The cell cycle is a series of phases that takes place in a cell as it grows and divides. The cell spends most of its time in interphase. During this interphase the cell grows, replicates its chromosomes, and prepares for cell division. Once the cell leaves interphase, it will undergo the process of mitoses and start divining in order to create daughter cells. These new daughter cells will then enter their own interphase and begin a new round of the cell cycle. The cell cycle and its cues are of the utmost importance, because without the cues the cells can either multiply continuously, forming masses, or will not multiply. These cues are cyclins which controls the cell cycle progression.

## Functions and Application of Cyclins

[Cyclins](https://abclonal.com/cell-cycle_cyclins/) are proteins that control the cell progression in the cell cycle by activating [cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK)](https://abclonal.com/search/index?keyword=cdk&catid=56&__hash__=21daf095421991829448bb1e00ad4a15_fc6d00cf12624491b2600d3211af16b8&Searchbar=) which controls the cell cycle processes through phosphorylation. The concentration of cyclins varies according to the stage of the cell cycle. There are 4 phases in the cell cycle, Gap1 (G1), DNA synthesis (S), Gap 2 (G2) and Mitosis (M) phase. Different cyclins function in different phases of the cell cycle along with their associated CDK. The cyclin subunit determines which proteins are held close to the CDK. Cyclins themselves have no enzymatic activity but have binding sites for some substrates and target the CDKs to specific subcellular locations.

Figure 1 Source: Wikimedia Foundation. (2021, July 15). Cyclin. Wikipedia. Retrieved October 13, 2021, from [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclin#/media/File:Cyclin\_Expression.svg](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclin#/media/File:Cyclin_Expression.svg).

As shown in Figure 1, the concentration of the cyclins fluctuates throughout the cell cycle. This being said, the concentration levels of [Cyclin D](https://abclonal.com/search/index?keyword=cyclin+d&catid=56&__hash__=a94df6a17e7850f9dca93130dde6eee1_6691c67e4f09b7d1808558f35ea6f2ca&Searchbar=) do not fluctuate. Their levels increase gradually throughout the cycle, regulating cellular growth. The concentration of [Cyclin E](https://abclonal.com/search/index?keyword=cyclin+e&catid=56&__hash__=63ce2a0321a45e0661d19a8d84453615_4ee3c57b2d0422233158b82387afbcee&Searchbar=) increased with a peak in between late G1 and early S phase. Once the cyclin bound to CDKs, they begin to stimulate S phase CDK activity by preventing their inhibition, thus stimulating the beginning of DNA and centrosome replication. [Cyclin A](https://abclonal.com/search/index?keyword=cyclin+a&catid=56&__hash__=7cb7ff6323e333fb58ac1e260f422b3c_739c538a15066aad948dcf647990c5e3&Searchbar=) is involved in the induction of DNA replication and early stages of mitosis. Their levels rise at the beginning of S phase and fall in early mitosis. Finally, the levels of [Cyclin B](https://abclonal.com/search/index?keyword=cyclin+b&catid=56&__hash__=b1911e39963c8ce3bdd58925bd266c80_9b38a81de4d648a5c67a165fd3a53f81&Searchbar=) increase during mitosis and fall once the cell has passed the spindle formation checkpoint. They help the formation of spindles and chromosome alignment on the metaphase plate.

### Cyclins – CDKs complex

As mentioned above, each cyclin subunit binds to a specific [CDK](https://abclonal.com/search/index?keyword=cdk&catid=56&__hash__=c084e1bdbd20ec0b280121c8a42db295_8a0900f6ef5018ea4ba5b2535197d2c4&Searchbar=) forming a cyclin-CDK complex. This complex activates the cyclins upon binding to the cyclin which regulates different cell cycle transition:

- [Cyclin D](https://abclonal.com/search/index?keyword=cyclin+d&catid=56&__hash__=a94df6a17e7850f9dca93130dde6eee1_6691c67e4f09b7d1808558f35ea6f2ca&Searchbar=) - CDK4/6 complex for G1 progression
- [Cyclin E](https://abclonal.com/search/index?keyword=cyclin+e&catid=56&__hash__=63ce2a0321a45e0661d19a8d84453615_4ee3c57b2d0422233158b82387afbcee&Searchbar=) - [CDK2](https://abclonal.com/search/index?keyword=cdk2&catid=56&__hash__=f6d8afd4c1826b1dd755d06f4c0eb474_e0710ad083ca96050ce9b51c54eabe19&Searchbar=) for the [G1-S](https://abclonal.com/cell-cycle_cell-cycle-control-g1-s-checkpoint/) transition
- [Cyclin A](https://abclonal.com/search/index?keyword=cyclin+a&catid=56&__hash__=7cb7ff6323e333fb58ac1e260f422b3c_739c538a15066aad948dcf647990c5e3&Searchbar=) - CDK2 for S phase progression
- [Cyclin A/B](https://abclonal.com/search/index?keyword=cyclin+b&catid=56&__hash__=b1911e39963c8ce3bdd58925bd266c80_9b38a81de4d648a5c67a165fd3a53f81&Searchbar=) - CDK2 for entry into [M-phase](https://abclonal.com/cell-cycle_cell-cycle-control-g2-m-dna-damage-checkpoint/)

