c-fos is required for malignant progression of skin tumors
The proto-oncogene c-fos is a major nuclear target for signal transduction pathways involved in the regulation of cell growth, differentiation, and transformation. Using the multistep skin carcinogenesis model, we have directly tested the ability of c-fos-deficient mice to develop cancer. Upon treatment with a tumor promoter, c-fos knockout mice carrying a v-H-ras transgene were able to develop...
متن کاملRSK-c-Fos in KSHV lytic progression
Kaposi’s sarcoma (KS) is a common malignancy in untreated AIDS patients that is caused by the infection of Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV). KS lesions are characterized by spindle-shaped endothelial cells with infiltration of inflammatory cells and neoangiogenesis. KSHV commonly establishes default latent infection, but lytic replications occur in a small fraction of cells and pl...
متن کاملOverexpression of activating transcription factor-2 is required for tumor growth and progression in mouse skin tumors.
Activating transcription factor (ATF)-2 is a member of the ATF/cyclic AMP-responsive element binding protein family of transcription factors. It has been shown, in vitro, to possess growth factor-independent proliferation and transformation capacity. The information concerning the involvement of ATF-2 in carcinogenesis is rather limited. In a previous report, we showed a progressive increase in...
متن کاملFrequency of malignant skin tumors in renal transplant recipients in Imam Reza hospital of Mashhad, Iran
Background: The higher frequency of malignant skin tumors is of great significance in renal transplant recipients (RTRs) who should receive immunosuppressive therapy for a long time. This study was designed to determine the frequency of malignant skin tumors in RTRs in Imam Reza Hospital, Mashhad, Iran, in 2001-2002.Method: This descriptive study was performed on 322 recipients who were examine...
متن کاملPATTERN OF MALIGNANT TUMORS IN KERMAN PROVINCE
From March 1980 to March 1989 a total number of 2254 (7.6%) new malignant cases from Kerman province were diagnosed by examination of surgical specimens, blood films and bone marrow smears. The crude relative frequency of cancers was studied and compared with other areas of Iran. Gastric (11.36%) and urinary bladder (7.01 %) carcinomas were significantly more common in Kerman province than...
