Abstract
PLK1 potentiates both mTORC1 and mTORC2 activities in ESCC cells. PLK1 expression positively correlated with mTOR activity in a subset of ESCC. Co-targeting of PLK1 and mTOR produced stronger antitumor effects partially due to synergistic inhibition of AKT, 4E-BP1 and S6 through cooperatively blocking mTORC2 and mTORC1 cascades. Combination targeting of PLK1 and mTOR may be a novel and promising therapeutic strategy for ESCC treatment.
