Abstract excerpt
Tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) play a crucial role in maintaining tissue homeostasis, and their loss can lead to uncontrolled overgrowth. For over 50 years, Drosophila has been a pivotal organism for identifying and studying novel TSGs in vivo. This chapter focuses on two types of TSGs that regulate cell growth: hyperplastic TSGs and neoplastic TSGs. Loss of hyperplastic TSGs will result in cell overgrowth without...
