Bmi1 controls tumor development in an Ink4a/Arf-independent manner in a mouse model for glioma

The Polycomb group and oncogene Bmi1 is required for the proliferation of various differentiated cells and for the self-renewal of stem cells and leukemic cancer stem cells. Repression of the Ink4a/Arf locus is a well described mechanism through which Bmi1 can exert its proliferative effects. Howeve...
