Research Abstract |
NO inhibits the phosphorylation of IGF-IR, EGFR, Akt and IRS-1 protein expression, but upregulates Ras/Erk pathway in cancer cells (pancreatic and colon cancer cells). C terminus is responsible site for NO-induced ubiqutination and degradation of IRS-1 protein. NO inhibits the proliferation and invasion of pancreatic, colon and breast cancer cells. Combination of NO-donor and MEK-inhibitor enhances anti-cancer activity in these cancer cells.
