Abstract
Previous studies have suggested that corticotroph tumours are associated with the overexpression of cyclin E and that the inactivation of cyclin-dependent kinases, which activate cyclin E, may have antisecretory and antiproliferative effects. Seliciclib, also known as R-roscovitine, is a pituitary-targeting agent shown to inhibit the growth of corticotroph tumour cells via cyclin E and retinoblastoma protein-mediated pathways. A recent study investigated the role of seliciclib in regulating biochemical parameters in a small number of patients with Cushing's disease, providing preliminary data on its possible therapeutic effectiveness in treating this disorder.
以往的研究表明,皮质营养肿瘤与细胞周期蛋白 E 的过度表达有关,而激活细胞周期蛋白 E 的细胞周期蛋白依赖性激酶失活可能具有抗分泌和抗增殖作用。Seliciclib 又称 R-roscovitine,是一种垂体靶向药物,可通过细胞周期蛋白 E 和视网膜母细胞瘤蛋白介导的途径抑制肾上腺皮质肿瘤细胞的生长。最近的一项研究调查了赛力昔单抗在调节少数库欣病患者生化指标方面的作用,为其在治疗这种疾病方面可能的疗效提供了初步数据。
