Cell cycle regulation by the Wee1 Inhibitor PD0166285, Pyrido [2,3-d] pyimidine, in the B16 mouse melanoma cell line [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Wee1 kinase plays a critical role in maintaining G2 arrest through its inhibitory phosphorylation of cdc2. In previous reports, a pyridopyrimidine molecule PD0166285 was identified to inhibit Wee1 activity at nanomolar concentrations. This G2

Cyclin D1 and D3 expression in melanocytic skin lesions [PDF]
Cyclins, cyclin-dependent kinases, as well as proteins cooperating with them are responsible for cell cycle regulation which is crucial for normal development, injury repair, and tumorigenesis.

Cell Cycling Models of Carcinogenesis: A Complex Systems Analysis [PDF]
A new approach to the modular, complex systems analysis of nonlinear dynamics in cell cycling network transformations involved in carcinogenesis is proposed. Carcinogenesis is a complex process that involves dynamically inter-connected biomolecules in the intercellular, membrane, cytosolic, nuclear and nucleolar compartments that form numerous inter ...

PTEN, a general negative regulator of cyclin D expression [PDF]
The tumor-suppressor phosphatase with tensin homology (PTEN) is frequently mutated in many malignancies and is one of the most well studied tumor suppressor genes 1, 2. PTEN, a lipid and protein dual phosphatase, plays a vital role in embryonic development, cell growth, apoptosis and cell migration.

Tumor suppressor and anti-inflammatory protein: an expanded view on insulin-degrading enzyme (IDE) [PDF]
In 1994, I conjectured that insulin-degrading enzyme (IDE) acts as an inhibitor of malignant transformation by degrading insulin and thus preventing this major growth-stimulatory hormone from binding and thereby inactivating the retinoblastoma tumor suppressor protein (RB).

Expression of cyclin D1, D3, E, and p27 in human renal cell carcinoma analysed by tissue microarray [PDF]
Aberrations in the GI/S transition of the cell cycle have been observed in many malignancies and seem to be critical in the transformation process. Few studies have delineated the presence of GI/S regulatory defects and their clinical relevance in renal ...

Certain amplified genomic-DNA fragments (AGFs) may be involved in cell cycle progression and chloroquine is found to induce the production of cell-cycle-associated AGFs (CAGFs) in Plasmodium falciparum [PDF]
It is well known that cyclins are a family of proteins that control cell-cycle progression by activating cyclin-dependent kinase. Based on our experimental results, we propose here a novel hypothesis that certain amplified genomic-DNA fragments (AGFs) may also be required for the cell cycle progression of eukaryotic cells and thus can be named as cell ...

Combined effect of cyclin D3 expression and abrogation of cyclin D1 prevent mouse skin tumor development [PDF]
We have previously demonstrated that ras-mediated skin tumorigenesis depends on signaling pathways that act preferentially through cyclin D1 and D2. Interestingly, the expression of cyclin D3 inhibits skin tumor development, an observation that conflicts

The cycline subalgebra of a Kumjian-Pask algebra [PDF]
Let $\Lambda$ be a row-finite higher-rank graph with no sources. We identify a maximal commutative subalgebra $\mathcal{M}$ inside the Kumjian-Pask algebra ${\rm KP}_R(\Lambda)$. We also prove a generalized Cuntz-Krieger uniqueness theorem for Kumjian-Pask algebras which says that a representation of ${\rm KP}_R(\Lambda)$ is injective if and only if it
