Cucurbitacin B induces autophagy and apoptosis by suppressing CIP2A/PP2A/mTORC1 signaling axis in human cisplatin resistant gastric cancer cells
1 Jan 2017
Abstract excerpt
Cancerous inhibitor of protein phosphatase 2A (CIP2A) is a human oncoprotein that is overexpressed in multiple kinds of tumors including gastric cancer (GC). Mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) over-activation is detected in GC and many other cancers. Previous study found that CIP2A/mTORC1 controls cell growth and autophagy through direct association. CIP2A plays an 'oncogenic nexus' in several...
