Journal ArticleDOI
WAF1, a potential mediator of p53 tumor suppression
Wafik S. El-Deiry,Takashi Tokino,Victor E. Velculescu,Daniel B. Levy,Ramon Parsons,Jeffrey M. Trent,D Lin,W. Edward Mercer,Kenneth W. Kinzler,Bert Vogelstein +9 more
TL;DR: A gene is identified, named WAF1, whose induction was associated with wild-type but not mutant p53 gene expression in a human brain tumor cell line and that could be an important mediator of p53-dependent tumor growth suppression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cancer Genome Landscapes
Bert Vogelstein,Nickolas Papadopoulos,Victor E. Velculescu,Shibin Zhou,Luis A. Diaz,Kenneth W. Kinzler +5 more
TL;DR: This work has revealed the genomic landscapes of common forms of human cancer, which consists of a small number of “mountains” (genes altered in a high percentage of tumors) and a much larger number of "hills" (Genes altered infrequently).
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Recurrent mutations in the active site of isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) occurred in a large fraction of young patients and in most patients with secondary GBMs and were associated with an increase in overall survival.
Journal ArticleDOI
IDH1 and IDH2 Mutations in Gliomas

Reardon,James E. Herndon,Kenneth W. Kinzler,Victor E. Velculescu,Bert Vogelstein,Darell D. Bigner +17 more
TL;DR: Mutations of NADP(+)-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenases encoded by IDH1 and IDH2 occur in a majority of several types of malignant gliomas.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is found that pancreatic cancers contain an average of 63 genetic alterations, the majority of which are point mutations, which defined a core set of 12 cellular signaling pathways and processes that were each genetically altered in 67 to 100% of the tumors.
