8 Dec 2010
Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: OBJECTDIVES: Mouse double minute 2 is a key negative regulator of the p53 protein, a central node in the mediation of tumor suppression. The MDM2 gene contains 2 differently regulated promoters, MDM2-P1 and MDM2-P2, which differ strongly in their biological and clinical importance. METHODS: We assess the clinical significance of the expression of messenger RNA (mRNA) transcripts originating from both...
