We assessed the therapeutic possibility of inhibiting Notch and Akt in gliomas using the clinically available, selective small molecule inhibitors. Additionally, we investigated the molecular mechanisms of sensitization of glioblastoma (GBM) cells to temozolomide (TMZ) by GSK3beta inhibition. Notch and Akt inhibitors significantly inhibited cell growth, migration, and invasion in a dose-dependent manner. However, the effect of combination treatment did not exceed that of Akt inhibitor monotherapy in proliferation assay. Inhibition of invasion, further enhanced by combination therapy. Therefore, combination therapy may be effective for inhibiting invasion but not proliferation. GSK3beta inhibition enhanced TMZ effect. c-Myc binds to the MGMT promoter with consequent recruitment of DNMT3A, regulating the levels of MGMT promoter methylation. Therefore, GSK3beta inhibition enhances TMZ effect by silencing MGMT expression via c-Myc-mediated promoter methylation.
