mTOR Signaling and Cancer Progression03:03

mTOR Signaling and Cancer Progression

The mammalian target of rapamycin or mTOR protein was discovered in 1994 due to its direct interaction with rapamycin. The protein gets its name from a yeast homolog called TOR. The mTOR protein complex in mammalian cells plays a major role in balancing anabolic processes such as the synthesis of proteins, lipids, and nucleotides and catabolic processes, such as autophagy in response to environmental cues, such as availability of nutrients and growth factors.

PI3K/mTOR/AKT Signaling Pathway01:22

PI3K/mTOR/AKT Signaling Pathway

The mammalian target of rapamycin  (mTOR) is a serine/threonine kinase that regulates growth, proliferation, and cell survival in response to hormones, growth factors, or nutrient availability. This kinase exists in two structurally and functionally distinct forms: mTOR complex 1  (mTORC1) and mTOR complex 2  (mTORC2). The first form (mTORC1) is composed of a rapamycin-sensitive Raptor and proline-rich Akt substrate, PRAS40. In contrast,  mTORC2 consists of a rapamycin-insensitive companion...
MAPK Signaling Cascades01:07

MAPK Signaling Cascades

Mitogen-activated protein kinase, or MAPK pathway, activates three sequential kinases to regulate cellular responses such as proliferation, differentiation, survival, and apoptosis. The canonical MAPK pathway starts with a mitogen or growth factor binding to an RTK. The activated RTKs stimulate Ras, which recruits Raf or MAP3 Kinase (MAPKKK), the first kinase of the MAPK signaling cascade. Raf further phosphorylates and activates MEK or MAP2 Kinases (MAPKK), which in turn phosphorylates MAP...
cAMP-dependent Protein Kinase Pathways01:25

cAMP-dependent Protein Kinase Pathways

Cyclic Adenosine Monophosphate (cAMP) is an essential second messenger that activates protein kinase A (PKA) and regulates various biological processes. A single epinephrine molecule binds to GPCR and activates several heterotrimeric G proteins, each stimulating multiple adenylyl cyclase, amplifying the signal, and synthesizing large numbers of cAMP molecules. Small changes in cAMP concentration affect PKA activity. The binding of four cAMP molecules induces a conformational change in PKA,...
TGF - β Signaling Pathway01:16

TGF - β Signaling Pathway

The TGF-β signaling pathway regulates cell growth, differentiation, adhesion, motility, and development. TGF-β ligands that induce TGF-β signaling are synthesized in their latent form. Several proteases or cell surface receptors such as integrins act upon the latent form, releasing the active ligand. There are three types of mammalian TGF-βs: (TGF-β1, TGF-β2, and TGF-β3) that bind as homodimers or heterodimers to TGF-β receptors. The TGF-β receptors are of three kinds RI, RII, and RIII. The RI...

Summary

Overexpression of CA916798 contributes to multi-drug resistance in lung adenocarcinoma by activating the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway. Inhibiting this pathway reduces CA916798 levels and tumor growth.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Molecular Biology
  • Cancer Research

Background:

  • Multi-drug resistance (MDR) is a major challenge in cancer chemotherapy.
  • Our prior research linked CA916798 overexpression to MDR, but the mechanism was unclear.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To elucidate the mechanism by which CA916798 contributes to drug resistance in lung adenocarcinoma.
  • To investigate the role of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway in regulating CA916798 expression and its impact on chemoresistance.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of phosphorylated AKT, mTOR, and CA916798 levels in drug-resistant human adenocarcinoma samples.
  • Immunofluorescence and Co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) assays to assess CA916798 and AKT1 interaction.
  • In vitro studies using A549 and A549/CDDP cell lines.
  • In vivo studies using xenografted tumors in nude mice.
  • Pharmacological inhibition of PI3K (LY294002) and mTORC1 (rapamycin).

Main Results:

  • Elevated levels of phosphorylated AKT, phosphorylated mTOR, and CA916798 were observed in drug-resistant samples, correlating with resistance.
  • CA916798 expression positively correlated with AKT1 activation, suggesting a link to lung adenocarcinoma drug resistance.
  • AKT1 stimulates CA916798 expression via the mTOR pathway, with CA916798 downstream of PI3K/AKT/mTOR.
  • PI3K inhibition (LY294002) reduced CA916798 expression and tumor size in vivo.
  • Combined PI3K and mTORC1 inhibition showed a stronger effect on reducing CA916798 and tumor size.

Conclusions:

  • CA916798 plays a crucial role in mediating multi-drug resistance in lung adenocarcinoma.
  • The PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway regulates CA916798 expression, contributing to chemoresistance.
  • Targeting the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway, potentially with combined inhibitors, offers a promising strategy for overcoming drug resistance in lung adenocarcinoma.
