Cyclin D3 and cyclin-dependent kinases 6(CDK6) are components of the core cell cycle machinery driving cell proliferation, and generally amplified in T acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL). The pro-survival function of cyclin D3/CDK6 in T-ALL cells via phosphorylating/inactivating PFKP and PKM2 (two key enzymes in glycolysis) is recently addressed. Targeting cyclin D3/CDK6 is a promising method for T-ALL therapy. As tumor microenvironment cell play critical roles in regulating tumor progression, it is critical/urgent to understand the functions of cyclin D3/CDK6 in tumor microenvironment cells. Our preliminary study showed that cyclin D3/CDK6 expression was significantly upregulated in T cells under activation condition. Ablation of cyclin D3 or CFK6 dramatically decreased regulatory T cell (Tregs) population without inducing cell apoptosis. Tregs promote tumor progression by inhibiting T help cells and CD8+ cytotoxic T cells. We therefore hypothesized that cyclin D3/CDK6 regulate T-ALL progression via T-ALL prosurvival and Tregs differentiation. This study will provide the rational to treat T-ALL by targeting cyclin D3/CDK6.

细胞周期蛋白D3和Cyclin依赖性激酶6（CDK6）是核心细胞循环机械驱动细胞增殖的成分，通常在T急性淋巴细胞白血病（T-ALL）中放大。最近，最近解决了细胞周期蛋白D3/CDK6在T-ALL细胞中通过磷酸化/灭活PFKP和PKM2（糖酵解中的两种关键酶）在T-ALL细胞中的促生物功能。靶向细胞周期蛋白D3/CDK6是T-ALL治疗的一种有前途的方法。由于肿瘤微环境细胞在调节肿瘤进展中起关键作用，因此了解细胞周期蛋白D3/CDK6在肿瘤微环境细胞中的功能至关重要/迫切。我们的初步研究表明，在激活条件下，在T细胞中，细胞周期蛋白D3/CDK6的表达显着上调。细胞周期蛋白D3或CFK6的消融显着降低了调节性T细胞（Tregs）种群，而无需诱导细胞凋亡。 Tregs通过抑制T帮助细胞和CD8+细胞毒性T细胞来促进肿瘤进展。因此，我们假设Cyclin D3/CDK6通过T-All Prosurvival和Tregs分化来调节T-ALL进展。这项研究将通过靶向细胞周期蛋白D3/CDK6来提供理性的治疗T-all。
