Amplification/overexpression of Aurora-A in human gastric carcinoma: Potential role in differentiated type gastric carcinogenesis
1 Sept 2004
Abstract excerpt
Aurora-A encodes a cell cycle regulated serine/threonine kinase that has essential functions for centrosome maturation and chromosome segregation. Aurora-A is amplified and overexpressed in various human carcinomas and is suggested to be a potential oncogene. To clarify the potential role of Aurora-A in human gastric carcinoma, we examined the amplification and expression in both tumor cell lines and primary...
