CCN1 and gastric cancer: Additionally, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis revealed that amylin exerted its oncogenic effects by inhibiting the PI3K/Akt signalling pathway (<i>p</i> < 0.05).<h4>Conclusions</h4>Our findings demonstrate that amylin plays a crucial role in suppressing gastric cancer progression by targeting CCN1 and inhibiting the PI3K/Akt signalling pathway.
