Abstract

Dual blockade of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) has been revealed to be an effective treatment strategy for breast, ovarian and prostate cancer. However, the efficacy of this combination for the treatment of gastric cancer, and potential predictive therapeutic biomarkers remain unclear. Recent evidence suggests that the deficiency of AT-rich interactive domain containing protein 1A (ARID1A), which is a crucial chromatin remodeling gene, sensitizes tumor cells to PI3K and PARP inhibitors. Herein, we evaluated the therapeutic role of the combined treatment of PI3K inhibitor BKM120 and PARP inhibitor olaparib on gastric cancer cells, and explored ARID1A as a predictive biomarker. The results demonstrated that combined treatment with PI3K and PARP inhibitors effectively inhibited proliferation detected by MTS and clonogenic assay, invasion and migration by Transwell assay, of gastric cancer cells with ARID1A deficiency. Mechanistically, dual blockade of PI3K and PARP in ARID1A-depleted gastric cancer cells significantly increased apoptosis detected by flow cytometry, and induced DNA damage by immunofluorescent staining. Taken together, these data suggest that the combined treatment with PI3K...Continue Reading

Ataxia telangiectasia (MDS)

Ataxia telangiectasia is a rare neurodegenerative diseases caused by defects in the ATM gene, which is involved in DNA damage recognition and repair pathways. Here is the latest research on this autosomal recessive disease.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis

Apoptosis in Cancer

Apoptosis is an important mechanism in cancer. By evading apoptosis, tumors can continue to grow without regulation and metastasize systemically. Many therapies are evaluating the use of pro-apoptotic activation to eliminate cancer growth. Here is the latest research on apoptosis in cancer.

Breast Cancer Triple-N

Breast cancer cells have receptors for estrogen, progesterone, HER2 receptors (also called ERBB2). Triple-negative breast cancers do not have any of these receptors. Here are the latest discoveries pertaining to triple-negative breast cancers.

Cell Migration

Cell migration is involved in a variety of physiological and pathological processes such as embryonic development, cancer metastasis, blood vessel formation and remoulding, tissue regeneration, immune surveillance and inflammation. Here is the latest research.

Breast Cancer: BRCA1 & BRCA2

Mutations involving BRCA1, found on chromosome 17, and BRCA2, found on chromosome 13, increase the risk for specific cancers, such as breast cancer. Discover the last research on breast cancer BRCA1 and BRCA2 here.
