Research Abstract |
The expression patterns of D-type cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases (cdks) in SKM-1 myelodyaplastic syndrome (MDS) cells co-cultured with granulocyte-macrophage colonystimulating factor (GM-CSF) and/or transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) was analyzed. Our results indicated that TGF-β1-mediated G1 arrest correlated with the downregulation of cdk4, cdk6 and cyclin D2, and that abrogation of TGF-β1-mediated G1 arrest by GM-CSF was caused by the constitutive overexpression of cyclin D2 and cdk6 but not cdk4. These results suggest the importance of cyclin D2/cdk6 levels in abrogating G1 arrest in cells exposed to TGF-β1, and raise the possibility that the GM-CSF-mediated upregulatory pathway of signal transduction through cyclin D2/cdk6 play an important roles in the induction of leukemic change of patients with myelodysplastic syndrome.
