A role for transcriptional repression of p21 <sup>CIP1</sup> by c-Myc in overcoming transforming growth factor β-induced cell-cycle arrest
1 Aug 2000
Abstract excerpt
c-Myc plays a vital role in cell-cycle progression. Deregulated expression of c-Myc can overcome cell-cycle arrest in order to promote cellular proliferation. Transforming growth factor beta (TGFbeta) treatment of immortalized human keratinocyte cells inhibits cell-cycle progression and is characterized by down-regulation of c-Myc followed by up-regulation of p21(CIP1). A direct role of c-Myc in this pathway was...
