Therapeutic Challenge with a CDK 4/6 Inhibitor Induces an RB-Dependent SMAC-Mediated Apoptotic Response in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer. [PDF]
Purpose: The retinoblastoma tumor suppressor (RB), a key regulator of cell-cycle progression and proliferation, is functionally suppressed in up to 50% of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Late Mortality Among Survivors of Childhood Cancer in Canada: A Retrospective Cohort Study
ABSTRACT Background Children with cancer face an increased risk of complications and death beyond the 5‐year survival mark. National surveillance efforts facilitate the systematic tracking of long‐term health outcomes, including treatment‐related complications and late mortality, among childhood cancer survivors.

The insulin-RB synapse in health and disease: cellular rocket science [PDF]
Time has come for a survey of our knowledge on the physical interaction between the growth-promoting insulin molecule and retinoblastoma tumor suppressor protein (RB). Theoretical and experimental observations over the past 15 years reviewed here indicate that the insulin-RB dimer may represent an essential molecular crossroads involved in major ...

LncRNA HOTAIR/miR‐613/c‐met axis modulated epithelial‐mesenchymal transition of retinoblastoma cells
Since lncRNAs could modulate neoplastic development by modulating downstream miRNAs and genes, this study was carried out to figure out the synthetic contribution of HOTAIR, miR‐613 and c‐met to viability, apoptosis and proliferation of retinoblastoma ...

Cell-permeable tumor suppressor peptides for cancer therapy: back to the future [PDF]
Miniaturization is a hallmark of modern technologies. Notably, this feature has not spared molecular biology and its potential applications. Towards developing more effective therapeutics against cancer, studies began to explore more than a decade ago how natural tumor suppression could be translated into antineoplastic drugs.

Cyclin D-Cdk4,6 Drives Cell-Cycle Progression via the Retinoblastoma Protein's C-Terminal Helix. [PDF]
The cyclin-dependent kinases Cdk4 and Cdk6 form complexes with D-type cyclins to drive cell proliferation. A well-known target of cyclin D-Cdk4,6 is the retinoblastoma protein Rb, which inhibits cell-cycle progression until its inactivation by ...
