Abstract—Schwann cells proliferation is the main characterize of kinds PNS inflammation diseases. It has been well documented that cyclin D3 /CDK11p58 complex inhibits cell function through multiple mechanisms, but the mechanism of cyclin D3/CDK11p58 complex exerts its repressive role in the Schwann cells proliferation remains to be identified. In the present investigation, we demonstrated that the expression of CDK11p58 were upregulated in the inflammation caused by LPS, a main part of bactria. Cyclin D3 and the 58-kDa isoform of cyclin-dependent kinase 11 (CDK11p58) interacted with each other mainly in nuclear region, repressed Schwann cells proliferation and induced cell apoptosis. Overexpression of CDK11p58 expression might enhance this process, while silence of cyclin D3 reverting it. This work demonstrates for the first time the role of cyclin D3/CDK11p58 complex in repressing the Schwann cells proliferation and inducing its apoptosis. KEY WORDS: CDK11p58; Cyclin D3; proliferation; apoptosis; Schwann cells; lipopolysaccharide.

cellular and molecular changes in the nerve segment distal to the injury site termed “Wallerian degeneration”. Schwann cells proliferation during Wallerian degeneration results in a marked increase in Schwann cell number in the distal stump [4]. In the schwann cells proliferation, may mechanisms have been invested, including the role of cyclin and the cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK1 through CDK11), but the prccise mechanisms in regulating the proliferation of Schwann cells are still not clarified [5–13]. The PITSLRE protein kinases, and is known as CDK11, are parts of the large family of p34cdc2-related kinases, whose functions appear to be linked with cellcycle control, apoptosis, neuronal physiology, differentiation and transcription [14–16]. The larger CDK11p110 isoforms are associated with cyclin L and various splicing factors, and are involved in the regulation of transcription and RNA splicing in proliferating cells [17–19]. The smaller CDK11p58 isoforms result from translation initiation at an internal ribosome entry site in the CDK11p110 mRNA, and play an important role in mitosis [14, 20]. Recent studies also revealed that CDK11 p 5 8 promotes centrosome

INTRODUCTION Schwann cells proliferation is crucial for the peripheral nervous system (PNS) development, degeneration and regeneration after injury, and tumorigenesis [1–3]. Injury in PNS initiates a sequence of degenerative
