摘要
Expression of the p27(kip1) cell cycle inhibitor is downregulated in a wide range of carcinomas, yet it is rarely inactivated completely. Our recent studies of a mouse model of prostate carcinogenesis have revealed that cancer progression is enhanced by a two-fold reduction in p27(kip1) gene dosage, but is unexpectedly inhibited by further decrease in p27(kip1) activity. This paradoxical finding may explain the unusual features of p27(kip1) downregulation in human cancer, and also suggests a potential route for therapeutic intervention.
