p21 in cancer: intricate networks and multiple activities

T Abbas, A Dutta - Nature Reviews Cancer, 2009 - nature.com
One of the main engines that drives cellular transformation is the loss of proper control of the
mammalian cell cycle. The cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21 (also known as …

Transcriptional regulation of the p21 (WAF1/CIP1) gene

AL Gartel, AL Tyner - Experimental cell research, 1999 - Elsevier
Cell cycle progression is controlled by the cyclindependent kinases (CDKs). CDKs are the
catalytic partners of the cyclins [reviewed in 1]. Regulators of G1 progression in mammalian …

New functional activities for the p21 family of CDK inhibitors.

J LaBaer, MD Garrett, LF Stevenson… - Genes & …, 1997 - genesdev.cshlp.org
The association of cdk4 with D-type cyclins to form functional kinase complexes is
comparatively inefficient. This has led to the suggestion that assembly might be a regulated …

Akt-dependent phosphorylation of p21Cip1 regulates PCNA binding and proliferation of endothelial cells

L Rössig, AS Jadidi, C Urbich, C Badorff… - … and cellular biology, 2001 - Am Soc Microbiol
The protein kinase Akt is activated by growth factors and promotes cell survival and cell
cycle progression. Here, we demonstrate that Akt phosphorylates the cell cycle inhibitory …

Early signaling pathways activated by c-Kit in hematopoietic cells

D Linnekin - The international journal of biochemistry & cell biology, 1999 - Elsevier
c-Kit is a receptor tyrosine kinase that binds stem cell factor (SCF). Structurally, c-Kit contains

Stem cell repopulation efficiency but not pool size is governed by p27kip1

T Cheng, N Rodrigues, D Dombkowski, S Stier… - Nature medicine, 2000 - nature.com
Sustained blood cell production requires preservation of a quiescent, multipotential stem cell
pool that intermittently gives rise to progenitors with robust proliferative potential. The ability …
