The status and the expression of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor A (CDKN2A) family genes, named CDKN2A, CDKN2B, and CDKN2C and of cyclin Ds (D1, D2, and D3) genes were investigated in 14 cases of human hepatoblastomas. These genes were selected because: 1) CDKN2A and CDKN2B are very frequently ina
p I 6"K4A, p I 5"K4B, and p i 8 proteins are highly specific inhibitors of cyclin-dependent serindthreonine kinase (CDK) activities required for G IS transition in the eukaryotic cell division cycle. Mutations, mainly homozygous deletions, of the CDKN2A (p16"K4A/MTSI) gene have been recently found i
