Abstract excerpt
p21, the product of the WAF1/CIP1/SDI1/mda-6 gene, is an inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinases. In cell cultures p21 is induced by p53-dependent and p53-independent pathways by DNA damage and induction of differentiation. We investigated p21 RNA and immunohistochemical expression in 43 non-small cell lung carcinomas and corresponding normal lung samples previously investigated for p53 and WAF1 gene status and p53...
