1 18549351 Using this cell line, we found that suppression of Pdcd4 resulted in an increased release of CgA (chromogranin A) and Sg II (secretogranin II), and was accompanied by an up-regulation of intracellular PC1 (proprotein convertase 1/3).
2 18549351 In accordance with this, inhibition of PI3K activity and, thereby, reduced phosphorylation of Akt was shown to enhance Pdcd4 expression.
3 18549351 Neither the PKC (protein kinase C) signal transduction cascade nor the MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase) pathway seemed to play a role in the regulation of CgA and Sg II secretion by Pdcd4.
4 18549351 Our results are of particular interest, as we observed that pioglitazone, an oral medication used in the treatment of Type 2 diabetes, decreased Pdcd4 levels, activated Akt, increased CgA and Sg II secretion and augmented PC1 protein in Bon-1 cells.
5 21730150 In pancreatic ? cells, c-Rel and p65 of the NF-?B family activated the mir21 gene promoter and increased miR-21 RNA levels; miR-21 in turn decreased the level of PDCD4, which is able to induce cell death through the Bax family of apoptotic proteins.
