Evidence for a Role of the Transcriptional Regulator Maid in Tumorigenesis and Aging.

Maid is a helix-loop-helix protein that is involved in cell proliferation. In order to further elucidate its physiological functions, we studied Maid activity in two small fish model systems. We found that Maid expression was greatest in zebrafish liver and that it increased following partial hepate...
