Research Progress on the Mechanism of PI3K/AKT/mTOR Signaling Pathway in Multiple Myeloma --Review

Abstract

PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway is of great significance in the development and prognosis of tumors, and is closely related to the pathogenesis of multiple myeloma (MM). PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway can participate in the regulation of MM through multichannel and multitarget, such as regulating the tumor microenvironment of MM cells survival, affecting tumor development and migration, regulating the proliferation, apoptosis and autophagy of MM cells. It have shown that after the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway is inhibited, the apoptosis and autophagy of MM cells are activated, which promote the death of MM cells and inhibit the metastasis and recurrence of MM cells. Therefore, indepth study of the mechanism of PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway in MM is helpful to elucidate the pathogenesis and prognosis of MM.
