RPS6KB1 and cancer: It is thought that MC extracts’ anti-cancer properties could rely on the ability to modulate several de-regulated signaling pathways in different type of cancer, like MAPK pathway, Akt/mTOR/p70S6K pathway through activation of AMPK, Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway and through the modulation of cell cycle proteins, thereby inducing cell cycle arrest or inducing apoptosis or other cell death pathways.
