Overview

Tumor suppressor genes are genes that help regulate cell growth and division, thereby preventing the uncontrolled growth that can lead to cancer. They do this by blocking cell signaling pathways involved in the formation of tumors, restricting cell proliferation, and inducing cell death. Mutations to tumor suppressor genes are linked to a variety of different cancers, making them an important target in cancer research. A better understanding of their function and regulation could lead to new, more effective treatments for cancer.
