Genetic Analysis Of Pi3k And Mtor Inhibition In U87mg Glioblastoma Cell Line, Carl G. Litif
Genetic Analysis Of Pi3k And Mtor Inhibition In U87mg Glioblastoma Cell Line, Carl G. Litif
Theses and Dissertations
NVP-BEZ235 is a Glioblastoma Multiform chemotherapeutic dual PI3K/mTOR pathway inhibitor created in 2008 and has since been proven experimentally to induce pluripotentcy in oncological cell populations. The inhibition of PI3K and mTOR has shown to coerce phenotypes associated with stem cell markers, most notably OCT4. It is necessary to understand the genetic composure of how PI3K/mTOR inhibited tumor cells are bypassing the canonical pathway for proliferation and growth and utilizing other parallel sources for tumor invasion into other neural regions. Taking a genetic approach with RNA-sequencing allowed us to gain insight into how glioblastoma interact with cytoskeleton factors MAPK4 and …

Curcumin is an important bioactive component of turmeric and also one of the important natural products, which has been investigated extensively. The precise mode of action of curcumin and its impact on system level protein networks are still not well studied. To identify the curcumin governed regulatory action on protein interaction network (PIN), an interectome was created based on 788 key proteins, extracted from PubMed literatures, and constructed by using STRING and Cytoscape programs. The PIN rewired by curcumin was a scale-free, extremely linked biological system. MCODE plug-in was used for sub-modulization analysis, wherein we identified 25 modules; ClueGo plug-in …
Investigating The Localization Of Foxo Transcription Factors In Glioblastoma, Leetoria Hinojosa
Investigating The Localization Of Foxo Transcription Factors In Glioblastoma, Leetoria Hinojosa
Theses and Dissertations
The Phosphatidylinositol 3 Kinase (PI3K) pathway is an essential intracellular signaling pathway that regulates cellular growth, survival, and fate. Canonically, the activation of this pathway removes forkhead box subfamily O transcription factors (FOXO -1, -3, and -4) from the nucleus. However, in cancer cells such as glioblastoma multiforme, FOXO factors are at least in part nuclear despite the activation of the PI3K pathway. Previous research indicated that FOXO3 localization was not affected when the pathway was inhibited in breast cancer cells, which challenged the conventional paradigms for FOXO factor regulation. Therefore, we were interested in investigating the nuclear localization of …
