Using data from The Cancer Genome Atlas, we found that Slug expression positively correlated with that of c-Jun and cyclin D1 in human prostate cancers.
Expression of miR-124, STAT3, p-STAT3, Bcl-2 and Cyclin D1 was compared between normal human prostate epithelial cell RWPE-1 and prostate cancer cell DU145.
We tested whether genetic variations within the CCND1 gene are related to clinical outcomes in prostate cancer patients receiving radical prostatectomy.
Collectively, our findings suggest that the hormone-mediated recruitment of cyclin D1 to sites of DDR may facilitate the resistance of prostate cancer cells to DNA damage therapies and highlight the need to explore other therapeutic approaches in prostate cancer to prevent or overcome drug resistance.
Therefore, deregulation of CCND1 may be a major cause of cisplatin resistance in testicular germ cell tumors and may also be implicated in ovarian and prostate cancers.
These data demonstrate that differential cyclin D1 status may influence clinicopathological parameters, and reveal new insight as to the regulation and potential consequence of cyclin D1 expression in prostate cancer.
Meanwhile, the expression level of CCND1 was significantly upregulated in the PCa tissues and cell lines, which presented negative correlation with the expression of miR-487a-3p.
As a result, the CCND1-RNASEL-CDKN1A-TP73-MDM2-UBE2I axis was identified as a bottleneck in the miRNA-mediated gene expression regulatory network of PCa according to network topological analysis.
Concomitantly, BBP treatment decreased the protein levels of phosphorylated retinoblastoma, cyclin D1 and E, cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4 and 2, and pre-replication complex (CDC6 and MCM7) in LNCaP and PC-3 cells, whereas CDK inhibitor p27 was elevated in these cell lines.
Taken together, these data establish the potency of cyclin D1 as an AR corepressor and provide support for additional studies examining the efficacy of developing novel prostate cancer therapies for both androgen-dependent and -independent tumors.
However, the AA genotype of CCND1 showed a tendency to increase prostate cancer risk in subjects aged 70 years or older (odds ratio [OR] = 2.14, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.86-5.27, p = 0.096).
This study provides a molecular basis to support the correlation of IL-8 expression with that of cyclin D1 in human prostate cancer and suggests a mechanism by which this chemokine promotes cell proliferation.
In conclusion, results present that SNHG7 regulates the cycle progression and acts as an oncogenic gene in the prostate cancer tumorigenesis via miR-503/Cyclin D1 pathway, revealing the vital role of lncRNA/miRNA/mRNA axis in prostate cancer carcinogenesis.
Our results identify Sam68 as the first splicing factor to affect CCND1 alternative splicing in prostate cancer cells, and suggest that increased levels of Sam68 may stimulate cyclin D1b expression in human prostate cancers.
Prostate cancer was used as a paradigm because this tumor type is reliant at all stages of the disease on androgen receptor (AR) signaling, and cyclin D1 has been shown to negatively modulate AR-dependent expression of prostate-specific antigen (KLK3/PSA).
In the present study, we investigated the diagnostic value of 3 different genes associated with CaP carcinogenesis, encoding for cell cycle (MDM2, CCND1) and apoptotic (Fas) genes that are differentially expressed in CaP.
