p27 Kip1 , one of the cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitors (CDKIs), blocks progression from G 1 to S phase by binding cyclin D1-CDK4 and/or cyclin E-CDK2 and inhibiting their activities. Reflecting the function of p27 as a CDKI in vitro, a reduced expression of protein p27 has recently been repo

## Background and objectives: It is generally accepted that the overexpression of p53 protein is associated with poor prognosis in breast, colorectal, and other types of cancer. however, the prognostic significance of p53 aberrations in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma has yet to be determined. w
## Abstract __p63__ is a recently identified homologue of the tumor suppressor gene __TP53__, which encodes multiple isotypes with transactivating, deathβinducing and dominantβnegative activities. p63 is expressed in basal cells of squamous epithelia and many kinds of tumors. To explore the penetra
## Background and Objectives: The goal was to evaluate the clinicopathological significance of retinoblastoma gene product (pRB) expression in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Methods: We investigated abnormal pRB expression in tumors in 191 patients using an immunohistochemical method in conjun
