Clinical, Journal: Recent clinical advances in PI3K inhibitors on colorectal cancer. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 9, 2022 Inhibitors targeting PI3K, a key protein in the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway, have a positive effect on the treatment of colorectal cancer. Based on the role of PI3K/Akt/mTOR in the occurrence and development of colorectal cancer and its clinical application, this article reviews the PI3K inhibitors that have been on the market or are in clinical trials.

Journal: Ribophorin II promotes the epithelial-mesenchymal transition and aerobic glycolysis of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma via regulating reactive oxygen species-mediated Phosphatidylinositol-3-Kinase/Protein Kinase B activation. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 9, 2022 In xenografted mice, silencing RPN2 expression reduced tumor growth, ROS production, and levels of Ki-67, Vimentin, LDHA, and p-Akt/Akt, but enhanced E-cadherin expression. In conclusion, our data suggested that RPN2 promoted the proliferation, migration, EMT, and glycolysis of LSCC via modulating ROS-mediated PI3K/Akt activation.
- |||||||||| Journal: Dysregulated PI3K Signaling in B Cells of CVID Patients. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 9, 2022
In contrast to CVID, increased basal activity of PI3K in patients with a gain-of-function mutation in PIK3CD and activated PI3K delta syndrome (APDS) did not result in impaired BCR-induced AKT-mTOR-S6 phosphorylation, highlighting that signaling defects in B cells in CVID and APDS patients are fundamentally different and that assessing responses to BCR stimulation is an appropriate confirmative diagnostic test for APDS. The active PI3K signaling in vivo may render autoreactive T-betCD21 B cells in CVID at the same time to be more sensitive to mTOR or PI3K inhibition.
- |||||||||| Preclinical, Review, Journal, IO biomarker: Vibrio harveyi infections induce production of proinflammatory cytokines in murine peritoneal macrophages via activation of p38 MAPK and NF-κB pathways, but reversed by PI3K/AKT pathways. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 8, 2022
The secretion of IL-1β, IL-6, IL-12, and TNF-α were considerably reduced when the p38 MAPK and NF-κB signaling pathways were blocked, whereas blocking of AKT significantly increased the expression of IL-1β, IL-6, IL-12, and TNF-α. These findings indicate that V. harveyi infection induces inflammatory responses in murine PMs via activation of p38 MAPK and NF-κB pathways, which are partly mediated by TLR2, but are inhibited by PI3K/AKT pathways.

Biomarker, Review, Journal, Tumor Mutational Burden, BRCA Biomarker, PARP Biomarker, PD(L)-1 Biomarker, IO biomarker: Updates on breast biomarkers. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 8, 2022 Importantly, in the metastatic setting, numerous predictive biomarkers have emerged, including recommendations for germline BRCA mutation testing for all metastatic patients (to determine if PARP inhibitor therapy is an option) and other ER-/HER2-dependent biomarkers such as PD-L1 (for potential immunotherapy in triple negative patients) and PIK3CA mutation status (for potential PI3K inhibitor therapy in ER-positive metastatic patients). Other less common biomarkers of targeted therapy options (e.g., MSI/MMR, TMB, NTRK) as well as comprehensive genomic profiling to identify uncommon targets are also available in the metastatic setting to determine additional treatment options.

Journal, IO biomarker: Cinnamaldehyde Downregulation of Sept9 Inhibits Glioma Progression through Suppressing Hif-1α via the Pi3k/Akt Signaling Pathway. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 8, 2022 Pi3k inhibitor (LY294002) was used for interfering with cells, and the results found CA to demonstrate a similar effect...It is suggested that the mechanism of Sept9 under hypoxia regulation can be realized through the Pi3k/Akt pathway. This study proves for the first time that CA is an effective drug for inhibiting the proliferation of glioma through Sept9 and reveals Sept9 to be related to the Pi3k/Akt pathway in terms of tumor microenvironment, providing a molecular basis for the further study of CA in glioma treatment.

