Abstract excerpt
P21WAF1/Cip1, an inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinases, is a critical downstream effector in the P53-specific pathway of growth control. Increased expression of P21WAF1/Cip1 has been found to reflect the status of the P53 tumor-suppressor pathway. We investigated the expression of P21WAF1/Cip1 in a relatively small, but well-characterized group consisting of 28 hepatocellular carcinomas. The samples were...
