Objective: To investigate the role of cyclin D1 and p27(kip1) in the occurrence and development of conventional renal cell carcinoma(CRCC).

Methods: RT-PCR and Western-blot were used to detect mRNA and protein contents of cyclin D1 and p27(kip1) in 25 CRCCs and 10 normal renal tissue distant to tumor. Immunohistochemistry was used to investigate the expression of cyclin D1 and p27(kip1) in pathological tissue sections of 76 CRCCs. The relationship between those index and clinicopathological parameters was analyzed statistically.

Result: In CRCC, the expression of cyclin D1 was higher than that of the control group. The higher cyclin D1 content was related to big tumor size (P<0.05); The expression of p27(kip1) was lower than that of the control group, and the lower p27(kip1) was related to higher nuclear grade and TNM stage (P<0.01). The 5-year cumulative survival rate of the p27(kip1) high expression group is longer than that of the low group (P<0.01).

Conclusion: The excessive expression of cyclin D1 and lower expression of p27(kip1) play an important role in the carcinogenesis of CRCC. The lower expression of p27(kip1) may affect the progression of the tumors. The detection of p27(kip1) may be as a reference marker in the prognosis of CRCC.

Recombinant GH16B β-agarase-catalyzed liquefaction of 5-7 %(w/v) melted agarose at 50 °C completely hydrolyzed agarose into neoagarohexaose (NA6) and neoagarotetraose (NA4). Subsequent saccharification by recombinant GH50A β-agarase or recombinant GH50A β-agarase/recombinant GH117A α-neoagarobiose hydrolase at 35 °C converted NA6/NA4 into neoagarobiose (NA2) or 3,6-anhydro-L-galactose (L-AHG)/D-galactose, respectively. Purification of NA6/NA4 and NA2 was achieved by Sephadex G-15 column chromatography, while L-AHG was purified by Sephadex G-10, achieving ≥ 98 % purity.

Background: Prostate cancer (PCa) is a public health problem mostly reported in developed countries. The androgen receptor (AR) regulates the development and physiological function of normal prostate as well as the proliferation of cancerous prostate tissue. Treatment with supraphysiological androgen levels (SAL) is used in bipolar androgen therapy and inhibits PCa growth, suggesting SAL induces a tumor suppressive program.

Melanoma is an aggressive cancer characterized by rapid growth, early metastasis, and poor prognosis, with resistance to current therapies being a significant issue. BRAF mutations drive uncontrolled cell division by activating the MAPK pathway. In this study, A375 and FO-1, BRAF-mutated melanoma cell lines, were treated for 4-5 months with RAF inhibitor dabrafenib or AZ628, leading to drug resistance over time.

Beyond the essential role of p27 and cyclin D2 in cell cycle progression, they are also shown to confer an anti-apoptotic function in peripheral blood (PB) lymphocytes. Although the aberrant longevity and expression of p27 and cyclin D2 in leukemic cells is well documented, the exact mechanisms responsible for this phenomenon have yet to be elucidated. This study was undertaken to determine the associations between polymorphisms in the and genes (encoding p27 and cyclin D2, respectively) and susceptibility to chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), as well as their influence on the expression of both cell cycle regulators in PB leukemic B cells and non-malignant T cells from untreated CLL patients divided according to the genetic determinants studied.

p57 is a member of the cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) Interacting Protein/Kinase Inhibitory Protein (CIP/Kip) family that also includes p21 and p27. Different from its siblings, few data are available about the p57 protein, especially in humans. Structurally, p57 is an intrinsically unstructured protein, a characteristic that confers functional flexibility with multiple transient interactions influencing the metabolism and roles of the protein.
