The proto-oncogenic PI3K pathway is crucial for the integration of growth factor signaling and metabolic pathways to facilitate the coordination for cell growth. Since transformed cells have the ability to upregulate their anabolic pathways and selectively modulate a subset of metabolites functioning as anti- or pro-tumorigenic signal mediators, the question of how the levels of these metabolites are regulated has also become the center of attention for cancer researchers. Apart from its well-defined roles in glucose metabolism and peptide anabolism, the PI3K pathway appears to be a significant regulator of lipid metabolism and a potentiator of proto-oncogenic bioactive lipid metabolite signaling. In this review, we aim to describe the crosstalk between the PI3K pathway and bioactive lipid species of the three main lipid classes.

Tacrolimus (TAC) is an immunosuppressant widely utilized in organ transplantation. One of its primary adverse effects is glucose metabolism disorder, which significantly increases the risk of diabetes. Investigating the molecular mechanisms underlying TAC-induced diabetes is essential for developing effective prevention and treatment strategies for these adverse effects.

Cancer, one of the deadliest diseases, has remained the epicenter of biological research for more than seven decades. Yet all the efforts for a perfect therapeutic cure come with certain limitations. The use of medicinal plants and their phytochemicals as therapeutics has received much attention in recent years.

The effects of wheat and oat dietary fiber (DF) alone or combined on T2DM remain unclear. In this research, / diabetic mice were fed with diets containing 10% insoluble wheat dietary fiber (WDF), 10% insoluble oat dietary fiber (ODF), and 10% WODF (mixture of WDF and ODF, WDF : ODF = 1 : 1) for 8 weeks. The results showed that WDF, ODF, and WODF all reduced the body weight and fasting blood glucose (FBG) and improved oral glucose tolerance in / mice.

Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is prone to metastasis and is a leading cause of mortality. The cytoskeleton is closely related to cell morphology and movement; however, little research has been conducted on ESCC metastasis. In this study, we found that the anchoring filament protein ladinin 1 (LAD1) specifically binds to LINC01305 for co-regulating the level of modulating cortactin proteins (CTTN) and neuronal Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (N-WASP) phosphorylation, which mediates cytoskeletal reorganization and affects the metastasis of ESCC cells.
