Aim: Due to emergence of resistance to available anticancer agents, there is a need to search for new cytotoxic agents. Methods: Pyrido[2,3- d]pyrimidines (4–6) and their tricyclic derivatives (7–13) were prepared and screened for their cytotoxicity against breast MCF-7, prostate PC-3 and lung A-549 cancer cell lines as well as normal fibroblasts WI-38. Results: The most active compounds were 6b, 6e and 8d compared with doxorubicin. Moreover, compounds 6b and 8d induced apoptosis in PC-3 and MCF-7, respectively via activation of CASP3 (in PC-3 only), Bax, p53 and down regulation of Bcl2 in addition to CDK4/6 inhibition. Conclusion: Pyrido[2,3- d]pyrimidine represents an important core for discovery of new potent cytotoxic agents acting on the cell cycle via apoptosis induction through either intrinsic or extrinsic pathways.

Cell diversity in multicellular organisms relies on coordination between cell proliferation and the acquisition of cell identity. The equilibrium between these two processes is essential to assure the correct number of determined cells at a given time at a given place. Using genetic approaches and correlative microscopy, we show that Tramtrack-69 (Ttk69, a Broad-complex, Tramtrack and Bric-à-brac - Zinc Finger (BTB-ZF) transcription factor ortholog of the human promyelocytic leukemia zinc finger factor) plays an essential role in controlling this balance. In the Drosophila bristle cell lineage, which produces the external sensory organs composed by a neuron and accessory cells, we show that ttk69 loss-of-function leads to supplementary neural-type cells at the expense of accessory cells. Our data indicate that Ttk69 (1) promotes cell cycle exit of newborn terminal cells by downregulating CycE, the principal cyclin involved in S-phase entry, and (2) regulates cell-fate acquisition and terminal differentiation, by downregulating the expression of hamlet and upregulating that of Suppressor of Hairless, two transcription factors involved in neural-fate acquisition and accessory cell differentiation, respectively. Thus, Ttk69 plays a central role in shaping neural cell lineages by integrating molecular mechanisms that regulate progenitor cell cycle exit and cell-fate commitment.

Pancreatic growth occurs after CCK, CCK-induced pancreatitis, and pancreatectomy; the mechanisms involved remain unknown. This study evaluates mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation and expression of cell cycle regulatory proteins after pancreatectomy to understand the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in pancreas regeneration. Rats were killed 1–12 days after pancreatectomy, and p42/p44 MAPK activation, expression of the cyclins D and E, cyclin-dependent kinase (Cdk)-2 activity, retinoblastoma protein (pRb) hyperphosphorylation, and expression of the cyclin kinase inhibitors p15, p21, and p27 were examined. Pancreatic remnants exhibited sustained p42/p44 MAPK activation within 8 h. Cyclins D1 and E showed maximal expression after 2 and 6 days, coinciding with maximal hyperphosphorylation of pRb and Cdk2 activity. The expression of p15 vanished after 12 h, p27 disappeared gradually, and p21 increased early. The p27 complexed with Cdk2 dissociated after 2 days, whereas p21 associated in a reverse fashion. In conclusion, sustained activation of p42/p44 MAPKs and Cdk2 along with overexpression of cyclins D1 and E and reduction of p15 and p27 cyclin inhibitors occurred early after pancreatectomy and are active factors involved in signaling that leads to pancreas regeneration.

As a broad-acting cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor, p21WAF1 occupies a central position in the cell cycle regulation of self-renewing tissues such as oral mucosa and skin. In addition to regulating normal cell cycle progression decisions, p21WAF1 integrates genotoxic insults into growth arrest and apoptotic signaling pathways that ultimately determine cell fate. As a result of its complex interactions with cell cycle machinery and response to mutagenic agents, p21WAF1 also has stage-specific roles in epithelial carcinogenesis. Finally, a view is emerging of p21WAF1 as not merely a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor, but also as a direct participant in regulating genes involved in growth arrest, senescence, and aging, thus providing an additional layer of control over matters of the cell cycle. This review discusses these various roles played by p21WAF1 in cell cycle control, and attempts to relate these to epithelial cell biology, with special emphasis on keratinocytes.
