LKB1 is an important upstream inhibitor of the mTOR/S6Ks pathway. Loss of LKB1 is often associated with cancer, including in A549 lung cancer cell line, boosting the transformation of pre-malignant neoplasic cells. Metformin, a natural compound derived from Galega officinalis, is mainly used as a treatment for diabetes mellitus type 2 (DM2), but recently, it has been associated to lower i…
Mitofaphy process, have been pointed out as a determinant for a cellular regeneration and muscle cells differentiation, an adequate and efficient way. Thus, an overexpression of Parkin, a key protein of mitofaghy process is an interesting to better elucidate the profile and Parkin pathyway in muscle cells differentiation.
Cancer is a pathology characterized by the accumulation of mutations in the DNA of cells, these mutations may be associated with the processes of angiogenesis, inflammation, and tumor innervation. Currently, the process of tumor innervation has been described as a key process for angiogenesis and tumor inflammation. However, the tumor innervation signaling pathways are still unclear. It i…
