Background: Dasatinib is a multitargeted inhibitor of ABL, the SRC family, and other tyrosine kinases. We sought to evaluate the effects of this drug on cell proliferation, centrosomes, mitotic spindles, and cell cycle progression in vitro and in vivo.
Design And Methods: Human dermal fibroblasts, Chinese hamster cells, human osteosarcoma cells, and blood and bone marrow mononuclear cells from 32 patients with chronic myeloid leukemia, gastrointestinal stromal tumor, and systemic mastocytosis as well as from six healthy individuals were investigated. The effects of dasatinib were compared with those of the ABL inhibitors imatinib and nilotinib, the SRC inhibitor PP2, and the ABL/LYN inhibitor INNO-406.
Results: Dasatinib induced G(1) phase arrest in all cell lines and this was associated with a decline in cyclin D1 levels. In vitro, centrosomal aberrations, a decrease of mitotic spindles, and G(1) phase arrest were observed. In patients, centrosome alterations were found in a median of 17% (range, 10-22%) of cells with a decrease of spindles in 8/18 patients. In comparison, imatinib, nilotinib and PP2 led to centrosome aberrations without G(1) phase arrest. INNO-406 was associated with centrosome aberrations and cell cycle arrest in G(1) phase.
Conclusions: Dasatinib blocks the G(1)/S transition and inhibits cell growth. It induces centrosomal aberrations and a decrease of mitotic spindles. The effects suggest an involvement of SRC and ABL inhibition.

The role of the electron transport chain (ETC) in cell proliferation control beyond its crucial function in supporting ATP generation has recently emerged. In this study, we found that, among the four ETC complexes, the complex I (CI)-mediated NAD regeneration is important for cancer cell proliferation. In cancer cells, a decrease in CI activity by RNA interference (RNAi) against NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase core subunit V1 (NDUFV1) arrested the cell cycle at the G/S phase, accompanying upregulation of p21 cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor expression.

Introduction: Arjunolic acid, a well-known natural product with various medicinal properties, was isolated from the heartwood of Terminalia arjuna. Various amides of arjunolic acid were synthesized using different aryl and cyclic amines, characterized, and evaluated for their anti-cancer activities at the National Cancer Institute (NCI).
Method: All the derivatives were active against all the cell lines of NCI compared to the parent molecule arjunolic acid.

TP53 mutations are recognized to correlate with a worse prognosis in individuals with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). There exists an immediate necessity to pinpoint selective treatment for patients carrying TP53 mutations. Potential drugs were identified by comparing drug sensitivity differences, represented by the half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50), between TP53 mutant and wild-type NSCLC cell lines using database analysis.

Herpesviruses rely on host RNA polymerae II (RNA Pol II) for their mRNA transcription, yet the mechanisms of which has been poorly defined, while certain herpesviruses can enhance viral gene transcription by altering the RNA Pol II location, modulating its phosphorylation, or directly interacting with RNA Pol II. However, the influence of herpesviruses on RNA Pol II transcription extends beyond these direct effects. Here, we present a novel mechanism by which the host cell cycle regulates viral gene transcription via RNA Pol II during infection by Anatid Herpesvirus 1 (AnHV-1), an avian alpha-herpesvirus.
