PKB/Akt-Dependent Regulation of Cell Motility

Xue, G., Hemmings, B. A.·2013·JNCI Journal of the National Cancer Institute

Abstract

The prosurvival activity of phosphoinositide 3 kinase (PI3K)/Akt (also known as protein kinase B, PKB) pathway has been investigated in great detail in human physiology and disease. Accumulating evidence is emerging that this signaling axis also actively engages with the migratory process in motile cells, including metastatic cancer cells. Interference with the role of PI3K/Akt-mediated cell motility impairs cellular development and attenuates malignant progression of cancer metastasis. Because metastasis is responsible for 90% of mortality in cancer patients, the acceleration of cancer cell spreading observed in association with hyperactivation of the PI3K pathway, triggered for example by chemotherapy/radiotherapy in the clinic, has heightened awareness of the conflict between "good drugs" and unfavorable effects. Here, we discuss recent studies on PI3K/Akt-regulated cell motility in both physiological and pathological settings, with the aim of a better understanding of how activities of the PI3K/Akt axis initiate and transmit "migratory signals" that stimulate cell movement. We focus in particular on its direct influence on cell migration and invasion, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and cancer metastasis.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
