These effects were similarly observed in OC mouse models treated with Tasquinimod. In conclusion, Tasquinimod can improve OC cells' sensitivity to DDP by down-regulating the HDAC4/p21 axis, offering insights into potential strategies for overcoming cisplatin resistance in OC.

Our research results indicate that overexpression of CDKN2C enhances radiosensitivity in osteosarcoma through the induction of G1 phase arrest and subsequent apoptosis. G1 phase arrest is mediated by the suppression of CDK4 expression and Thr172 phosphorylation, which consequently affects the expression of phosphorylated RB at the Ser807/811 sites.

Due to Cyclin D1 expression, the CDK4/6 inhibitor palbociclib was applied to four patients. The median therapy duration until disease progression in these patients was 4.5 months (range, 1.5-5 months). So, CCND1 genomic gain and Cyclin D1 expression are common features pointing to cell-cycle deregulation as a possible therapeutic target.

Our study also demonstrated that SLL-1A-16 induced autophagy in NSCLC cells by inhibiting the Akt/mTOR pathway. Overall, our findings suggest that SLL-1A-16 could induce cell cycle arrest, apoptosis and autophagy in NSCLC cells by inhibiting the Akt/mTOR signaling pathways, providing a theoretical basis for the potential clinical application of SLL-1A-16 as a chemotherapeutic agent in NSCLC treatment.

Collectively, this study demonstrates that FAM83B serves as an oncogene in LSCC, promoting cell proliferation by controlling the protein expression of CDK4, CDK6, and CCND1, thus inducing a transference of the G1 stage to S stage in cell-cycle of LSCC cells. These results provide an academic foundation for elucidating the mechanism of LSCC occurrence and evolution and for developing treatment strategies for LSCC.

Our data not only identified the prognostic/predictive significance of these key cell cycle regulators but also demonstrate the importance of sub-cellular localisation. CDK2 targeting in cyclin-E1-amplified OCs could be a rational approach.

In summary, the combined results of our network pharmacology analysis and in vitro tests emphasized that Kirenol hinders the growth of ovarian cancer cells, causes cell cycle arrest, enhances apoptosis, and hampers migration, possibly by regulating the PI3K/AKT/CDK4 signaling pathway.

Involucrasin B significantly enhanced the TGFβ RII protein level and SMAD3 phosphorylation, thus inhibiting the expression of CDK4 and cyclin D1 and causing G1 cell cycle arrest. (4) This study shows that involucrasin B exerts its anti-proliferative effect by regulating the TGFβ/SMAD2-3-4 pathway to cause G1 cycle arrest in Caco-2 cells.

Due to high heterogeneity of DLBCL, 30-40 % of patients are resistant to R-CHOP standard chemoimmunotherapy...Further research indicated the pre-treatment with ROS scavenger N-acetylcysteine (NAC) and JNK inhibitor SP600125 could partially attenuate apoptosis and DNA damage triggered by DCZ0358. Most importantly, DCZ0358 exhibited synergistic anti-tumor effects when combined with etoposide, a common clinical anti-DLBCL drug, both in vitro and certainly in vivo. Above results demonstrated anti-tumor molecular mechanism of DCZ0358 in DLBCL cells and highlighted the ROS/JNK/DNA damage pathway as a potential target in therapies, which have implications for the development of more effective clinical treatments for DLBCL.

The combination of CDK4/6 inhibitor palbociclib and PI3K inhibitor idelalisib synergistically induced anti-tumor activity in B-cell lymphoma through downregulation of PLK1 expression, suggested a new combination direction for the treatment of B-NHL and even BTK inhibitor-resistant patients.

On this basis, we investigated if inhibition of cyclin D1/CDK4 with palbociclib (CDK4/6 inhibitor) could reprogram recurrent MCL to deepen and prolong the ibrutinib (BTK inhibitor) response in a phase I clinical trial, and the resistance mechanism by longitudinal genomic analysis of sequential samples from individual patients in the context of the clinical response. In one resistant patient, this led to the maintenance of CD4+ and CD8+ T effector memory cells and a CR in response to venetoclax plus BTKi for nearly 3 years and continuing. In summary, by integrated longitudinal scRNA-seq analysis of a hypothesis-driven therapy, we have provided the first evidence that 1) MCL cells comprise 4 major transcriptomically distinct clusters; 2) resistance to CDK4/6i is associated with expansion of C2 that fuels the proliferating C4 MCL cells, or the long-lived C3 MCL cells with elevated BCL2 expression; 3) CDK4/6i harnesses BTKi response by promoting the maintenance of effector memory T cells; 4) combined inhibition of BCL2 and BTK overrides resistance to CDK4/6i and BTKi, leading to a durable clinical response; and 5) T cell surveillance is pivotal for a durable response to CDK4/6, BTK or BCL2 inhibition; implicating genome-guided combination therapy to overcome therapy resistance in MCL.

Background: The Phase III MONALEESA (ML)-2, -3, and -7 trials showed significant improvement in progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) with ribociclib (RIB) + endocrine therapy (ET) over placebo (PBO) + ET in patients (pts) with HR+/HER2− advanced breast cancer (ABC); improvement in OS with cyclin-dependent kinase 4 and 6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) has been observed in some, but not all clinical trials... In the largest pooled analysis of the association of gene expression profile data with CDK4/6i tx response in pts with HR+/HER2− ABC, the PFS benefit with RIB + ET over ET alone was consistent irrespective of expression levels of most CC genes. Variation in magnitude of RIB benefit was observed, depending on CDKN2B expression levels, CCND1/CDKN2A expression ratio, and machine learning–derived signature scores. The clinico-genomic CDK4/6i signature requires validation in additional datasets.

The prognosis of glioma is poor as its pathogenesis and mechanisms underlying cisplatin chemoresistance remain unclear...This finding suggested that NAP1L1 could interact with HDGF, and the latter recruited c-Jun, a key oncogenic transcription factor, that further induced CCND1/CDK4/CDK6 expression, thereby promoting proliferation and chemoresistance in glioma cells. High expression of NAP1L1 in glioma tissues indicated shorter overall survival in glioma patients.

Moreover, we showed that FHL1 inhibited the proliferation of colorectal cancer cells by negatively regulating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. FHL1 is a potential tumor suppressor gene in colorectal cancer, and regulation of the FHL1-Wnt/β-catenin pathway may be part of its antitumor mechanism.

Furthermore, miR-335-3p overexpression obviously downregulated the expression of CDK4, Cyclin D1 and Bcl-2, while upregulated the expression of p21 and Bad, which were significantly rescued by the co-transfection of pcDNA3.1-EIF3E. Collectively, our study proposes that miR-335-3p/EIF3E axis could be a promising therapeutic target to mitigate the progression of AML.
