Abstract excerpt
In virtually all human tumors, genetic and epigenetic alterations have been found which affect the INK4/-CYCLIN D/RB pathway, which regulates cell cycle entry and exit in normal cells. E2F transcription factors are important downstream components of this pathway, which act by controlling the expression of genes involved in DNA replication and cell cycle progression. To determine whether E2F2 deregulation promotes...
