Forced expression of the cyclin B1-CDC2 complex induces proliferation in adult rat cardiomyocytes.

چکیده
Repair of the mature mammalian myocardium following injury is impaired by the inability of the majority of cardiomyocytes to undergo cell division. We show that overexpression of the cyclin B1-CDC2 (cell division cycle 2 kinase) complex re-initiates cell division in adult cardiomyocytes. Thus strategies targeting the cyclin B1-CDC2 complex might re-initiate cell division in mature cardiomyocytes in vivo and facilitate myocardial regeneration following injury.

Reactivation of the mitosis-promoting factor in postmitotic cardiomyocytes.
Cardiomyocytes cease to divide shortly after birth and an irreversible cell cycle arrest is evident accompanied by the downregulation of cyclin-dependent kinase activities. To get a better understanding of the cardiac cell cycle and its regulation, the effect of functional recovery of the mitosis-promoting factor (MPF) consisting of cyclin B1 and the cyclin-dependent kinase Cdc2 was assessed in...
متن کاملSoluble hyaluronan receptor RHAMM induces mitotic arrest by suppressing Cdc2 and cyclin B1 expression
The hyaluronan (HA) receptor RHAMM is an important regulator of cell growth. Overexpression of RHAMM is transforming and is required for H-ras transformation. The molecular mechanism underlying growth control by RHAMM and other extracellular matrix receptors remains largely unknown. We report that soluble RHAMM induces G2/M arrest by suppressing the expression of Cdc2/Cyclin B1, a protein kinas...
متن کاملOver Expression of Plk1 Does Not Induce Cell Division in Rat Cardiac Myocytes In Vitro
BACKGROUND Mammalian cardiac myocytes withdraw from the cell cycle during post-natal development, resulting in a non-proliferating, fully differentiated adult phenotype that is unable to repair damage to the myocardium, such as occurs following a myocardial infarction. We and others previously have shown that forced expression of certain cell cycle molecules in adult cardiac myocytes can promot...
متن کاملBorna disease virus nucleoprotein interacts with the CDC2-cyclin B1 complex.
Transition from G(2) to M phase, a cell cycle checkpoint, is regulated by the Cdc2-cyclin B1 complex. Here, we report that persistent infection with Borna disease virus (BDV), a noncytolytic RNA virus infecting the central nervous system, results in decelerated proliferation of infected host cells due to a delayed G(2)-to-M transition. Persistent BDV-infected rat fibroblast cells showed reduced...
متن کاملSulforaphane, a Dietary Isothiocyanate, Induces G2/M Arrest in Cervical Cancer Cells through CyclinB1 Downregulation and GADD45β/CDC2 Association
Globally, cervical cancer is the most common malignancy affecting women. The main treatment methods for this type of cancer include conization or hysterectomy procedures. Sulforaphane (SFN) is a natural, compound-based drug derived from dietary isothiocyanates which has previously been shown to possess potent anti-tumor and chemopreventive effects against several types of cancer. The present st...
