Description
c-FOS is a member of the FOS transcription factor family which forms dimers with c-JUN to produce the Activator Protein 1 (AP-1) complex which plays a key role in critical cellular processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis (Chiu et al., 1988). c-FOS expression has been demonstrated to be a useful marker of neuronal activation as it is rapidly induced following various stimuli (Hoffman et al., 1993). Additionally, c-FOS has been shown to be overexpressed in a variety of malignant tumor types (Milde-Langosch 2005)
