Functional analysis suggests that these lncRNAs were related to the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, the Wnt signaling pathway, and the G-protein coupled receptor signaling pathway, all of which have various, important roles in osteosarcoma development.
We found that hBMSC-MVs promoted U2OS cell proliferation and migration under hypoxia in vitro, and that was partially associated with the PI3K/AKT and HIF-1α pathways.
Overexpression of FER1L4 promotes the apoptosis and suppresses epithelial-mesenchymal transition and stemness markers via activating PI3K/AKT signaling pathway in osteosarcoma cells.
In addition, exogenous IGF‑1R expression abolished the tumor suppressive roles of miR‑939 in OS cells. miR‑939 was implicated in the deactivation of the PI3K/Akt pathway in OS in vitro and in vivo through regulating IGF‑1R expression.
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.
Therefore, the current study reveals that aclidinium bromide might inhibit osteosarcoma cell growth by regulating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, which suggests aclidinium bromide is a potential chemotherapeutic agent for osteosarcoma.
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>.
K-Ras<sup>G12V/Y40C</sup>-PI3K/AKT pathway regulates H1.4<sup>S35ph</sup> through PKA to promote the occurrence and development of osteosarcoma cancer.
Here, we have analyzed the therapeutic potential of the pan-PI3K inhibitor NVP-BKM120, which has recently entered clinical Phase II for treatment of PI3K-dependent cancers on three OS cell lines.
Moreover, <i>UCA1</i> increases CREB1 expression by functioning as a ceRNA against miR-582, thus promoting the EMT process via CREB1-mediated PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway and finally leading to osteosarcoma metastasis.
Our data first reported that DBH-AS1 may act as an oncogenic lncRNA by modulating the PI3K/Akt pathway in osteosarcoma, which may serve as a candidate prognostic biomarker and target for new therapies in osteosarcoma.
<i>In vivo</i> assays revealed that lnPTENP1 transfection significantly inhibited osteosarcoma tumor growth and significantly increased the protein expression and phosphorylation levels of PI3K and AKT.
SIX1 promoted the progression of osteosarcoma via regulating PTEN/PI3K/AKT signaling cascade, which might provide a new potent therapeutic target for osteosarcoma.
PP2A was a direct target of miR-21, which participated in the effects of ASBEL and miR-21 on the activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase 3/glycogen synthase kinase-3β (PI3K/AKT/GSK3β) and mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular regulated protein kinase (MEK/ERK) signaling pathways as well as the enhancement of osteosarcoma cell proliferation, migration, and invasion.
