1 Inhibition of the AKT/mTOR Pathway Augments the Anticancer Effects of Sorafenib in Thyroid Cancer. Sorafenib AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 Homo sapiens
2 RESULTS: The results indicate that sorafenib simultaneously inhibited the activities of the MAPK and PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathways in thyroid cancer cells. Sorafenib AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 Homo sapiens
3 Sorafenib in combination with PI3K/AKT/mTOR inhibition by NVP-BEZ235 or AKT siRNA enhanced apoptosis and proliferation suppression. Sorafenib AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 Homo sapiens
4 CONCLUSIONS: The evidence of this study suggests that a combinatorial approach that inhibits both the MAPK and PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathways exerts a greater antitumor effect than sorafenib alone in thyroid cancer cell lines. Sorafenib AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 Homo sapiens
