Amplification and Expression of Cyclin D Genes (<i>CCND1 CCND2 and CCND3</i>) in Human Malignant Gliomas
1 Jul 1999
Abstract excerpt
Malignant gliomas frequently show genetic aberrations of genes coding for cell cycle regulatory proteins involved in the control of G1/S phase transition. These include mutation and/or deletion of the retinoblastoma (RB1) gene, homozygous deletion of the CDKN2A and CDKN2B genes, as well as amplification and overexpression of the CDK4 and CDK6 genes. The D-type cyclins (cyclin D1, D2, and D3) promote cell cycle...
