BAK overexpression mediates p53-independent apoptosis inducing effects on human gastric cancer cells
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>BAK (Bcl-2 homologous antagonist/killer) is a novel pro-apoptotic gene of the Bcl-2 family. It has been reported that gastric tumors have reduced BAK levels when compared with the normal mucosa. Moreover, mutations of the BAK gene ha...
