( A-C ) HEYA8-MDR cells were treated with 100 nM paclitaxel and 15 µM duloxetine in combination with 10 µM Ro-3306 or 1 µM avotaciclib for 48 h. ( A ) Cells were visualized via microscopy. ( B , C ) Apoptotic cell death were determined by Annexin V-FITC/PI staining using flow cytometry. Statistical graphs of apoptotic cells were shown. ( D , E ) The cells were treated with 100 nM paclitaxel and 15 µM duloxetine in combination with 10 µM Ro-3306 for 12 h. ( D ) The expression levels of CDK1 and cyclin B1 were detected by immunoblot analysis. ( E ) The expression levels of apoptotic cleaved PARP and the antiapoptotic Bcl-2 family were detected by immunoblot analysis. The relative optical densities were quantified using ImageJ software. The data are presented as the mean ± SD of the percentage or the fold change relative to the control ( n = 3, *** p < 0.001; ns, not significantly different).

    Proposed model for the regulation of MLK3 by CDK1 and CDK2 in ovarian cancer cell cycle progression. Phosphorylation of MLK3 by CDK2 on Ser770 during late G1/S phase increases MLK3 activity, which causes activation of the JNK pathway. In late G2 and early M phases, phosphorylation of MLK3 by CDK1 on Ser548 inhibits MLK3 activity and causes inactivation of the JNK pathway, thereby allowing ovarian cancer cells to progress through the cell cycle.