Class II Phosphatidylinositol-3-kinases Promotes CCR7 Recycling to the Cell Membrane in Human T-Cells (Exhibit Hall; P161) - Apr 8, 2022 - Abstract #IMMUNOLOGY2022IMMUNOLOGY_1068; To determine the site within the cells where CCR7 was retained following inhibition of only class II PI3K, we used HEK-293 cells transfected with CCR7-eGFP and the trans-Golgi network (TGN) marker, TPST2-mCherry, ± 1μM wortmannin, which is required to inhibit class II PI3K in HEK-293 cells. We found that after receptor internalization with CCL19 and 30 minutes of recycling, CCR7-eGFP remained within the TGN in the presence of wortmannin, in contrast CCR7-eGFP, which recycled to the cell membrane in the absence of wortmannin, demonstrating a role for class II PI3K in CCR7 recycling.

Here, we review currently available agents targeting PI3K, discuss their potential role in HER2+ breast cancer, and provide an overview of ongoing trials of PI3K inhibitors in HER2+ disease. Additionally, we review the landscape of PIK3CA mutational testing and highlight the gaps in knowledge that could present potential barriers in the effective application of PI3K inhibitors for treatment of HER2+ breast cancer.

Journal: Saikosaponin-D Mitigates Oxidation in SH-SY5Y Cells Stimulated by Glutamate Through Activation of Nrf2 Pathway: Involvement of PI3K. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 5, 2022 Furthermore, addition of LY294002, a selective inhibitor of PI3K (phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase), blocked saikosaponin-D-caused Nrf2 nuclear translocation and reversed the protection of saikosaponin-D against glutamate in SH-SY5Y cells...Taken together, our results indicated that saikosaponin-D enhanced cellular antioxidant capacity through not only intrinsic free radical-scavenging activity but also induction of endogenous antioxidant enzyme activities and HO-1 expression mediated, at least in part, by activating PI3K and subsequently Nrf2 nuclear translocation, thereby protecting the SH-SY5Y cells from glutamate-induced oxidative cytotoxicity. In concert, these data raise the possibility that saikosaponin-D may be an attractive candidate for prevention and treatment of AD and other diseases related to oxidation in the future.

Journal: The antipsychotic aripiprazole induces peripheral antinociceptive effects through PI3Kγ/NO/cGMP/K pathway activation. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 5, 2022 The PI3K inhibitor (AS605240), but not rapamycin (mTOR kinase inhibitor), reversed the peripheral antinociceptive effect induced by Aripiprazole...The same was seen using glibenclamide, an ATP-dependent K channel blocker...The injection of cGMP-specific phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitor zaprinast, potentiated the antinociceptive effect induced by a low dose of aripiprazole. The results provide evidence that aripiprazole induces peripheral antinociceptive effects via PI3K/NO/cGMP/K pathway activation.

Journal, IO biomarker: IGF-1 regulates astrocytic phagocytosis and inflammation through the p110α isoform of PI3K in a sex-specific manner. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 5, 2022 AG66 suppressed the IGF-1 effect on cytokine expression and counteracted the IGF-1-produced phagocytosis decrease in male reactive astrocytes. Results suggest that sex-differences in the effect of IGF-1 on the AKT-phosphorylation could be due to a lower expression of the p110α in female and that IGF-1-effects on the inflammatory response and phagocytosis of male reactive astrocytes are mediated by p110α/PI3K subunit.

Journal: Identifying pathways regulating the oncogenic p53 family member ΔNp63 provides therapeutic avenues for squamous cell carcinoma. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 5, 2022 In particular, dual inhibition of the PI3K and mTOR pathways reduced ΔNp63 more effectively than single pathway inhibition, and broad-spectrum histone deacetylase inhibitors showed a time-dependent biphasic response, with high level downregulation at the transcriptional level within 24 h. In addition to furthering our understanding of ΔNp63 regulation in squamous cells, these data identify novel drug combinations that may be useful for p63-based therapy of SCC.
