| সংক্ষিপ্ত: | <p>Therapeutic coinhibition of Wnt and PI3K signaling reduces tumor growth in ICC. <b>A,</b> RNA-seq data of human ICC demonstrating a positive correlation between the activity of canonical Wnt signaling and Akt signaling. <b>B,</b> Schematic representation of the KPPTom cholangiocarcinoma model where Cre<sup>ERT</sup> expression in Keratin-19–positive cholangiocytes results in the inactivation of <i>Trp53</i> and <i>Pten</i>, whereas labeling transformed cells with tdTomato. <b>C,</b> Representative IHC staining of KPPTom model following tamoxifen administration (day 0) and following 4 and 8 weeks of thioacetamide administration. tdTomato (red) denotes recombined cholangiocytes (denoted by Keratin-19; green). Blue, DNA. Top, whole mount FUNGI images; bottom, 2D histologic sections. Scale bar, 200 μm. White arrows, tdTomato-positive cells. <b>D,</b> Quantification of liver tissue occupied by tumor in the KPPTom ICC model. <b>E,</b> IHC showing that KPPTom ICC has activated canonical Wnt signaling [by staining for dephosphorylated (active) β-catenin] and PI3K activity (through pAKT<sup>Ser647</sup> positivity). Red arrows, positive cells. Scale bar, 100 μm. <b>F,</b> A schematic representation of how the KPPTom model was used to test the effectiveness of Wnt and Pi3K inhibitor combinations on ICC progression. <b>G,</b> IHC staining for tdTomato-positive cancer cells in vehicle-treated animals compared with those treated with a combination of LGK974 and pictilisib. Scale bar, 100 μm. <b>H,</b> Number of tdTomato-positive cells in KPPTom animals given vehicle or LGK974 and pictilisib in combination<b>. I,</b> Proportion of KPPTom animals containing macroscopic tumors in KPPTom animals treated with vehicle versus combination treatment. b.d., bile duct; p.v., portal vein.</p> |
