  • Cancer is the second most prevalent cause of death in the United States, causing 450,000 deaths per year. While substantial progress has been made in identifying some of the likely environmental and hereditary causes of cancer, there is a need for additional therapeutic modalities that target cancer and related diseases. In particular there is a need for therapeutic methods for treating diseases associated with dysregulated growth / proliferation.
  • Cancer is a complex disease arising after a selection process for cells with acquired functional capabilities like enhanced survival / resistance towards apoptosis and a limitless proliferative potential. Thus, it is preferred to develop drugs for cancer therapy addressing distinct features of established tumors.
  • the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway which is constitutively activated in many types of cancers, is one of the prominent pathway that promote tumor cell survival. Initial activation of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway occurs at the cell membrane, where the signal for pathway activation is propagated through class I A PI3K. Activation of PI3K can occur through tyrosine kinase growth factor receptors (e.g.
  • PDGF-R platelet- derived growth factor receptor
  • EGFR human epidermal growth factor 1 /2/3 receptor
  • IGF-1 R insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor
  • ILK integrin-linked kinase
  • CaMKK Ca2+/calmodul independent kinase kinase
  • DNA-PK nuclear DNA-dependent protein kinase
  • Ras Ras
  • PI3K Once PI3K is activated, it catalyzes phosphorylation of the D-3 position on phosphoinositides to generate the biologically-active phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5- triphosphate [PI(3,4,5)P3, PIP3] and phosphatidylinositol-3,4-bisphosphate [PI(3,4)P 2 , PIP2].
  • PIPs binds to the pleckstrin homology (PH) domains of phosphoinositide-dependent kinase 1 (PDK-1 ), AKT, and other PH-domain containing proteins, such as Rho and PLC. As the consequence of binding to PIP3, the proteins are translocated to the cell membrane and are subsequently activated.
  • PH pleckstrin homology
  • tumour suppressor PTEN phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10. antagonizes PI3K by dephosphorylating PIP3, thereby preventing translocation and activation of PDK1 , AKT and other signaling proteins.
  • AKT is the major effecter of PI3K, which elicits a broad range of downstream signaling events. It recognizes and phosphorylates the consensus sequence RXRXX(S/T) when surrounded by hydrophobic residues. As this sequence is present in many proteins, about 50 AKT substrates have been identified and validated. 3 ' 4 These substrates control key cellular processes such as apoptosis, cell cycle progression, transcription, and translation, stress adaptation, metabolism, and metastasis of tumor cells. For instance, AKT phosphorylates the FOXO subfamily of forkhead family transcription factors, which inhibits transcription of several pro-apoptotic genes, e.g. Fas-L, IGFBP1 and Bim.
  • AKT can directly regulate apoptosis by phosphorylating and inactivating pro-apoptotic proteins such as Bad, which control the release of cytochrome c from mitochondria, and apoptosis signal-regulating kinase-1 , a mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase involved in stress-induced and cytokine- induced cell death. 7
  • AKT can phosphorylate ⁇ kinase, which indirectly increases the activity of nuclear factor ⁇ and stimulates the transcription of pro-survival genes.
  • AKT cyclin dependent kinase inhibitors
  • MDM2 mouse double minute 2
  • AKT has also an important function in the control of the G2/M transition by e.g. phosphorylation of Myt1 and FOXO3a.
  • AKT serine/threonine kinase mTOR
  • AKT can directly phosphorylate and activate mTOR, as well as cause indirect activation of mTOR by phosphorylating and inactivating TSC2 (tuberous sclerosis complex 2, also called tuberin), which normally inhibits mTOR through the GTP-binding protein Rheb (Ras homolog enriched in brain).
  • TSC2 tuberous sclerosis complex 2, also called tuberin
  • Rheb GTP-binding protein
  • mTOR exists in two complexes: the TORC1 complex, in which mTOR is bound to Raptor, and the TORC2 complex, in which mTOR is bound to Rictor. 12
  • mTOR phosphorylates its downstream effectors S6 kinase (S6K1 ) and 4EBP-1 .
  • S6K1 can then phosphorylate its substrate, a ribosomal protein called S6.
  • 4EBP-1 when phosphorylated cannot bind effectively to its binding partner, elF4E.
  • the cumulative effect is to increase protein translation, especially of highly structured, capped mRNA species.
  • mTOR is generally considered a downstream substrate of AKT
  • mTOR in complex with Rictor can also phosphorylate AKT at S473, thereby providing a level of positive feedback on the pathway.
  • S6K1 can also regulate the pathway by catalyzing an inhibitory phosphorylation on insulin receptor substrate proteins (IRS). This prevents IRS from activating PI3K, which indirectly lowers activation of AKT.
  • IRS insulin receptor substrate proteins
  • PI3K, AKT and mTOR In addition to the well described PI3K/AKT/mTOR axis of the PI3K signaling pathway, PI3K, AKT and mTOR also receive and branch differential signaling events that are independent from the axis. For example, mTOR has the crosstalk with and is activated by MAPK pathway through ERK and RSK regulated phosphorylation of TSC2. 17 There are collective data describing the AKT/mTOR-independent PI3K-mediated signaling events.
  • PI3K downstream signaling molecule PDK1 responses to increased levels of PIP3 and activates not only AKT, but also a group of AGC kinases comprising S6K, RSK, SGK and PKC isoforms, which play essential roles in regulating tumor cell growth, proliferation, survival and metabolism.
  • AGC kinases comprising S6K, RSK, SGK and PKC isoforms.
