Absence of p16 and p27 gene rearrangements and mutations in de novo myelodysplastic syndromes.

Abstract excerpt

Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) represent a group of clonal hematopoietic disorders characterized by dyshemopoiesis and frequent evolution to acute leukemia. Tumor suppressor gene inactivation may be involved in MDS pathogenesis. The two families of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors (CDKIs) (INK4 family of p15, p16, p18 and p19 and CIP/KIP family of p21, p27 and p57) that negatively regulate cell cycle...
