Introduction Over the past decades, the number of people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) has increased globally. One of the major complications in these patients is cardiovascular disease; it seems that the cell proliferation inhibition can improve vascular ...

Promoter methylation of MLH1, PMS2, MSH2 and p16 is a phenomenon of advanced-stage HCCs. [PDF]
Epigenetic silencing of tumour suppressor genes has been observed in various cancers. Looking at hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) specific protein silencing was previously demonstrated to be associated with the Hepatitis C virus (HCV).

Genetic Alterations in the INK4a/ARF Locus: Effects on Melanoma Development and Progression
Genetic alterations in the INK4a/ARF (or CDKN2A) locus have been reported in many cancer types, including melanoma; head and neck squamous cell carcinomas; lung, breast, and pancreatic cancers.

Histopathological characteristics and coexpression of p53 and p16INK4a proteins in renal cancer [PDF]
Background/Aim. Renal carcinoma represents histologically heterogeneous group of malignant tumors, with various clinical aggressiveness. The frequency of p53 mutation in primal renal carcinoma is rare, although there are information about its ...

Trithorax group proteins: switching genes on and keeping them active [PDF]
Cellular memory is provided by two counteracting groups of chromatin proteins termed Trithorax group (TrxG) and Polycomb group (PcG) proteins. TrxG proteins activate transcription and are perhaps best known because of the involvement of the TrxG protein ...

p16/Cyclin-Dependent Kinase Inhibitor 2A Deficiency in Human Melanocyte Senescence, Apoptosis, and Immortalization: Possible Implications for Melanoma Progression [PDF]
The melanoma susceptibility locus cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A encodes two unrelated cell growth inhibitors, p16 and alternative reading frame (ARF). In fibroblasts, both proteins are implicated in cellular senescence, a key barrier to tumor development. The p16 coding sequence is more often mutated in melanoma families than is the ARF sequence.

eIF4A inhibitors suppress cell-cycle feedback response and acquired resistance to CDK4/6 inhibition in cancer [PDF]
CDK4/6 inhibitors are FDA-approved drugs for estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer and are being evaluated to treat other tumor types, including KRAS-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

The ING1a tumor suppressor regulates endocytosis to induce cellular senescence via the Rb-E2F pathway. [PDF]
The INhibitor of Growth (ING) proteins act as type II tumor suppressors and epigenetic regulators, being stoichiometric members of histone acetyltransferase and histone deacetylase complexes. Expression of the alternatively spliced ING1a tumor suppressor

Thyroid status modulates T lymphoma growth via cell cycle regulatory proteins and angiogenesis [PDF]
We have shown in vitro that thyroid hormones (THs) regulate the balance between proliferation and apoptosis of T lymphoma cells. The effects of THs on tumor development have been studied, but the results are still controversial.
