p16(INK4a) is a cell cycle inhibitor and a major tumor-suppressor protein, but the regulation of p16(INK4a) is poorly understood and the physiologic settings in which it exerts its antiproliferative effects are unknown. A role for p16(INK4a) in intestinal neoplasia is suggested by the observation that the promoter region is methylated in a subset of human colon tumors. We examined the expression of the protein in specimens representing the full spectrum of neoplastic progression in the human colon and determined whether expressing cells showed evidence of cell cycle inhibition.
