Enhancement of tumor response by Wortmannin in C3H/HeJ hepatocarcinoma

Abstract

Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) has been known as one of key molecules in survival signaling. PI3K signaling is an important intracellular mediator which is involved in multiple cellular functions including proliferation, differentiation, anti-apoptosis, tumorigenesis, and angiogenesis. Inhibition of this molecule might be used in cancer treatment. Wortmannin has been reported to be an efficient radiosensitizer. The objective of this study was to explore whether PI3K inhibitor, Wortmannin, could potentiate the antitumor effect of radiation in vivo, particularly on radioresistant murine tumor.
