Oncogenic Signals of HER-2/neu in Regulating the Stability of the Cyclin-dependent Kinase Inhibitor p27
1 Aug 2000
Abstract excerpt
Overexpression and activation of HER-2/neu, a proto-oncogene, play a pivotal role in cancer formation. Strong expression of HER-2/neu in cancers has been associated with poor prognosis. Reduced expression of p27(Kip1), a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor, correlates with poor clinical outcome in many types of carcinomas. Because many cancers with the overexpression of HER-2/neu overlap with those affected by...
