AdP promoted apoptosis in CDDP-resistant GC cells by suppressing the PI3K/AKT/ARNT signaling pathway and might be considered a candidate agent for the clinical treatment of cisplatin-resistant GC.
In addition, the PI3K-Akt and MAPK signaling pathways are involved in the effects of the miR-129-5p/SLC2A3 axis, regulating GC glucose metabolism and growth.
In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of combined treatment with Notch1 signaling blocker DAPT and PI3K/Akt signal blocker LY294002 on metastasis of gastric cancer.
This is the first time this extensive panel of 9 genes within PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway has been studied in GC to clarify the biological role of this pathway in GC and develop new strategies for this malignancy.
To define the inhibitory and pro-apoptotic effects of the two PI3K inhibitors BEZ235 and BKM120 in three human colon cancer (HT-29, HCT-116 and DLD-1) and three gastric cancer (NCI-n87, AGS and MKN-45), cell lines with different PIK3CA gene mutation status were used.
Taken together, these data suggest that the combined treatment with PI3K inhibitor BKM120 and PARP inhibitor olaparib may be a promising therapeutic regimen for the treatment of gastric cancer, and ARID1A deficiency could serve as a potential predictive therapeutic biomarker.
Furthermore, knockdown of UBE2C using siRNA markedly reduced the level of phosphorylation AURKA (p‑AURKA) via Wnt/β‑catenin and PI3K/Akt signaling pathways suppressed the occurrence and development of gastric cancer.
LOC101928316 molecular mechanism investigates suggested that LOC101928316 can regulate PI3K-Akt-mTOR signaling pathway and change the GC development progression in vivo and in vitro.
PIK3R3, the gene that encodes the PI3K regulatory subunit p55γ, is over-expressed in glioblastoma and ovarian cancers, but its expression in gastric cancer (GC) is not known.
Overexpression of ZIC1 results in inactivation of Shh, PI(3)K and MAPK signaling pathways, as well as regulation of multiple downstream targets which are essential for the development and progression of gastric cancer.
The aim of the present study was to investigate the mechanism of microRNA-4295 (miR-4295), which regulates cisplatin (DDP)-induced apoptosis in GC cells through the leucine-rich repeats and immunoglobulin-like domains 1 (LRIG1)-mediated epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)/phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt) signaling pathway.
The experimental methods are as follows: (1) The proliferation of HGC-27 cells inhibited by Apatinib and LY294002 was observed by 3-(4,5)-dimethylthiahiazo-(z-y1)-3,5-diphenytetrazoli- umromide (MTT) assay; (2) flow cytometry was adopted to detect the apoptosis of cells after they were treated with drugs and the positive control; (3) different effects of varying concentrations of Apatinib on apoptosis-related genes and proteins, B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2), Bcl-2-associated X protein (Bax) and cysteine-aspartic acid protease (Caspase) 9, were detected via fluorescence quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blotting (WB), and the effects of different concentrations of Apatinib on the protein expressions of PI3K, phosphorylated (p)-PI3K, Akt and p-Akt were detected by Western blotting.
Spry2 was a direct target of miR-592 and Spry2 overexpression partially counteracted the effects of miR-592. miR-592 induced the EMT and promoted its progression in GC via the PI3K/AKT and MAPK/ERK signaling pathways by inhibiting Spry2.
