Mdm2, but not Mdm4, protects terminally differentiated smooth muscle cells from p53-mediated caspase-3-independent cell death
p53 is a potent inhibitor of cell growth and an inducer of apoptosis. During embryonic development, Mdm2 and Mdm4 inhibit the growth suppressive activities of p53. However, whether tight surveillance of p53 ac...

Some Problems of Trial Design for Anti-Angiogenic Agents in Cancer Therapy
The propensity of tumours to generate resistant clones is a major barrier to cytotoxic and hormone therapy. The vasculature of malignancies is a more appealing target, since tumour endothelial cells are not kn...

Tumour Induction in Animals and the Radiation Risk for Man
It is now generally recognized that carcinogenesis is the most important detrimental effect in man after low dose irradiation. The carcinogenic action of ionizing radiation is clearly demonstrated after exposu...

C-type virus antigens detected by immuno-fluorescence in human bone tumour cultures
IN several animal species, C-type oncogenic RNA viruses (oncornaviruses) cause malignant tumours of mesodermal origin, such as leukaemia, lymphomas and different kinds of sarcoma1. C-type oncornaviruses have rare...
