Disease: Malignant Neoplasms
Malignant Neoplasms
0.400 Biomarker group BEFREE MDM2 is a wild-p53 inducible protein which may form a complex with p53, abrogating its function, as has been found in human sarcomas and other malignancies. p21WAF1/CIP1 is another protein inducible by wild-type p53, involved in inhibiting cell-cycle progression, through binding to cyclin/cyclin-dependent-kinase complexes. 8943816 1996

Disease: Malignant Neoplasms
Malignant Neoplasms
0.400 Biomarker group BEFREE The results suggest that the MDM2 and CDK4 regions may be either coamplified or amplified independently, and they illustrate how the map positions of genes and their functions may interact to determine the pattern of DNA amplification in human malignancies. 8946202 1996
CUI: C0006826
Disease: Malignant Neoplasms
Malignant Neoplasms
0.400 AlteredExpression group BEFREE Amplification of the MDM2 gene and overexpression of its protein have been observed in some human malignancies, and these abnormalities have a role in tumorigenesis through inactivation of p53 function. 9155050 1997

Malignant Neoplasms
0.400 Biomarker group BEFREE MDM2-overexpressing human cancer cell lines (n = 3) were found to be resistant to growth inhibition after infection by p53-expressing adenovirus (Ad-p53), as compared to low MDM2-expressing tumors (n = 3), in vitro. 9516979 1998
CUI: C0006826
Disease: Malignant Neoplasms
Malignant Neoplasms
0.400 Biomarker group BEFREE Our results suggest that disorder of P2XM expression may play a crucial role in the genesis of benign and malignant tumours in soft tissues, and that one or more genetic factors other than p53 or mdm2 contribute significantly to aberrant P2XM expression. 10376970 1999
CUI: C0006826
Disease: Malignant Neoplasms
Malignant Neoplasms
0.400 Biomarker group BEFREE The overall objective of the present study was to investigate the functions of MDM2 oncogene in tumor growth and the potential value of MDM2 as a drug target for cancer therapy. 10493945 1999
CUI: C0006826
Disease: Malignant Neoplasms
Malignant Neoplasms
0.400 Biomarker group BEFREE Recently, several reports have associated molecular abnormalities of p53 and mdm2 in TGTs with their malignancies. 10651023 2000
