University of Pittsburgh Cancer Institute, Hillman Cancer Center, Department of Pharmacology, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA
Gut 56:645-54. 2007..It has been shown that PUMA plays an essential role in apoptosis induced by a variety of stimuli in different tissues through a mitochondrial pathway...
Hematopoietic stem cells are not the direct target of spontaneous leukemic transformation in p18(INK4C)-null reconstituted miceYouzhong Yuan
Department of Radiation Oncology, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA
Cancer Res 66:343-51. 2006..The data also support the notion that p18 has an independent role in T cell maintenance such that CD3+ CD8+ cells, unlike HSCs, are more accessible to leukemogenic transformation after the loss of p18...

Neuroscience Center, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02129, USA
J Exp Med 199:937-45. 2004..Therefore, p21 is an intrinsic suppressor to neural regeneration after brain injury and may serve as a common molecular regulator restricting proliferation among stem cell pools from distinct tissue types...
Human HTm4 is a hematopoietic cell cycle regulatorJose L Donato
Department of Medicine, Division of Hematology and Oncology, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts 02115, USA
J Clin Invest 109:51-8. 2002..Overexpression of HTm4 can cause cell cycle arrest at the G(0)/G(1) phase. Thus, HTm4 is a novel hematopoietic modulator for the G(1)-S cell cycle transition...
