Institute of Interdisciplinary Research IRIBHM, Brussels, Belgium
Cancer Res 67:8113-20. 2007..The use of any cell line as a model for a cancer therefore requires prior careful and thorough validation for the investigated property...
Gene expression in human thyrocytes and autonomous adenomas reveals suppression of negative feedbacks in tumorigenesisWilma C G van Staveren
Institute of Interdisciplinary Research (IRIBHM, School of Medicine, Belgium
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 103:413-8. 2006..These results suggest that in tumorigenesis, activation of proliferation pathways may be complemented by suppression of multiple corresponding negative feedbacks, i.e., specific tumor suppressors...
