Research Abstract |
We generated pancreatic cancer mouse model by inducing pancreas-specific expression of activated Kras and deletion of Pten. All the mice died from pancreas tumor in six weeks. We analyzed the effect of mTOR inhibitor, rapamycin, on pancreatic cancer cell lines with PTEN deletion or AKT2 amplification. Rapamycin had no anti-tumor effect using as a single agent or combination with gemcitabine. We discovered that low glucose medium predisposed these cells to apoptosis and rapamycin prevented this phenomenon. The result suggested that, under some conditions, mTOR inhibition could not exert anti-tumor effect even on PTEN-PI3K-AKT activated cancer.交付決定額(
