"We have shown that the cyclin dependent kinase Cdk2, although redundant for cell cycle progression, has a unique role in suppressing a Myc induced senescence program : Myc activation elicited expression of p16 (INK4a) and p21 (Cip1), and caused senescence in cells lacking Cdk2, but not in Cdk2-proficient cells."

"Myc has been shown to be suppressed by p53 through several different mechanisms, which include not only direct transcriptional repression but also the induction of miR‐145 and the lncRNA MILIP by p53.32, 33, 34, 35 On the other hand, Myc induces the mRNA expression of the alternative reading frame of p16 (ARF), which in turn activates p53.36 Myc has been demonstrated to confer a cancer stem cell–like phenotype to human HCC cell lines when the function of p53 is disrupted."
