In recent years, experimental data on the roles of viruses and cyclin B1 in G2/M arrest has accumulated. The aim of our study was to immunohistochemically examine a series of cervical squamous intraepithelial lesions for the presence of cyclin B1 and test for a possible correlation with morphologic findings or human papillomavirus (HPV) types detected by polymerase chain reaction. One hundred and three biopsies and/or conization specimens were examined, including high-grade lesions (25), low-grade lesions (52), biopsies showing nondiagnostic atypia (15), and biopsies without histopathologic alterations (11). Three patterns of immunopositivity were recognized, according to the level of epithelium exhibiting positively stained cells. Immunoreactivity for cyclin B1 above the basal/parabasal cells correlated with HPV presence. Cyclin B1-stained cells may represent "prekoilocytes," whose eventual progression to koilocytes would depend on several parameters related to the intricacies of HPV infection. In cases of nondiagnostic atypia immunoreactivity, cyclin B1 could be considered as a surrogate test.

Background: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) play a pivotal role in the development and advancement of various cancer types. However, the involvement of circ-PAN3 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is not well understood. To shed light on this, we conducted a comprehensive study through biochemistry, cell biology, molecular biology, and bioinformatics techniques to investigate the role of circ-PAN3 and its associated pathway in the progression of HCC.

Background: The skin, with its robust structural integrity and advanced immune defense system, serves as a critical protective barrier against environmental toxins and carcinogenic compounds. Despite this, it remains vulnerable to the harmful effects of certain hazardous agents.
Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the chemopreventive potential of β-caryophyllene (BCP) in mitigating 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA)-induced skin carcinogenesis, focusing on the modulation of apoptosis and PI3K/AKT signaling pathways.

Cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) plays a crucial role in cell cycle regulation, is overexpressed in various cancers and is an important target in the development of radiotracers for tumour imaging. Despite the increasing recognition of CDK4/6 inhibitors in cancer therapy, their application is limited by the lack of suitable biomarkers. Herein, we developed a series of technetium-99m-labelled CDK4/6 radiotracers and utilized a linker optimization strategy to reduce their abdominal uptake and enhance their imaging properties.

In the flower development study, we identified SCI1 (Stigma/style Cell-cycle Inhibitor 1), a regulator of cell proliferation. SCI1 interacts with NtCDKG;2 ( Cyclin-Dependent Kinase G;2), a homolog of human CDK11, which is responsible for RanGTP-dependent microtubule stabilization, regulating spindle assembly rate. In a Y2H screening of a cDNA library using NtCDKG;2 as bait, a RanBP1 (Ran-Binding Protein 1) was revealed as its interaction partner.
