pubmed:abstractText
Chronic inflammation contributes to tumorigenesis. The retinoblastoma protein (pRb), in its hyperphosphorylated form, releases E2 promoter binding factor-1 (E2F1), which drives cell proliferation. Here, we show that pRb is hyperphosphorylated in both mouse and human colitis. In turn, pRb hyperphosphorylation is associated with release of E2F1 from pRb, resulting in the activation of E2F1 target molecules involved in proliferation and apoptosis. These observations provide insight into the in vivo mechanisms associated with chronic colon inflammation and increased colon cancer risk.
