Mutant p53 Promotes Epithelial Ovarian Cancer by Regulating Tumor Differentiation, Metastasis, and Responsiveness to Steroid Hormones
10 Mar 2016
Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the tumor protein p53 (TP53) are the most frequently occurring genetic events in high-grade ovarian cancers, especially the prevalence of the Trp53(R172H)-mutant allele. In this study, we investigated the impact of the Trp53(R172H)-mutant allele on epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) in vivo We used the Pten/Kras(G12D)-mutant mouse strain that develops serous EOC with 100% penetrance to introduce the...
