Proto‐oncogene, Pim‐3 with serine/threonine kinase activity, is aberrantly expressed in human colon cancer cells and can prevent Bad‐mediated apoptosis
1 Feb 2007
Abstract excerpt
We previously observed that Pim-3 with serine/threonine kinase activity, was aberrantly expressed in malignant lesions of endoderm-derived organs, liver and pancreas. Because Pim-3 protein was not detected in normal colon mucosal tissues, we evaluated Pim-3 expression in malignant lesions of human colon, another endoderm-derived organ. Pim-3 was detected immunohistochemically in well-differentiated (43/68 cases)...
