Not only is hyperactivation of PI3K/AKT pathway in relation to NPC progression and prognosis [79], but FOXO1, CHL1, PNUTS, VPS33B interacts with NESG1, RBM3, ARHGAP42 and LncRNA ZFAS1 also display their influence on the proliferation, growth, invasion, metastasis, EMT, chemosensitivity or radio-resistance of NPC cells via PI3K/AKT pathway [80–86]. This evidence concerns the gene AKT1 and nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
