PI3 kinase integrates Akt and MAP kinase signaling pathways in the regulation of prostate cancer

Abstract excerpt

PI3 kinase (PI3K), Akt and MAP kinase (MAPK) pathways are central to many classical signaling cascades and are often de-regulated in many cancers. Due to this, inhibitors for a number of key signaling molecules in these pathways such as PI3K, Akt, mTOR, Raf and ERK are currently in clinical trials. In the current study, we investigated the effects of specific inhibition of these signaling molecules, alone or in...
