TP53 and rhabdomyosarcoma: In the present study, we have investigated the effects of 9-cis-retinoic acid (9cRA), 13-cis-retinoic acid (13cRA), all-trans-retinoic acid (tRA) and interferon-α on proliferation and apoptosis of human soft tissue sarcoma (STS) cell lines HTB-82 (rhabdomyosarcoma), HTB-91 (fibrosarcoma), HTB-92 (liposarcoma), HTB-93 (synovial sarcoma) and HTB-94 (chondrosarcoma) in relation to p53 genotype as well as p53 expression.
