Abstract:
Livin, a novel human inhibitor of apoptosis protein family member, participates in the regulation of apoptosis through inhibition of caspases and activation of mitogen activated protein kinase ( MAPK )and other pathways. Livin is over-expressed in many tumors and plays an important role in the initiation and development of tumor, providing a promising new field of cancer research.
