Background: Triiodothyronine regulates proliferation acting as stimulator or inhibitor. E2F4 and E2F5 in complexes with pocket proteins p107 or p130 stop cells in G1, repressing transcription of genes important for cell cycle progression. p107 and p130 inhibits activity of cyclin/cdk2 complexes. Expression of all those proteins could be regulated by triiodothyronine. In clear cell renal cell carcinoma many disturbances in T3 signaling pathway was described, in that type of cancer also expression of some key G1 to S phase progression regulators was shown.
Methods: We investigated role of T3 and its receptors in regulation of proliferation of HK2, Caki-2, Caki-1 cell lines (cell counting, cytometric analysis of DNA content) and expression of thyroid hormone receptors, E2F4, E2F5, p107 and p130 (western blot and semi-quantitative real time PCR). Statistical analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA.
Results And Conclusion: We show that T3 inhibits proliferation of HK2, and stimulates it in Caki lines. Those differences are result of disturbed expression of TR causing improper regulation of E2F4, E2F5, p107 and p130 in cancer cells.

p53 regulates DREAM complex-mediated repression in a p21-independent manner.

The DREAM repressor complex regulates genes involved in the cell cycle and DNA repair, vital for maintaining genome stability. Although it mediates p53-driven repression through the canonical p53-p21-Rb axis, the potential for p53 to directly regulate DREAM targets independently of its transcriptional activity has not been explored. Here, we demonstrate that in asynchronously growing cells, p53 loss leads to greater de-repression of DREAM targets compared to p21 loss alone.

The acquisition of the post-mitotic state is crucial for the execution of many terminally differentiated cell behaviors during organismal development. However, the mechanisms that maintain the post-mitotic state in this context remain poorly understood. To gain insight into these mechanisms, we used the genetically and visually accessible model of C.

However, the mechanisms that maintain the post-mitotic state in this context remain poorly understood. To gain insight into these mechanisms, we used the genetically and visually accessible model of anchor cell (AC) invasion into the vulval epithelium.

P53 represses transcription by activating p21 expression and promoting formation of RB1-E2F1 and RBL1/RBL2-DREAM transcription repressor complexes. The DREAM complex is composed of DP1, RB-family proteins RBL1 or RBL2 (p107/p130), E2F4/5, and MuvB. We recently reported RBL2-DREAM contributes to improved therapy responses in p53 wild-type NSCLC cells and improved outcomes in NSCLC patients whose tumors express wild-type p53.

Retinoblastoma tumor suppressor proteins regulate the key transition from G1 to S phase of the cell cycle. The mammalian Rb family comprises Rb, p107, and p130, with overlapping and unique roles in gene regulation. Drosophila experienced an independent gene duplication event, leading to the Rbf1 and Rbf2 paralogs.
