چکیده

A reduction in the cellular levels of the cyclin kinase inhibitor p27(kip1) is frequently found in many human cancers and correlates directly with patient prognosis. In this work, we identify argyrin A, a cyclical peptide derived from the myxobacterium Archangium gephyra, as a potent antitumoral drug. All antitumoral activities of argyrin A depend on the prevention of p27(kip1) destruction, as loss of p27(kip1) expression confers resistance to this compound. We find that argyrin A exerts its effects through a potent inhibition of the proteasome. By comparing the cellular responses exerted by argyrin A with siRNA-mediated knockdown of proteasomal subunits, we find that the biological effects of proteasome inhibition per se depend on the expression of p27(kip1).

SIRT1 inactivation evokes antitumor activities in NSCLC through the tumor suppressor p27.

UNLABELLED P27(Kip1) (CDKN1B) regulates cellular proliferation and senescence, and p27(Kip1) deficiency in cancer is strongly correlated with poor prognosis of multiple cancer types. Understanding the mechanism of p27(Kip1) loss in cancer and the consequences of restoring p27(Kip1) levels is therefore critical for effective management during therapy. Here, SIRT1, a class III histone deacetylase...

p27Kip1 modulates cell migration through the regulation of RhoA activation.

The tumor suppressor p27(Kip1) is an inhibitor of cyclin/cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) complexes and plays a crucial role in cell cycle regulation. However, p27(Kip1) also has cell cycle-independent functions. Indeed, we find that p27(Kip1) regulates cell migration, as p27(Kip1)-null fibroblasts exhibit a dramatic decrease in motility compared with wild-type cells. The regulation of motility by...

Stat1 Phosphorylation Determines Ras Oncogenicity by Regulating p27Kip1

Inactivation of p27 Kip1 is implicated in tumorigenesis and has both prognostic and treatment-predictive values for many types of human cancer. The transcription factor Stat1 is essential for innate immunity and tumor immunosurveillance through its ability to act downstream of interferons. Herein, we demonstrate that Stat1 functions as a suppressor of Ras transformation independently of an inte...

STAT1 represses Skp2 gene transcription to promote p27Kip1 stabilization in Ras-transformed cells.

The S-phase kinase-associated protein 2 (Skp2) is an F-box protein that serves as a subunit of the Skp1-Cullin-F-box ubiquitin protein ligase complex. Skp2 is overexpressed in many tumors and promotes tumor formation through its ability to induce the degradation of proteins with antiproliferative and tumor-suppressor functions, such as p27(Kip1). The signal transducer and activator of transcrip...
