1 miR-33a-5p enhances the sensitivity of lung adenocarcinoma cells to celastrol by regulating mTOR signaling. celastrol mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase Homo sapiens
2 Western blot analysis revealed that the expression of mTOR, p-p70S6K and p-4EBP1 decreased following celastrol treatment. celastrol mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase Homo sapiens
3 These results suggested that mTOR was involved in the mechanism by which miR-33a-5p enhanced the sensitivity of lung adenocarcinoma cells to celastrol. celastrol mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase Homo sapiens
4 In addition, celastrol upregulated the expression of miR-33a-5p, and high expression of miR-33a-5p inhibited mTOR and its downstream effectors. celastrol mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase Homo sapiens
5 In summary, miR-33a-5p inhibited the proliferation of lung adenocarcinoma cells, enhanced the antitumor effect of celastrol, and improved sensitivity to celastrol by targeting mTOR in lung adenocarcinoma in vitro and in vivo. celastrol mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase Homo sapiens
