p53 is required for etoposide-induced apoptosis of human embryonic stem cells

The molecular mechanisms controlling DNA-damage-induced apoptosis of human embryonic stem cells (hESC) are poorly understood. Here we investigate the role of p53 in etoposide-induced apoptosis. We show that p53 is constitutively expressed at high levels in the cytoplasm of hESC. Etoposide treatment...
