Interaction between bcl-2 and p21 (WAF1/CIP1) in breast carcinomas with wild-type p53
26 Sept 1997
Abstract excerpt
The bcl-2 protein is found to be over-expressed in many types of human tumours and is a potent inhibitor of apoptosis. The exact mechanism by which bcl-2 prevents apoptosis and exercises its oncogenic effect is still unclear. Other studies on cell lines have reported that bcl-2 over-expression is related to suppression of p21 (WAF1/CIP). We have investigated the relationship between bcl-2 protein over-expression...
