AKT1 and colorectal cancer: In colorectal cancer, Zhao et al. performed proteomic assays and found that LASP1 interacted with 14–3-3σ and decreased the expression of 14–3-3σ, as 14–3-3σ could also interact with AKT and suppress AKT phosphorylation, the deletion of 14–3-3σ contributed to LASP1-mediated activation of the PI3K/AKT pathway [11, 16].
