We proposed that VRK1 and H2A<sup>T120ph</sup> could be the potential targets for osteosarcoma diagnosis and treatment.HighlightsH2A<sup>T120ph</sup> is specifically promoted by Ras-PI3K pathway activation.H2A<sup>T120ph</sup> joins in the oncogenic effects of Ras-PI3K pathway on osteosarcoma.H2A<sup>T120ph</sup> regulates the transcription of Ras-PI3K-targeted genes.VRK1 takes part in the regulatory function of Ras-PI3K pathway on H2A<sup>T120ph</sup>.
Taken together, our results suggest that miR-497 modulates the sensitivity to cisplatin at least in part through PI3K/Akt pathway in osteosarcoma cells.
In conclusion, icariin possesses a reversal effect on multidrug resistance in MG-63/DOX cells through down-regulation of the MDR1 and the PI3K/Akt pathway, and has the potential to be an adjunct to chemotherapy for osteosarcoma.
Fangchinoline suppresses the proliferation, invasion and tumorigenesis of human osteosarcoma cells through the inhibition of PI3K and downstream signaling pathways.
In conclusion, the results of the present study indicated that CLDN12 promoted cell proliferation and migration through the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway in osteosarcoma cells, suggesting that CLDN12 may be a potential agent in the treatment of patients with osteosarcoma.
However, whether the malignant phenotype of osteosarcoma (OS) cells is regulated by the PI3K/Akt/FASN signaling pathway and how the PI3K family specific inhibitor, 2‑(4‑morpholinyl)‑8‑phenyl‑chromone (LY294002) affects the malignant phenotype of OS cells remains to be elucidated.
Collectively, these results suggested that TROP2 may promote OS cell proliferation and migration via PI3K/AKT signaling and may serve as a novel treatment target for OS.
Aplasia Ras homologue member Ⅰ overexpression inhibits tumor growth and induces apoptosis through inhibition of PI3K/Akt survival pathways in human osteosarcoma MG-63 cells in culture.
Inhibition of PI3K/Akt/mTORC1 signaling may be effective in osteosarcoma, but further studies are required to determine whether this pathway is active in a substantial subgroup of this heterogeneous tumor.
We also found that the activations of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) and protein kinase B (AKT) were considerably reduced after osteosarcoma cells were treated with Lv-shVEGF.
These findings suggest that galangin suppresses osteosarcoma cells by inhibiting their proliferation and invasion and accelerating their apoptosis, and the mechanism may be associated with the inhibition of PI3K and its downstream signaling pathway.
ISL could retard proliferation and promote apoptosis of U2OS cells possibly by suppressing the PI3K/Akt signalling pathway, indicating that it might be a potential therapeutic agent for osteosarcoma treatment.
Finally, we detected a time-dependent decrease in VEGF expression and considerably reduced phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) and protein kinase B (AKT) activation in osteosarcoma cells treated by Eag1 shRNA.
Our data revealed for the first time that MALAT1 increases stem cell-like properties by up-regulating RET via sponging miR-129-5p, and thus activates the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway and provides potential therapeutic targets for osteosarcoma treatment.
In summary, our data demonstrated that downregulation of HOXB7 inhibited proliferation, invasion, and tumorigenesis, partly through suppressing the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway in osteosarcoma cells.
This study investigated the role of miR-155 in regulating osteosarcoma cell autophagy, chemosensitivity to Adriamycin (ADM), and PTEN-PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway.
