Apoptosis Reversal Promotes Cancer Stem Cell-Like Cell Formation.

abstract：:Methyl jasmonate (MJ) acts both in vitro and in vivo against various cancer cell lines. Activation of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt pathway results in decreased susceptibility to cytotoxic agents in many types of cancer cells. We found a strong inverse correlation between the basal level of phospho-Akt ...
