Candidate tumor suppressor RIZ is frequently involved in colorectal carcinogenesis.
The distal portion of chromosome 1p is one of the most commonly affected regions in human cancer. In this study of hereditary and sporadic colorectal cancer, a region of frequent deletion was identified at 32.2 centimorgans from 1ptel. Deletion breakpoints clustered in the vicinity of or inside the gene RIZ, which encodes a retinoblastoma protein-interacting zinc finger protein. Sequence analys...
متن کاملTumor suppressor candidate gene, NDRG2 is frequently inactivated in human glioblastoma multiforme.
N‑myc downstream regulated gene 2 (NDRG2) is highly expressed in numerous normal tissues, while it is marginally expressed or undetectable in various tumors, including lung and colon cancer. In order to investigate the expression of NDRG2 in human glioma and its downstream regulatory mechanisms, quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), immunohistochemistry and western blot analyses were u...
متن کاملExpression of DMBT1, a candidate tumor suppressor gene, is frequently lost in lung cancer.
DMBT1 is a candidate tumor suppressor gene located at 10q25.3-26.1. Homozygous deletion of the gene was found in a subset of medulloblastoma and glioblastoma multiforme; lack of expression was noted in the majority of these tumors. In adult tissues, DMBT1 is highly expressed only in lung and small intestine tissues, indicating its important role in these organs. By analyzing lung cancer cell li...
متن کاملThe tumor suppressor gene WWOX at FRA16D is involved in pancreatic carcinogenesis.
PURPOSE WWOX (WW domain containing oxidoreductase) is a tumor suppressor gene that maps to the common fragile site FRA16D. We showed previously that WWOX is frequently altered in human lung and esophageal cancers. The purpose of this study was to delineate more precisely the role of WWOX in pancreatic carcinogenesis. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN We analyzed 15 paired pancreatic adenocarcinoma samples ...
متن کاملThe candidate tumor suppressor gene, RASSF1A, from human chromosome 3p21.3 is involved in kidney tumorigenesis.
Clear cell-type renal cell carcinomas (clear RCC) are characterized almost universally by loss of heterozygosity on chromosome 3p, which usually involves any combination of three regions: 3p25-p26 (harboring the VHL gene), 3p12-p14.2 (containing the FHIT gene), and 3p21-p22, implying inactivation of the resident tumor-suppressor genes (TSGs). For the 3p21-p22 region, the affected TSGs remain, a...
