Conditional haploinsufficiency of the retinoblastoma tumor suppressor gene
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recent work demonstrates that retention of a single functional retinoblastoma susceptibility (RB1) allele is insufficient to maintain genome stability. Haploinsufficiency of RB1 accelerates cancer pathogenesis in concert with inactivation of tumor protein p53. Collectively, multiple lines of evidence suggest revision of the '2-hit' model to include conditional haploinsufficiency of RB1.

Background: The molecular studies indicate some of the genes in the promoter region itself, will undergo methylation. Methylation of CpG islands in the promoter region of that cause silence or reduced expression of genes involved in cell growth pathways, which are colorectal cancer causing agents. Detection of methylation status can be used as a marker for cancer diagnosis and prediction of dis...

Introduction: Breast cancer remains the prominent cause of mortality in women. Several biomarkers are used to evaluation the response and targeting to therapy. Tumor suppressor candidate 1 (TUSC1) gene was newly identified as a probable tumor suppressor in human cancers. Nevertheless, the expression and potential function of TUSC1 in breast cancer stay undecided. Therefore, this study aimed the...
متن کاملThe Effect of Interval Training on the Expression of Tumor Suppressor Gene, Systemic Inflammation, and Tumor Volume in Breast Cancer–Bearing BALB/c Mice
Introduction: E-cadherin is expressed in most normal epithelial tissues. Loss of E-cadherin can cause dedifferentiation and invasiveness in human carcinomas, leading E-cadherin to be classified as a tumor suppressor. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of interval training on the expression of tumor suppressor gene E-cadherin in breast cancer-bearing BALB/c mice. Meth...

Retinoblastoma is a retinal malignant tumor that occurs in early childhood. The annual incidence of retinoblastoma is approximately one per 14 000 live births. 250 to 300 new cases are reported in the United States each year. It develops due to inactivation of both alleles of the retinoblastoma susceptibility (RB1) gene. All hereditary cases (55%) are with bilateral and multifocal lesions, but ...
