Abstract:
It is now widely accepted that cancer development is a multistage process, starting from the original cell population and ending with a malignant tumor. However, the mechanisms involved in the progressive growth of cells from normalcy to preneoplasia, and from preneoplasia to malignancy are not clear. Because tyrosine phosphorylation and dephosphorylation reactions are known to play critical roles during normal and abnormal cellular growth, we have studied the tyrosine phosphorylation, tyrosine phosphorylated proteins, and protein phosphatases during the sequential development of liver cancer. The present investigation indicated that enhanced tyrosine phosphorylation and tyrosine phosphorylated proteins, with no change in the levels of tyrosine protein phosphatases may contribute to abnormal cellular proliferation during liver carcinogenesis. We have also seen an increase in the expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen and G1/S cyclins during tumor development.
