutation, almost half of all cancers retain the wild-type p53 allele, indicating that the pathway is disabled by other means. Alternate mechanisms include deletion or epigenetic inactivation of the p53-positive regulator arf, methylation of the p53 promoter, or elevated expression of the p53 regulators Mdm2 and Mdmx. This review discusses current models of p53 regulation by Mdm2 and Mdmx and presents the rationale for design of future Mdmx-specific therapeutics based on our knowledge of its structure and biological functions.|*Genes, p53[MESH]|Animals[MESH]|Cell Cycle Proteins[MESH]|Dimerization[MESH]|Gene Expression Regulation, Neoplastic[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Mice[MESH]|Mice, Transgenic[MESH]|Mutation[MESH]|Neoplasms/*genetics/*therapy[MESH]|Nuclear Proteins/antagonists & inhibitors/drug effects/*genetics/metabolism[MESH]|Proto-Oncogene Proteins c-mdm2/drug effects/*genetics/metabolism[MESH]|Proto-Oncogene Proteins/antagonists & inhibitors/drug effects/*genetics/metabolism[MESH]|Transcription, Genetic[MESH]|Transcriptional Activation[MESH]|Tumor Suppressor Protein p53/genetics/metabolism[MESH] |
