p27(Kip1 )deficiency promotes prostate carcinogenesis but does not affect the efficacy of retinoids in suppressing the neoplastic process
BACKGROUND: p27 is a cell cycle suppressor gene, whose protein is a negative regulator of cyclin/cdk complexes. p27 is also a potential target of retinoids in cancer prevention studies. In benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH), and in most carcinomas, p27(Kip1 )is down-regulated, suggesting its potentia...
