Cyclin D1 Activity Regulates Autophagy and Senescence in the Mammary Epithelium
6 Oct 2012
Abstract excerpt
Overexpression of cyclin D1 is believed to endow mammary epithelial cells (MEC) with a proliferative advantage by virtue of its contribution to pRB inactivation. Accordingly, abrogation of the kinase-dependent function of cyclin D1 is sufficient to render mice resistant to breast cancer initiated by ErbB2. Here, we report that mouse cyclin D1(KE/KE) MECs (deficient in cyclin D1 activity) upregulate an...
