Deletion of the p16 and p15 Genes in Human Bladder Tumors
Two genes, p16 (also known as CDKN2, INK4A, or MTS1) and p15 (also described as INK4B or MTS2), are found in tandem at chromosome 9p21. These genes are designated as candidate tumor suppressor genes because they encode proteins that function as negative cell cycle regulators. (The encoded polypeptides inactivate specific cyclin-protein kinase complexes

Clearance of p16-positive cardiac cells improves age-related cardiac remodeling in mice. [PDF]
Abstract Senescent cells are characterized by expression of markers like p16 and secretion of profibrotic and proinflammatory factors. The role of cellular senescence in age‐related cardiac remodeling and dysfunction is incompletely understood. This study aimed to: (i) evaluate the effect of p16‐ positive cell clearance on cardiac function and ...

MGP_HNSC32: A H&E Morphology-Derived 32-Gene Prognostic Signature in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC) exhibits substantial molecular and morphological heterogeneity, yet current morphology‐based prognostic models often lack biological interpretability. We developed a transformer‐based computational framework (CTransPath) to virtually predict gene expression directly from hematoxylin and eosin (H&E ...

Prognostic impact of p16 and p53 gene expressions in stage 1a epithelial ovarian cancer [PDF]
Objective Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is rarely detected at stage 1a. Most of the patients have a good prognosis and there are limited factors that affect their survival. In the present study, we evaluated the p16 and p53 gene expressions of stage 1a

p16 Overexpression and Human Papillomavirus Positivity in More Than 1000 Penile Cancers. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Penile cancer is a severe disease, and a large proportion is related to high‐risk (hr) human papillomavirus (HPV). P16 is used as an immunohistochemical marker of HPV in clinical diagnostics. Population‐based data on the prevalence of p16 in penile cancer is scarce.

Prognostic value of p16, p53, and pcna in sarcoma and an evaluation of immune infiltration
Background p16, p53, and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (pcna) genes play significant roles in many chromatin modifications and have been found to be highly expressed in a variety of tumor tissues.

The CDKN2A (p16) Gene and Human Cancer [PDF]
CDKN2A, the gene encoding the cell-cycle inhibitor p16CDKN2A, was first identified in 1994. Since then, somatic mutations have been observed in many cancers and germline alterations have been found in kindreds with familial atypical multiple mole/melanoma (FAMMM), also known as atypical mole syndrome.
