Targeting Protein-Protein Interactions to Inhibit Cyclin-Dependent Kinases
Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) play diverse and critical roles in normal cells and may be exploited as targets in cancer therapeutic strategies. CDK4 inhibitors are currently approved for treatment in advanced breast cancer.

Changes in neuronal CycD/Cdk4 activity affect aging, neurodegeneration, and oxidative stress. [PDF]
Mitochondrial dysfunction has been implicated in human diseases, including cancer, and proposed to accelerate aging. The Drosophila Cyclin-dependent protein kinase complex cyclin D/cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CycD/Cdk4) promotes cellular growth by ...

Restriction Checkpoint Controls Bradyzoite Development in Toxoplasma gondii
Human toxoplasmosis is a life-threatening disease caused by the apicomplexan parasite Toxoplasma gondii. Rapid replication of the tachyzoite is associated with symptomatic disease, while suppressed division of the bradyzoite is responsible for chronic ...

Bisphosphonate inhibits the expression of cyclin A2 at the transcriptional level in normal human oral keratinocytes. [PDF]
Nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates (N-BPs) are the most widely used anti-resorptive agents in the treatment of bone-related diseases. N-BPs inhibit bone resorption by specifically targeting osteoclasts, bone-resorbing cells.

Mutant p53 establishes targetable tumor dependency by promoting unscheduled replication [PDF]
Gain-of-function (GOF) p53 mutations are observed frequently in most intractable human cancers and establish dependency for tumor maintenance and progression.

Thyroid status modulates T lymphoma growth via cell cycle regulatory proteins and angiogenesis [PDF]
We have shown in vitro that thyroid hormones (THs) regulate the balance between proliferation and apoptosis of T lymphoma cells. The effects of THs on tumor development have been studied, but the results are still controversial.

Chronic inflammation evoked by pathogenic stimulus during carcinogenesis
A pathogenic (biological or chemical) stimulus is the earliest information received by a cell that can result in the disruption of homeostasis with consequent development of disease.

Cyclin D1 Restrains Oncogene-Induced Autophagy by Regulating the AMPK-LKB1 Signaling Axis. [PDF]
Autophagy activated after DNA damage or other stresses mitigates cellular damage by removing damaged proteins, lipids, and organelles. Activation of the master metabolic kinase AMPK enhances autophagy. Here we report that cyclin D1 restrains autophagy by
