## Abstract The cyclin‐dependent kinase inhibitor protein p21^Waf1/Cip1^ is a potent tumor suppressor. Here, we demonstrate that estradiol regulates the p21^Waf1/Cip1^ gene. Estradiol induces p21^Waf1/Cip1^ mRNA expression within 30–60 min independent of new protein synthesis in the estrogen recept

We examined the effects of epidermal growth factor (EGF) on MDA-MB-468 cells to understand its mechanism of action in an EGF receptor-rich breast cancer cell line. EGF inhibited the growth of MDA-MB-468 cells with an IC 50 of 1.5 Ϯ 0.5 nM, as determined by measurements of DNA content of cells in cul
The growth-inhibitory protein p2I wAFI/cIpI is a potent inhibitor of various cyclin-dependent kinases, the expression of which is regulated at the transcriptional level by p53-dependent and -independent mechanisms. We examined p2 I wAFI/c'pI mRNA and protein expression in 5 human ovarian-adenocarcin
## Abstract Expression of an estrogen receptor α (ER) transgene in hormone independent breast cancer and normal breast epithelial cells arrests cell cycling when estradiol is added. Although endogenously expressed ER does not typically affect estradiol‐induced cell cycling of hormone dependent brea
