CDK inhibitors: cell cycle regulators and beyond.
First identified as cell cycle inhibitors mediating the growth inhibitory cues of upstream signaling pathways, the cyclin-CDK inhibitors of the Cip/Kip family p21Cip1, p27Kip1, and p57Kip2 have emerged as multifaceted proteins with functions beyond cell cycle regulation. In addition to regulating the cell cycle, Cip/Kip proteins play important roles in apoptosis, transcriptional regulation, cel...
متن کاملKip/Cip and Ink4 Cdk inhibitors cooperate to induce cell cycle arrest in response to TGF-beta.
G1 progression in mammalian cells requires the activity of the cyclin D-dependent kinases Cdk4 and/or Cdk6 and the cyclin E-dependent kinase Cdk2. Proliferating Mv1Lu mink lung epithelial cells and human keratinocytes contain high levels of the universal Cdk inhibitor p27Kip1 distributed in complexes with Cdk2, Cdk4, and Cdk6. Addition of the antimitogenic cytokine transforming growth factor-be...
متن کاملMatrix metalloproteinase inhibitors cause cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in glomerular mesangial cells.
Inflammation is characterized by an excess of cell proliferation often leading to fibrosis and sclerosis with subsequent loss of organ function. We hypothesized that these features may be ameliorated by induction of cell cycle arrest and apoptosis as result of therapy with matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) inhibitors. In our study, mesangial cells and experimental mesangial proliferative glomerulo...
متن کاملHistone deacetylase inhibitors induce growth inhibition, cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in human choriocarcinoma cells.
We investigated the effect of five histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACIs) on the choriocarcinoma cell line, BeWo. BeWo cells were treated with various concentrations of five HDACIs, and their effects on cell growth, cell cycle, apoptosis, and related measurements were investigated. 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide assays showed that the BeWo choriocarcinoma cell li...
متن کاملCell cycle and apoptosis: A review
Cancer is characterized by abnormally excessive cell proliferation. Cell proliferation, the process by which a cell grows and divides to produce two daughter cells. Each of these daughter cells divides to produce two new cells, steps that are called cell cycle. Meanwhile, apoptosis is a highly regulated process of cell death, which is involved not only in the development of shape and morphogene...
