PIG7 gene and human diseases / 基础医学与临床

Apoptosis induced byP53 gene is one of the most important mechanisms of signal integration in cells,which identify the cell injury and start downstream apoptotic signals.PIG7 gene is induced byP53 and correlates with metabolism,inflammation and tumor occurence.Here we reviewed the recent findings in the molecular biology ofPIG7 gene and the correlation with human diseases.
