Abstract

Increasing the activity of the p53 tumour suppressor in mice protects them from cancer, but this has also been associated with an unwanted side effect, specifically, premature ageing. However, a new strain of 'super p53' mice are resistant to cancer but age gracefully, suggesting that protection from cancer doesn't always come at a price.
