WWOX, tumour suppressor and modifier gene, as a regulator of gene expression and apoptosis in ovarian cancer
WWOX is a tumour suppressor gene, as demonstrated by increased neoplasia incidence in Wwox-knock-out animals, and is frequently disrupted in human cancers. WWOX expression reconstitution abolishes xenograft growth of lung, pancreatic, breast, ovarian and prostate cancer cells. The tumoursuppressive...
