SNHG16 may activate phosphorylation of AKT and upregulate the expression of MMP9 to promote cell proliferation, invasion and migration of ovarian cancer.
Taken all data together, these findings demonstrated that the absence of SMURF1 repressed cell proliferation, invasive capability, and EMT process in ovarian cancer through DAB2IP/AKT/Skp2 signaling loops, suggesting that SMURF1 may serve as a new potential therapeutic agent for ovarian cancer.
The addition of VEGF, IGF-1, and IL-8 weakened the inhibitory effect of DIRAS3 on ERK/AKT activity and reduced DIRAS3-mediated TFEB or FOXo3a nuclear localization and MAPLC3B expression in ovarian cancer cells.
The occurrence of ARID1A mutations and alterations in the PI3K/AKT pathway in endometriosis and endometriosis-associated ovarian carcinomas, as well as the possible functional and clinical implications are discussed in this review.
The PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway is considered as a promising therapeutic target in the treatment of ovarian cancer (OC); however, inhibition of this pathway only exhibited moderate clinical efficacy when tested clinically.
These data suggested that PI3K induced epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and promoted cell migration and invasion by activating the PI3K/AKT pathway in ovarian cancer.
This is the first evidence that Tan-Ⅰ induced apoptosis and promoted autophagy via the inactivation of PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway on ovarian cancer and further inhibited tumour growth, which might be considered as effective strategy.
Together, REDD1 and p-AKT over-expression may serve as a prognostic biomarker in OC, but KRAS mutations and REDD1 protein over-expression were not correlated in OC.
We utilized ovarian cancer cell line, Caov3, cells to investigate the effect of paclitaxel on EGFR-mediated MAP kinase and AKT activation, and the expression of survivin.
