1 In this study we investigated the effect of combination treatment of rapamycin with isoflavones such as genistein and biochanin A on mTOR pathway and activation of Akt and eIF4E in human glioblastoma (U87) cells. Isoflavones AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 Homo sapiens
2 Our results show that combination treatment of rapamycin with isoflavones, especially biochanin A at 50 muM, decreased the phosphorylation of Akt and eIF4E proteins and rendered U87 cells more sensitive to rapamycin treatment when compared to cells treated with rapamycin alone. Isoflavones AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 Homo sapiens
