Overexpression of cyclin D2 is associated with increased in vivo invasiveness of human squamous carcinoma cells
21 Jun 2002
Abstract excerpt
Overexpression of cyclin D2 was studied in 10 human squamous cell carcinoma lines, to establish whether this gene plays a role in tumor progression. We found that those cell lines that overexpressed cyclin D2 (CCND2) had the most invasive in vivo behavior. The invasive ability of the cell lines was determined by evaluating the penetration of carcinoma cells into the tracheal wall in an in vivo assay with...
