Clinicopathological Significance of Homeobox Gene BP1 mRNA Expression in Human Breast Cancer;

We detected the expression of homeobox D10 mRNA in human breast neoplasm and explored its role on the development of neoplastic transformation.

Analyses of differential expression of Homeobox genes between lingual squmaous cell carcinoma and normal mucosa;

Expression of homeobox gene MSX-2 during cranial suture fusion of SD rats

There are obvious differences between homeobox genes and homeotic genes.

A highly conservative homeobox can be found in its structure, which encodes a type of transcriptional-control factors:homeobox protein, which plays a role of transcriptional controller in the individual development and cell differentiation of organisms.

Vax (ventral anterior homeobox) family was found in 1998, which is related to development of forebrain, optic vesicle, eye predium, optic stalk and neuroretina.

A large number of homeobox genes isolated from yeast,fungi,animals and plants have been studied extensively.

This article summarize the function of homeobox genes,the research of homeobox genes in exterior and interior and the prospect of development in the future.