#### Cyclin D and Cancer

The over expression of cyclin D, especially cyclin D1, plays a role in forming human tumors. These tumors can be, for example, mantle cell lymphomas and diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (non-Hodgkin lymphoma). Figure 2 shows the table on the role of the over expression of Cyclin D in different types of cancer.

| **Parathyroid Adenomas ** | **Cyclin D over expression in both neoplastic and non-neoplastic proliferation parathyroid tissue** |
| --- | --- |
| Papillary thyroid carcinoma | Lymph node metastasis |
| Mantle cell lymphoma | Higher age distribution  Larger cell size Higher mitotic index More frequent gastrointestinal involvement  Higher international prognostic index score  Lower p27 expression  Significantly worse survival  |
| Breast cancer | Higher tumor grade  No correlation with axillary lymph node status or tumor size or HER2 amplification  Poorer prognosis Indication need for additional chemotherapeutic treatment Positive correlation with ER status (p < 0.005) Positive correlation with PR status (p < 0.005) Inverse correlation to Nottingham prognostic index Inverse correlation to membrane EGFR Significantly shorter overall survival and relapse- free survival tamoxifen resistance |

World Journal of Surgical Oncology. Retrieved October 13, 2021, from [https://wjso.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/1477-7819-8-111/tables/1](https://wjso.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/1477-7819-8-111/tables/1).

A new study on 3 types of [Cyclin D](https://abclonal.com/search/index?keyword=cyclin+d&catid=56&__hash__=a94df6a17e7850f9dca93130dde6eee1_6691c67e4f09b7d1808558f35ea6f2ca&Searchbar=) (cyclins D1, D2, and D3), which will form complexes with their [CDKs](https://abclonal.com/search/index?keyword=cdk&catid=56&__hash__=c084e1bdbd20ec0b280121c8a42db295_8a0900f6ef5018ea4ba5b2535197d2c4&Searchbar=), specifically [CDK4](https://abclonal.com/search/index?keyword=cdk4&catid=56&__hash__=be8556be4c654c92ed3f82b7ba3271e4_b7968df5ab517c9640702508c8474dd8&Searchbar=) and [CDK6](https://abclonal.com/search/index?keyword=cdk6&catid=56&__hash__=32dd0dd366ff4f1ebaf39bd9b60d6843_ec2cd10d7a0d7c28f12684a467fb4891&Searchbar=), to drive G1 to S phase progression. There are approved drugs that inhibits CDK4 and CDK6 as cancer therapies, but some patients don’t respond as strongly to the drugs.

In this study, it was found that [AMBRA1](https://abclonal.com/search/index?keyword=ambra1&catid=56&__hash__=b6d4081e6e0c70d1d8e185abb9f603d0_44923f048b337e7a90bb69227540f759&Searchbar=) is a beneficial ligase that attaches molecular tags to all 3 types of [Cyclin D](https://abclonal.com/search/index?keyword=cyclin+d&catid=56&__hash__=2d2d6029d268d349c79d5deae0636ed3_d70c0709cc46b9189b0820273a78bd8d&Searchbar=), labeling them for destruction. The role of this enzyme was confirmed to be a tumor suppressor by monitoring cancer cell growth in mouse models of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

Currently, the team performing this study found that lymphomas lacking AMBRA1 are less sensitive to CDK4/6 inhibitors. When the AMBRA1 gene is missing, levels of Cyclin S become high enough to form complexes with another CDK ([CDK2](https://abclonal.com/search/index?keyword=cdk+2&catid=56&__hash__=7532baff4e113eb1449ba233d5aa7f47_de421b3222153b1c260546c958c9aa4f&Searchbar=)), which cannot be inhibited by CDK4/6 inhibitors. The research team is planning to study the effect of combining CDK4/6 inhibitors with CDK2 inhibitors in tumors with low AMBRA1 levels, along with the mutations in cyclin D that make them insensitive to AMBRA1 in the future.

##### Development in the Market

In October 2021, FDA has approved Eli Lilly Verzenio® (abemaciclib) with endocrine therapy (tamoxifen or an aromatase inhibitor) as the first and only [CDK4](https://abclonal.com/search/index?keyword=cdk+4&catid=56&__hash__=5831f9b33f88b25ee2e4ef6571282a6e_c80253c962e1a49a1c9151c4dcbaad38&Searchbar=)/[CDK6](https://abclonal.com/search/index?keyword=cdk6&catid=56&__hash__=a1124bc5b5d548c50942e21aeb94d50c_1d0f903134f85354f21d906ddc0f080c&Searchbar=) inhibitor for the adjuvant treatment of adult patients with HR+ HER2- High Risk Early Breast Cancer. In 2018, Verzenio® (abemaciclib) from Eli Lilly and Kisqali (ribociclib) from Novartis were approved for HR- HER2- metastatic breast cancer. Currently, there are many studies and clinical trials targeting CDKs, especially [CDK2](https://abclonal.com/search/index?keyword=cdk+2&catid=56&__hash__=7532baff4e113eb1449ba233d5aa7f47_de421b3222153b1c260546c958c9aa4f&Searchbar=).
