Journal ArticleDOI

A microRNA polycistron as a potential human oncogene

TL;DR: It is found that the levels of the primary or mature microRNAs derived from the mir-17–92 locus are often substantially increased in human B-cell lymphomas, and the cluster is implicate as a potential human oncogene.
Journal ArticleDOI

A multigenic program mediating breast cancer metastasis to bone.

TL;DR: Overexpression of this bone metastasis gene set is superimposed on a poor-prognosis gene expression signature already present in the parental breast cancer population, suggesting that metastasis requires a set of functions beyond those underlying the emergence of the primary tumor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Senescence and tumour clearance is triggered by p53 restoration in murine liver carcinomas

TL;DR: It is indicated that p53 loss can be required for the maintenance of aggressive carcinomas, and illustrates how the cellular senescence program can act together with the innate immune system to potently limit tumour growth.
Journal ArticleDOI

Crucial role of p53-dependent cellular senescence in suppression of Pten-deficient tumorigenesis

TL;DR: It is shown that conditional inactivation of Trp53 in the mouse prostate fails to produce a tumour phenotype, whereas complete Pten inactivation in the prostate triggers non-lethal invasive prostate cancer after long latency, and support a model for cooperative tumour suppression in which p53 is an essential failsafe protein of Pten-deficient tumours.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multidrug-resistance gene (P-glycoprotein) is expressed by endothelial cells at blood-brain barrier sites.

TL;DR: P-glycoprotein expression in capillary endothelium of brain and testes and not other tissues (i.e., kidney and placenta) may in part explain this phenomenon and could have important implications in cancer chemotherapy.
