The INK4a /ARF locus: role in cell cycle control for renal cell epithelial tumor growth after the Chernobyl accident.

Abstract excerpt

Previous studies have shown that during the period subsequent to the Chernobyl accident, increases in morbidity, aggressivity and proliferative activity of renal-cell carcinomas (RCCs) in Ukrainian patients were recognized. The present paper describes the molecular alterations of those tumor suppressor genes located on chromosome 9p21 ( INK4a/ARF locus and p15(INK4B)) in 26 primary renal-cell epithelial tumors...
