This study investigated the role of miR-155 in regulating osteosarcoma cell autophagy, chemosensitivity to Adriamycin (ADM), and PTEN-PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway.
Lastly, we showed that activation of the PI3K/AKT signal pathway is essential for the effects of ZIC2 on osteosarcoma cells, as the effects of ZIC2 on the osteosarcoma cells were reversed by a PI3K/AKT inhibitor.
Biological pathways implicated in osteosarcoma biology through genetic and other preclinical studies include PI3K/mTOR, WNT/βcatenin, TGFβ, RANKL/NF-κB, and IGF.
Calycosin, a Phytoestrogen Isoflavone, Induces Apoptosis of Estrogen Receptor-Positive MG-63 Osteosarcoma Cells via the Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase (PI3K)/AKT/Mammalian Target of Rapamycin (mTOR) Pathway.
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.
The relative protein expression level of p-PI3K, p-Akt, P53 and Bcl-2 in osteosarcoma cells after transfection with lncRNA- NC or lncRNA-LINC00628 were detected by Western blot.
SIX1 promoted the progression of osteosarcoma via regulating PTEN/PI3K/AKT signaling cascade, which might provide a new potent therapeutic target for osteosarcoma.
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.
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.
Western blot analysis was performed to detect the expression levels of phosphatidylinositol 3‑kinase (PI3K), phospho (p)‑PI3K, RAC‑alpha serine/threonine‑protein kinase (AKT), p‑AKT and NF‑κB inhibitor α (IκBα) in osteosarcoma cells transfected with H19 siRNA.
Here, we review these cancer signaling pathways, including Notch, Wnt, Hedgehog, phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT, and JAK/STAT, and their specific role in osteosarcoma.
In addition, we further found that those effects on osteosarcoma by NRSN2 are associated with the dysregulated PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling and Wnt/β-catenin signaling.
Although IP6 exposures had modest to minimal effects on cell proliferation, we observed reduced cellular glycolysis, down-regulation of PI3K/Akt signaling and suppression of OS metastatic progression.
