Abstract

Diabetes, a metabolic disorder is alarmingly increasing across the globe and currently ample of research is being carriedout to treat hyperglycaemia and its secondary complications in diabetic patients. Despite extensive research, specificcauses of this metabolic disorder are still not well understood at molecular level. As p53 a tumor suppressor gene hasmostly been associated with cancer, however, the most recent research studies sheds light on vital role of p53 signallingin diabetes development. In this review we underline the role of altered p53 protein expression in diabetes and itsassociated metabolic disorders including hypertension and dyslipidemia. We try to throw some light on latest studies thatsuggest how p53 signalling may act as a new potential therapeutic target for diabetes and its related metabolic disorders.
