Implication of 4E-BP1 protein dephosphorylation and accumulation in pancreatic cancer cell death induced by combined gemcitabine and TRAIL

Abstract: Pancreatic cancer cells show varying sensitivity to the anticancer effects of gemcitabine. However, as a chemotherapeutic agent, gemcitabine can cause intolerably high levels of toxicity and patients often develop resistance to the beneficial effects of this drug. Combination studies show that use of gemcitabine with the pro-apoptotic cytokine TRAIL can enhance the inhibition of survival and induction of apoptosis of pancreatic cancer cells. Additionally, following combination treatment there is a dramatic inc… Show more

“…In addition, 4EBP1 can slow tumor progression in phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN)-driven prostate cancer ( 37 ). Significant upregulation and dephosphorylation of 4EBP1 serve an important role in the promotion of pancreatic cancer cell death ( 38 ). The results from these studies suggest that 4EBP1 might serve as a tumor suppressor factor and inhibit the migratory and invasive abilities of various cancer cells.…”

“…Inhibition of mTORC1 has been suggested to provide wide-ranging clinical benefits, including as a treatment for cancer, epilepsy, neurodegenerative diseases, and aging ( 14 , 72 76 ). The recent development of new pharmacological inhibitors for mTORC1 inhibition, based around rapamycin, have focused on identifying “rapalogues” without the toxicity associated with rapamycin ( 68 ).…”
