CDK6 Cancer Research Results

CDK6, Cyclin-dependent kinase 6: Click to Expand ⟱
Source:
Type:
Cyclin-dependent kinase 6 (CDK6) is another important regulator of the cell cycle, particularly involved in the transition from the G1 phase to the S phase.
CDK6 is frequently overexpressed in various cancers, and its expression levels can serve as a prognostic marker. Targeting CDK6 with specific inhibitors, such as palbociclib (which also targets CDK4), has shown promise in clinical settings, particularly in hormone receptor-positive breast cancer.
