Gene regulation and genetic susceptibility to neoplastic transformation: AP-1 and p80 expression in JB6 cells. [PDF]
The mouse epidermal JB6 cell system consists of clonal genetic variants that are sensitive (P+) or resistant (P-) to the promotion of neoplastic transformation by phorbol esters and other tumor-promoting agents. P+ cells display AP-1-dependent phorbol-ester-inducible transactivation of gene expression, whereas P- cells have a defect in transactivation.

Id1 Gene Expression Is Up-Regulated in Hyperplastic and Neoplastic Thyroid Tissue and Regulates Growth and Differentiation in Thyroid Cancer Cells [PDF]
The Id (inhibitor of DNA binding) proteins are a family of helix-loop-helix (HLH) proteins (Id1, Id2, Id3, and Id4) that lack the basic domain necessary for DNA binding. The Id1 protein enhances cell proliferation and inhibits cellular differentiation in a variety of cell types.

Laser-captured microdissection-microarray analysis of the genes involved in endometrial carcinogenesis: stepwise up-regulation of lipocalin2 expression in normal and neoplastic endometria and its functional relevance [PDF]
Endometrial carcinoma often arises from normal endometrial glandular cells via a precursor, atypical endometrial hyperplasia. However, the genetic changes involved in this carcinogenetic process are not fully understood. Differentially expressed genes were selected from glandular cells of normal proliferative-phase endometria, atypical endometrial ...

Phosphorylation-Mediated Regulation of Alternative Splicing in Cancer
Alternative splicing (AS) is one of the key processes involved in the regulation of gene expression in eukaryotic cells. AS catalyzes the removal of intronic sequences and the joining of selected exons, thus ensuring the correct processing of the primary
