Type:

ILK - Integrin-Linked Kinase

Abbreviation: ILK, ILK1

Type: Integrin-associated signaling/scaffold protein / focal adhesion regulator

Function: ILK is an integrin-associated focal adhesion protein that interacts with β-integrins, PINCH, and parvin to regulate cell adhesion, cytoskeletal organization, migration, survival, and signal transduction. ILK influences pathways including AKT, GSK3β, β-catenin, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition signaling.

Cancer: ↑ Frequently increased or functionally activated in cancer. Elevated ILK promotes proliferation, survival, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, migration, invasion, angiogenesis, metastasis, and resistance to anticancer therapy. ILK inhibition or knockdown can suppress tumor growth and invasive behavior in multiple experimental cancer models.

7691- IP6,    Inositol Hexaphosphate Suppresses Growth and Induces Apoptosis in Prostate Carcinoma Cells in Culture and Nude Mouse Xenograft: PI3K-Akt Pathway as Potential Target
- vitro+vivo, Pca, PC3 - in-vitro, Pca, C4-2B
TumCP↓, IP6 treatment of cells suppressed proliferation, induced apoptosis along with caspase-3 and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) cleavage, and inhibited constitutive activation of Akt and its upstream regulators PI3K,
Apoptosis↑, IP6 inhibits growth and induces apoptosis in PC-3 cells
Casp3↑,
cl‑PARP↑,
Akt↓, IP6 decreases phosphorylation or expression of signaling molecules in PI3K-Akt axis
PI3K↓,
p‑GSK‐3β↓, Downstream of Akt, IP6 inhibited the phosphorylation of glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK-3) α/β at Serine21/9 and consequently reduced Cyclin D1 expression.
cycD1/CCND1↓,
TumVol↓, Efficacy studies employing PC-3 tumor xenograft growth in nude mice showed that 2% IP6 (weight/volume) feeding in drinking water inhibits tumor growth and weight by 52–59%
TumW↓,
PCNA↓, IP6 significantly reduces the expression of molecules associated with cell survival/proliferation (ILK1, phospho-Akt, Cyclin D1, PCNA) and angiogenesis (PECAM-1 or CD31, VEGF, eNOS, hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α),
