Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecologic malignancy in the United States, with an estimated 22,530 new cases and 13,980 deaths in 2019. Recent studies have indicated that the phosphoinositol 3 kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), as well as the nuclear factor-κ light chain enhancer of activated B cells (NFκB) pathways are highly mutated and/or hyper-activated in a majority of ovarian cancer patients, and are associated with advanced grade and stage disease and poor prognosis. In this review, we will investigate PI3K/AKT/mTOR and their interconnection with NFκB pathway in ovarian cancer cells.
卵巢癌是美国最致命的妇科恶性肿瘤,2019年估计有22,530例新发病例和13,980例死亡病例。最近的研究表明,磷脂酰肌醇3激酶(PI3K)/蛋白激酶B(AKT)/雷帕霉素哺乳动物靶蛋白(mTOR)以及活化B细胞核因子κB轻链增强子(NFκB)通路在大多数卵巢癌患者中高度突变和/或过度激活,并且与高级别和晚期疾病以及不良预后相关。在本综述中,我们将研究卵巢癌细胞中PI3K/AKT/mTOR及其与NFκB通路的相互联系。
