1 Exposure of the cells to TGF-beta1 activated the Smad2/3 and Akt/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathways, and this effect was inhibited by metformin, suggesting that metformin inhibits TGF-beta1-induced-EMT through the down-regulation of the Smad pathway in PANC-1 cells and the downregulation of the Akt/mTOR pathway in BxPC-3 cells. Metformin AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 Homo sapiens
