Dual inhibition of EGFR at protein and activity level via combinatorial blocking of PI4KIIα as anti-tumor strategy

Our previous studies indicate that phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase IIα can promote the growth of multi-malignant tumors viaHER-2/PI3K andMAPK pathways.However, the molecular mechanisms of this pathway and its potential for clinical application remain unknown. In this study, we found that PI4KIIα could...

Description
Summary:Our previous studies indicate that phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase IIα can promote the growth of multi-malignant tumors viaHER-2/PI3K andMAPK pathways.However, the molecular mechanisms of this pathway and its potential for clinical application remain unknown. In this study, we found that PI4KIIα could be an ideal combinatorial target for EGFR treatment via regulating EGFR degradation. Results showed that PI4KIIα knockdown reduced EGFR protein level, and the expression ofPI4KIIα shows a strong correlation with EGFR in human breast cancer tissues ( r = 0.77, P
