Abstract
The cell cycle is a highly regulated and orchestrated mechanism of life that ensures successive division of a cell and precise replication of cellular contents. Cyclins, cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs), and CDK inhibitors are three of the most critical cell cycle regulatory proteins that enable the smooth progression of cells through the different phases of cell cyclebefore and after division. The alteration of cell cycle-related proteins causes aberration in the normal cell cycle process, which is one of the pivotal causes of cancer and other diseases. Targeting cell cycle components has proven to be a valuable therapeutic strategy and leads to the development of novel anticancer therapeutic. The purpose of this book chapter is to summarize the literature and discuss the clinical significance of cell cycle-related proteins in cancers and other diseases, with a focus on identifying potential targets as therapeutic interventions for cancer patients.
