However, a recent study showed that the PI3K/mTOR inhibitor BEZ235 can potentiate the activity of the HDAC inhibitor panobinostat in pre-clinical models of DLBCL, including DHL cell lines with overexpression of bcl-2 and MYC [12], further suggesting activation of Akt/mTOR activation in DHL. The gene discussed is MTOR; the disease is diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
