Abstract excerpt
The growth regulatory function of the retinoblastoma protein (RB) can be suppressed by mdm2 via RB/mdm2 interaction by perturbation of the RB suppression of the E2F function. The goal of this study was to examine the clinical value of immunohistochemical (IHC) RB detection and its relationship to mdm2 overexpression in a cohort of 198 adult primary soft-tissue sarcomas (STS). RB overexpression reveals,...
