Stabilization of p21 by mTORC1/4E-BP1 predicts clinical outcome of head and neck cancers

The molecular pathways involving p21 and mTORC1 are frequently deregulated in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC). Here, Llanos et al. report a mechanism that regulates p21 stability through the mTORC1/4E-BP1 pathway independently of p53, and show that the mechanism is prevalent in HNSCC.
