TP53 and cancer: Nutlin-3a, when used at micromolar concentrations, arrested proliferating cancer cells in the G1 and G2 cell cycle phases as well as induced apoptosis in wild-type p53 dependent manner, in a number of different cancer cell lines including colorectal, lung, breast, prostate, melanoma, osteosarcoma and renal cancer, all of which expressed wild-type p53 when studied by Tovar et al.
