Gliomagenesis Arising from Pten- and Ink4a/Arf-Deficient Neural Progenitor Cells Is Mediated by the p53-Fbxw7/Cdc4 Pathway, Which Controls c-Myc

Abstract excerpt
Glioblastoma multiforme is the most common type of primary malignant brain tumor and may arise from a cell with neural stem-like properties. Deregulation of the retinoblastoma, phosphoinositide-3 kinase (PI3K), and p53 pathways are molecular hallmarks of this disease. Recent work has shown that p53(-/-)Pten(-/-) mice form gliomas in a c-Myc-dependent manner. To explore the role of the INK4A/ARF locus and Pten...
