Exploiting p70 S6 kinase as a target for ovarian cancer

Expert Opinion on Therapeutic Targets
Carman K M Ip, Alice S T Wong

Abstract

The p70 S6 kinase (p70(S6K)) is frequently active in ovarian and a wide range of cancer types, and it has a crucial role in several processes considered hallmarks of cancer. Therefore, blocking p70(S6K) expression or activity may present a promising strategy for anticancer treatment. The current understanding of the molecular mechanisms that govern p70(S6K) regulation as well as its tumorigenic effects, which are involved in the initiation and progression in ovarian cancer, in particular the emerging new role of p70(S6K) in cell migration, which is a prerequisite of tumor metastasis. The p70(S6K) cellular substrates and/or interacting proteins. The current state of drugs that target this kinase, either alone or in combination with other targeted agents. Targeting p70(S6K) through the use of small-molecule inhibitors, microRNAs and natural compounds may represent a beneficial new avenue for cancer therapy and opens new areas of investigation in p70(S6K) biology.
