Figure 7.

Mechanism diagram for interaction between bortezomib and cyclin D1 is displayed in the figure below. Bortezomib can regulate expression of cyclin D1 by inhibiting the activity of NF- κB and down-regulating expression of EIF4EmRNA to reduce expression of CCND1mRNA. Cyclin D1/CDK4 activity plays an important role in the induction of NOXA protein, thus directly enhancing the anti-tumor effect of bortezomib. Besides, cyclin D1 can enhance the effect of bortezomib on PERK/CHOP axis and activate unfolded protein response (UPR) to induce the apoptosis pathway of bortezomib through endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress.

Abbreviations: NF-κB, nuclear factor kappa-B; EIF4E, eukaryotic initiation factor 4E; NOXA, A BH3-only member of Bcl-2; AKT, protein kinase B; PERK, PKR-like ER kinase; CHOP, C/EBP-homologous protein; UPR, unfolded protein response; ER, endoplasmic reticulum; Rb, retinoblastoma gene; E2F, the E2F family of DNA-binding transcription factors; P, phosphoric acid.
