pubmed:abstractText |
Loss of the methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP) gene at 9p21 is observed frequently in a variety of human cancers. We have shown previously that MTAP can act as a tumor suppressor gene and that its tumor suppressor function is related to its effect on polyamine homeostasis. Ornithine decarboxylase is a key enzyme in the regulation of polyamine metabolism. The aim of this study is to analyze MTAP and ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) expression in primary pancreatic tumor specimens.
