Initiation of prostate cancer in mice by Tp53R270H: evidence for an alternative molecular progression

SUMMARY Tp53 mutations are common in human prostate cancer (CaP), occurring with a frequency of ∼30% and ∼70% in localized and metastatic disease, respectively. In vitro studies have determined several common mutations of Tp53 that have specific gain-of-function properties in addition to loss of fun...
