Research Abstract |
Serum levels of IGF-1 have been identified as risk factors for cervical cancer. In this study, we generated transgenic(Tg) mice that overexpressed an IGF-1 in uterine cervix. IGF-1 Tg mice developed cervical intraepithelial neoplasia(20% incidence). Furthermore, we examined the impact of loss of tumor suppressor genes associated with cervical carcinogenesis on IGF-1-mediated tumor promotion in uterine cervix of IGF-1 Tg mice. IGF-1 Tg mice deficient in PTEN and Bax were more sensitive to tumor promotion of uterine cervix, and p53 deficiency cooperates with increased IGF-1 signaling to drive tumor progression.
