PIK3CA-mutations in breast cancer
Abstract Purpose Phosphatidylinositide-3-kinase (PI3K) regulates proliferation and apoptosis; somatic PIK3CA-mutations may activate these processes. Aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of PIK3CA-mutations in a cohort of early stage breast cancer patients and the association to the course of disease.

A Neonate Diagnosed with Megalencephaly-Capillary Malformation-Polymicrogyria Syndrome with Mutation [PDF]
Megalencephaly-capillary malformation-polymicrogyria syndrome (MCAP) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by megalencephaly, polymicrogyria, body overgrowth, and cutaneous capillary malformations. It has been reported recently that MCAP is related to

Carcinogenesis of PIK3CA [PDF]
Abstract PIK3CA is the most frequently mutated oncogene in human cancers. PIK3CA is phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase, catalytic subunit alpha. It controls cell growth, proliferation, motility, survival, differentiation and intracellular trafficking.

Understanding PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling in squamous cell carcinoma: mutated PIK3CA as an example
Compared with those in adenocarcinoma, PIK3CA mutations are more common in squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), which arises from stratified squamous epithelia that are usually exposed to adverse environmental factors. Although hotspot mutations in exons 9 and

A late endosome signaling hub that couples PI3Kα and WNT/β-catenin signaling in breast cancer
AKT is the central phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) signaling effector, however, PIK3CA (p110α subunit of PI3Kα)-mutant estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancers exhibit minimal AKT activation and the downstream signaling is poorly characterized ...

PIK3CA as an oncogene in cervical cancer [PDF]
Amplification of chromosome arm 3q is the most consistent aberration in cervical cancer, and is implicated in the progression of dysplastic uterine cervical cells into invasive cancer. The present study employed the 'positional candidate gene' strategy to determine the contribution of PIK3CA, which is located in 3q26.3, in cervical tumorigenesis ...
