p18<sup><i>Ink4c</i></sup> and <i>Pten</i> Constrain a Positive Regulatory Loop between Cell Growth and Cell Cycle Control
1 Jun 2006
Abstract excerpt
Inactivation of the Rb-mediated G1 control pathway is a common event found in many types of human tumors. To test how the Rb pathway interacts with other pathways in tumor suppression, we characterized mice with mutations in both the cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitor p18 Ink4c and the lipid phosphatase Pten, which regulates cell growth. The double mutant mice develop a wider spectrum of tumors, including...
