Targeting the Cell Cycle: A New Approach to Cancer Therapy

Schwartz, Gary K., Shah, Manish A.·2005·Journal of Clinical Oncology

Abstract

The cell cycle represents a series of tightly integrated events that allow the cell to grow and proliferate. Critical parts of the cell cycle machinery are the cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs), which, when activated, provide a means for the cell to move from one phase of the cell cycle to the next. The CDKs are regulated positively by cyclins and regulated negatively by naturally occurring CDK inhibitors (CDKIs). Cancer represents a dysregulation of the cell cycle such that cells that overexpress cyclins or do not express the CDKIs continue to undergo unregulated cell growth. The cell cycle also serves to protect the cell from DNA damage. Thus, cell cycle arrest, in fact, represents a survival mechanism that provides the tumor cell the opportunity to repair its own damaged DNA. Thus, abrogation of cell cycle checkpoints, before DNA repair is complete, can activate the apoptotic cascade, leading to cell death. Now in clinical trials are a series of targeted agents that directly inhibit the CDKs, inhibit unrestricted cell growth, and induce growth arrest. Recent attention has also focused on these drugs as inhibitors of transcription. In addition, there are now agents that abrogate the cell cycle checkpoints at critical time points that make the tumor cell susceptible to apoptosis. An understanding of the cell cycle is critical to understanding how best to clinically develop these agents, both as single agents and in combination with chemotherapy.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
