Altered p16INK4 and RB1 Expressions Are Associated with Poor Prognosis in Patients with Nonsmall Cell Lung Cancer
p16INK4 and RB1 are two potent cell cycle regulators to control the G1/S transition by interacting with CDK4/6, E2F, and D-type cyclins, respectively. Depending on the tumour type, genetic alterations resulting in the functional inactivation have frequently been reported in both genes. By contrast,...
