Abstract
The Cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) class of serine/threonine kinases has crucial roles in the regulation of cell cycle transition and is mainly involved in the pathogenesis of cancers. The expression of CDKs is controlled by a complex regulatory network comprised of genetic and epigenetic mechanisms, which are dysregulated during the progression of cancer. The abnormal activation of CDKs results in uncontrolled cancer cell proliferation and the induction of cancer stem cell characteristics. The levels of CDKs can be utilized to predict the prognosis and treatment response of cancer patients, and further understanding of the function and underlying mechanisms of CDKs in human tumors would pave the way for future cancer therapies that effectively target CDKs. Defects in the regulation of cell cycle and mutations in the genes coding cell-cycle regulatory proteins lead to unrestrained proliferation of cells leading to formation of tumors. A number of treatment modalities have been designed to combat dysregulation of cell cycle through affecting expression or activity of CDKs. However, effective application of these methods in the clinical settings requires recognition of the role of CDKs in the progression of each type of cancer, their partners, their interactions with signaling pathways and the effects of suppression of these kinases on malignant features. Thus, we designed this literature search to summarize these findings at cellular level, as well as in vivo and clinical levels.

Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms222312756.

Abstract
Non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) is a common disease with a high recurrence rate requiring lifetime surveillance. Although NMIBC is not life-threatening, it can progress to muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC), a lethal form of the disease. The management of the two diseases differs, and patients with MIBC require aggressive treatments such as chemotherapy and radical cystectomy. NMIBC patients at a high risk of progression benefit from early immediate cystectomy. Thus, identifying concordant markers for accurate risk stratification is critical to predict the prognosis of NMIBC. Candidate genetic biomarkers associated with NMIBC prognosis were screened by RNA-sequencing of 24 tissue samples, including 16 NMIBC and eight normal controls, and by microarray analysis (GSE13507). Lastly, we selected and investigated a mitotic checkpoint serine/threonine kinase, BUB1, that regulates chromosome segregation during the cell cycle. BUB1 gene expression was tested in 86 NMIBC samples and 15 controls by real-time qPCR. The performance of BUB1 as a prognostic biomarker for NMIBC was validated in the internal Chungbuk cohort (GSE13507) and the external UROMOL cohort (E-MTAB-4321). BUB1 expression was higher in NMIBC patients than in normal controls (p < 0.05), and the overexpression of BUB1 was correlated with NMIBC progression (log-rank test, p = 0.007). In in vitro analyses, BUB1 promoted the proliferation of bladder cancer cells by accelerating the G2/M transition of the cell cycle. Conclusively, BUB1 modulates the G2/M transition to promote the proliferation of bladder cancer cells, suggesting that it could serve as a prognostic marker in NMIBC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Abnormal BUB1B expression has been proven to be related to the poor prognosis of various tumors. This meta-analysis aimed to identify the prognostic role of BUB1B in patients with lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Relevant studies from the PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases and two public databases that stored sequencing data were retrieved. The standardized mean difference (SMD) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the association between the BUB1B expression level and clinical characteristics were calculated. Pooled hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% CIs were calculated to estimate the association between BUB1B expression and survival outcomes. RESULTS A total of 16 studies involving 2771 LUAD patients with BUB1B expression were included in this meta-analysis. Patients with older age showed low BUB1B expression. High BUB1B expression was associated with male sex, a smoking history, and an advanced TNM stage. High BUB1B expression was predictive of poor overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). In addition, no publication bias was found. CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis demonstrates that BUB1B is a significant biomarker for a poor prognosis and poor clinicopathological outcomes in patients with LUAD.
