Nitric oxide-induced apoptosis: p53-dependent and p53-independent signalling pathways

Puntos clave

• Apoptosis is induced by nitric oxide through distinct signaling pathways, both dependent and independent of p53.
• Key metrics show that both pathways may contribute to cell death mechanisms, suggesting a dual role.
• Assessment of the apoptotic process highlights the involvement of reactive species alongside nitric oxide in cell signaling.
• Understanding these pathways calls for further exploration into targeted therapies to modulate nitric oxide effects.
