Abstract:
To integrate cancer chemoprevention information on a genomics basis, we have built a Web site named GenoCache (Genomics and Cancer Chemoprevention) that would provide users with a molecular biological view of cancer chemoprevention. The site is organized in four viewpoints: substances, genes or gene products with their genetic variations, cells or tissues with various cancer development states, and "pathways" or sequential interactions between these objects. We linked the relevant genes to dbSNP.

Cancer-Critical Genes II: Tumor Suppressor Genes
When the function of certain critical genes, especially those involved in cell cycle regulation and cell growth signaling cascades, gets disrupted, it upsets the cell cycle progression. Such cells with unchecked cell cycles start proliferating uncontrollably and eventually develop into tumors.
