Oncogenic Roles of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR Axis

TL;DR: Possible mechanisms by which the PI3K/AKT/mTOR axis contributes to oncogenic transformation include stimulation of proliferation, survival, metabolic reprogramming, and invasion/metastasis, as well as suppression of autophagy and senescence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibition of the mTORC1 pathway suppresses intestinal polyp formation and reduces mortality in ApcΔ716 mice

TL;DR: It is proposed that the mTOR inhibitors may be efficacious for therapy and prevention of colonic adenomas and cancers with Wnt signaling activation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inactivation of chemokine (C-C motif) receptor 1 (CCR1) suppresses colon cancer liver metastasis by blocking accumulation of immature myeloid cells in a mouse model

TL;DR: It is suggested that CCR1 antagonists can provide antimetastatic therapies for patients with disseminated colon cancer in the liver because of their role in tumor invasion and metastasis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Loss of SMAD4 from colorectal cancer cells promotes CCL15 expression to recruit CCR1+ myeloid cells and facilitate liver metastasis.

TL;DR: In human CRC cells, loss of SMAD4 leads to up-regulation of CCL15 expression, a human ortholog of mouse CCL9, which facilitates tumor invasion and metastasis and could prevent metastasis of CRC to liver.
