Cyclin D1 expression, usually absent in chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL), has been described in the proliferation centers (PC) of some CLL/SLL. The prevalence of this finding is uncertain, as is the explanation for its occurrence and whether these cases have any other unique features. Cyclin D1 immunohistochemical staining was therefore investigated in 57 extramedullary CLL/SLL biopsies. In 6 cases, cyclin D1 immunofluorescence followed by CCND1 fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and PC targeted analysis was performed using a Bioview Duet system. Excluding the prospectively selected cases that had the targeted FISH studies, cyclin D1+ PC were identified in 20% of cases. The cyclin D1+ CLL did not appear pathologically or phenotypically distinctive, though 46% had an interfollicular growth pattern. The cyclin D1+ PCs were SOX11- and lacked CCND1 translocations and gains in 5 of 5 informative cases. The recognition of cyclin D1 expression in PC of a significant minority of CLL/SLL can be a diagnostic aid and should not lead to the diagnosis of focal mantle cell lymphoma.

Only a few human ovarian endometrioid carcinoma cell lines are currently available, partly due to the difficulty of establishing cell lines from low-grade cancers. Here, using a cell immortalization strategy consisting of i) inactivation of the p16-pRb pathway by constitutive expression of mutant cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (R24C) (CDK4) and cyclin D1, and ii) acquisition of telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) activity, we established a human ovarian endometrioid carcinoma cell line from a 46-year-old Japanese woman. That line, designated JFE-21, has proliferated continuously for over 6 months with a doubling time of ~ 55 h.

Background: Breast carcinoma stands out as the most widespread invasive cancer and the top contributor to cancer-related mortality in women. Nanoparticles have emerged as promising tools in cancer detection, diagnosis, and prevention. In this study, the antitumor and apoptotic capability of silver nanoparticles synthesized through Scrophularia striata extract (AgNPs-SSE) was investigated toward breast cancer cells.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the regulatory effects of long non-coding RNA-ANRIL on CDKN2A in the cell cycle of Kasumi-1 cells and elucidate the underlying molecular mechanisms.
Methods: ANRIL and CDKN2A expression levels were quantified using RT-qPCR in peripheral blood samples from acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. CDKN2A knockdown efficiency was validated via RT-qPCR, and cell cycle distribution was analyzed using flow cytometry.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a complex gynecological endocrinological condition that significantly impacts women's fertility during their reproductive lifespan. The causes of PCOS are multifaceted, and its pathogenesis is not yet clear. This study established a rat model of PCOS and, in conjunction with clinical samples and database data, analysed the role of claudin 11 (CLDN11) in follicular granulosa cells (GCs) in regulating the proliferation of GCs.

Improving mammary gland epithelial cells proliferation through nutrition is an important approach for enhancing sow milk production and piglet growth. An intermediate metabolite of valine, 3-hydroxyisobutyrate (3-HIB), regulates cellular lipid metabolism. In the present study, we investigated the effects of 3-HIB on porcine mammary gland epithelial cells proliferation and lipid metabolism.
