## BACKGROUND. Alterations of the suppressor genes, such as the retinoblastoma (RB), p53, pl6(CDKN2), and p15 genes, have been reported in human gliomas. These genes have been suggested as the cell cycle regulatory genes at the G,-S checkpoint.

Mice lacking both p18 Ink4c and p27 Kip1 develop a tumor spectrum similar to pRb ΓΎ/Γ mice, and loss of p53 function accelerates tumorigenesis in pRb ΓΎ/Γ mice. We hypothesized that codeletion of either p18 or p27 in conjunction with p53 deletion will also accelerate tumorigenesis. Mice lacking both p
## Abstract A subgroup of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs) contains highβrisk human papillomavirusβtype 16 (HPV16). The viral E6 and E7 oncoproteins inactivate the p53 and pRb proteins, respectively. We examined the causative effect of HPV16 E6 and E7 expression on the immortalizatio
Cell-cycle regulation depends on a fine balance between cyclin-cyclin-dependent kinase complexes and a family of kinase inhibitors that bind cyclin-cdk complexes and block their activity. To investigate the role of mechanisms regulating cell-cycle progression in human osteosarcomas (OS), pRb/p16/cdk