  • many PIK3CA mutant cancer cell lines and human breast tumors exhibit only minimal AKT activation and a diminished reliance on AKT for anchorage-independent growth. Instead, these cells retain robust PDK1 activation and membrane localization and exhibit dependency on the PDK1 substrate SGK3.
  • SGK3 undergoes PI3K- and PDK1 -dependent activation in PIK3CA mutant cancer cells.
  • PI3K may promote cancer through both AKT-dependent and AKT-independent mechanisms.
  • PI3Ks regulate also other cancer related signaling proteins such as PLC, Rac, Rho, ITK and BTK, etc.
  • class I PI3K has four isoforms of the p1 1 0 catalytic subunits, p1 10cc, ⁇ 1 10 ⁇ , ⁇ 1 10 ⁇ and ⁇ 1 10 ⁇ .
  • ⁇ 1 10 ⁇ and ⁇ 1 10 ⁇ are present in all cell types, while ⁇ 1 10 ⁇ and ⁇ 1 10 ⁇ are highly enriched in leukocytes.
  • p1 10 subunits are divided into a class IA group (p1 10a, p1 10 ⁇ and p1 105), which bind the p85 regulatory subunit, and a class IB group ( ⁇ 1 10 ⁇ ), which does not.
  • the p85 regulatory subunits contain Src homology 2 (SH2) domains and bind phosphorylated tyrosine (pTyr), which lead to the activation of the class IA p1 10 catalytic subunits.
  • SH2 Src homology 2
  • pTyr phosphorylated tyrosine
  • p1 1 0 ⁇ is activated directly through G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). Recent data indicated that ⁇ 1 10 ⁇ was also activated by GPCRs directly through ⁇ protein.
  • each class I PI3Ks The signaling inputs to each class I PI3Ks are diverse and well depicted in genetic analyses.
  • activation of AKT was impaired in p1 10cc-deficient MEFs upon stimulation by classical RTK ligands (EGF, insulin, IGF-1 , and PDGF).
  • RTK ligands EGF, insulin, IGF-1 , and PDGF.
  • MEFs in which ⁇ 1 10 ⁇ is ablated or replaced by a kinase- dead allele of ⁇ 1 10 ⁇ respond normally to growth factor stimulation via RTKs. 22
  • ⁇ 1 10 ⁇ catalytic activity is actually required for AKT activation in response to GPCR ligands (such as LPA).
  • p1 10a appears to carry the majority of the PI3K signal in classic RTK signaling and is responsible for tumor cell growth, proliferation, survival, angiogenesis and metabolism whereas p1 10 ⁇ mediates GPCR signaling from mitogens and chemokines and therefore may regulate tumor cell proliferation, metabolism, inflammation and invasion.
  • PI3K/AKT kinases Activation of PI3K/AKT kinases promotes increased nutrient uptake, converting cells to a glucose-dependent metabolism that redirects lipid precursors and amino acids to anabolic processes that support cell growth and proliferation.
  • These metabolic phenotype with overactivated AKT lead to malignancies that display a metabolic conversion to aerobic glycolysis (the Warburg effect).
  • the PI3K/AKT pathway is discussed to be central for survival despite unfavourable growth conditions such as glucose depletion or hypoxia.
  • a further aspect of the activated PI3K/AKT pathway is to protect cells from programmed cell death ("apoptosis") and is hence considered to transduce a survival signal.
  • apoptosis programmed cell death
  • the PI3K/AKT pathway By acting as a modulator of anti-apoptotic signalling in tumor cells, the PI3K/AKT pathway, particular PI3K itself is a target for cancer therapy.
  • Activated PI3K/AKT phosphorylates and regulates several targets, e.g. BAD, GSK3 or FKHRL1 , that affect different signalling pathways like cell survival, protein synthesis or cell movement.
  • This PI3K/AKT pathway also plays a major part in resistance of tumor cells to conventional anti-cancer therapies.
  • Blocking the PI3K/AKT pathway could therefore simultaneously inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells (e.g. via the inhibition of the metabolic effect) and sensitize towards pro-apoptotic agents.
  • PI3K inhibition selectively sensitized tumor cells to apoptotic stimuli like Trail, Campthothecin and Doxorubicin.
  • PI3K/AKT pathway is linked to resistance to both chemo- and targeted therapeutics.
  • the Inhibition of ⁇ 3 ⁇ might present a promising strategy to overcome the resistance to radiation and DNA targeting therapy.
  • Nuclear PI3Kb can induce nuclear AKT phosphorylated on both T308 and S473 in response to either IR or the DNA-damaging agent doxorubicin.
  • PI3K plays central role downstream of many cancer related signaling pathways that are critical for tumorigenesis, tumor growth / proliferation and survival, tumor cell adhesion, invation and metastasis, as well as tumor angiogenesis.
  • PIK3CA gain-function mutation of PIK3CA is common in several human cancers and the link between tumor suppressor gene PTEN and ⁇ 3 ⁇ has been observed in some tumors such as prostate cancer.
  • An increased expression of the ⁇ 1 10 ⁇ and ⁇ 1 1 0 ⁇ isoforms has been observed in some colon and bladder tumors, and in glioblastoma.
  • nuclear ⁇ 3 ⁇ plays roles in DNA synthesis and repair.
  • ⁇ 1 10 ⁇ controls proliferation in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and migration of breast cancer cells, 36 whereas ⁇ 1 10 ⁇ plays roles in tumor angiogenesis, drug resistance of CML cells, and pancreatic tumor growth and survival. 37
