Title High levels of p110δ PI3K expression in solid tumor cells suppress PTEN activity, generating cellular sensitivity to p110δ inhibitors through PTEN activation.
URL
Abstract Text Class IA PI3K isoforms have divergent, nonredundant cell biological roles. In untransformed cells and tissues, p110α and p110β are ubiquitously expressed, whereas p110δ expression is highly enriched in leukocytes. High levels of p110δ expression have been documented in some solid tumor cell lines, but the functional role is unknown. This study aimed to elucidate the link between elevated expression of p110δ PI3K and cancer. We report that in breast and prostate cancer cells that contain leukocyte levels of p110δ, p110δ activity dampens the activity of the PTEN tumor suppressor. Indeed, inactivation of p110δ in these cells led to PTEN activation, suppression of Akt phosphorylation, and inhibition of cell proliferation, with inhibition of PTEN activity being able to counterbalance p110δ inactivation. Likewise, forced overexpression of p110δ in cells with low p110δ expression reduced PTEN activity, resulting in increased Akt phosphorylation. Our data indicate that the oncogenic potential of p110δ PI3K overexpression might at least partially act through PTEN inactivation, and that p110δ-selective PI3K inhibitors can have a dual antitumor mechanism, namely by directly inhibiting p110δ signaling and by a broader inhibition of class I PI3K activity through PTEN activation. These data may have important implications in the intervention of breast cancer.

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.
