| Description: |
Unlike PHLFs grown in 21% O2, those cultured in 70% O2 displayed a marked growth arrest, as indicated by reduced number of cells seen per field, and enlarged, flattened phenotype associated with senescence.Approximately 10% of untreated cells stained blue, while 80% stained blue in the PHLF population exposed to 70% O2. |

| Pathway description: |
We suppressed p53 function by overexpressing a dominant negative p53 (DN-p53) in a retroviral vector, which resulted in effective suppression of p21 expression .PHLFs overexpressing DN-p53 showed a significant decrease in the number of β-galactosidase-positive cells after 70% O2 exposure compared to PHLFs expressing empty vector. To test for the requirement of both the p53/p21 and p16/pRb pathways under hyperoxia, we overexpressed the HPV proteins E6 (which suppresses p53 function;ref. 42)and E7 together in the same cells. While ~70% of the PHLFs expressing vector controls senesced under 70% O2, only 20% of E6/E7 expressing PHLFs underwent senescence. |
