These results proved that majority of colorectal cancers express high levels of cyclin B1, consistent with a high rate of cell proliferation, whereas a small fraction of these cancers lose control of cyclin B1 expression, diverging from their fast cell proliferation.
Overexpression of TRAPPC4 after ERK2 silencing decreased the percentage of G0/G1 phase cells, increased the percentage of G2/M and S phase cells, downregulated p21, upregulated cyclin B1, and enhanced CRC cell viability.
Together, these results suggest that CCNB1 is activated by Chk1, exerts its oncogenic role in colorectal cancer cells, and may play a key role in the development of a novel therapeutic approach against colorectal cancer.
Our findings suggest that Cyclin B1 could suppress the invasion and metastasis of colorectal cancer cells through regulating E-cadherin expression, which enables the development of potential intervention strategies for colorectal cancer.
HPIP promotes CRC cell proliferation via activation of G1/S and G2/M checkpoint transitions, concomitant with a marked increase of the positive cell cycle regulators, including cyclin D1, cyclin A, and cyclin B1.
Our data suggest that ZFAS1 may function as oncogene in CRC by two main actions: (i) via destabilization of p53 and through (ii) interaction with CDK1/cyclin B1 complex leading to cell cycle progression and inhibition of apoptosis.
This meta-analysis indicated that positive/high expression of cyclin B1 may have a close association with worse survival in patients with esophageal cancer, but better prognosis in patients with colorectal cancer.
SN1 and SN2 reduced the survival of human CRC HT-29 and HCT-116 cell lines, caused cell cycle arrest in G<sub>2</sub>/M phase, and we observed downregulation of the expression of cyclin B1 and cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (Cdk1) along with up-regulation of the active form of p53, p21 and Bcl-2-associated X (Bax).
