BRCA1-associated protein inhibits glioma cell proliferation and migration and glioma stem cell self-renewal via the TGF-β/PI3K/AKT/mTOR signalling pathway.
Taken together, we demonstrated a novel cellular mechanism that was dependent of the lncRNA-XIST/miR-126/IRS1/PI3K/Akt pathway in enhanced glucose metabolism in glioma.
Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells suppress growth and promote the apoptosis of glioma U251 cells through downregulation of the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.
Among the many possible mechanisms underlying its pathogenesis, hyperactivation of the PI3K/Akt pathway is essential to the occurrence and development of glioma through the loss of PTEN or somatic activating mutations in PIK3CA.
Sevoflurane downregulates insulin-like growth factor-1 to inhibit cell proliferation, invasion and trigger apoptosis in glioma through the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.
Therefore, the present study was conducted with aims of exploring the ability of MCL1 silencing to influence glioma cell senescence and apoptosis through the mediation of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt) signaling pathway.
We did whole exome sequencing for 11 GBM-PN cases and found that the percentage of TP53, PIK3CA, PIK3R1, or PTEN mutation in our GBM-PN cases (72.7%, 27.3%, 27.3%, and 27.3% respectively) was much higher than that in cases in TCGA GBM 2008, TCGA GBM 2013, and TCGA lower-grade glioma databases.
The goal of this study was therefore to identify magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS)-detectable metabolic biomarkers associated with IDHmut glioma response to the dual PI3K/(mTOR) inhibitor XL765.
Taken together, our findings present a novel mouse model for glioma demonstrating that the PI3K pathway is important for initiation of tumorigenesis and that disruption of downstream CREB signaling attenuates tumor expansion.
In the present study, KEGG PathwayFinder by gene correlation analysis was performed on the R2: Genomics Analysis and Visualization Platform, which revealed a high association between Ngb and the phosphatidylinositol 3‑kinase (PI3K)/AKT pathway using glioma data (GSE4290) from the Gene Expression Omnibus database.
Furthermore, knockdown of TRIM37 significantly reduced the levels of phosphorylated PI3K and Akt in U87MG cells, and an activator of PI3K/Akt signaling (SC79) partly reversed the inhibitory effects of si-TRIM37 on glioma cell proliferation and migration.
Reasons for treatment failure include poor penetration of agents into the brain and observations that blockade of PI3K or AKT minimally affects downstream mTOR activity in glioma.
