PIK3R1Phosphoinositide-3-kinase, regulatory subunit 1 (alpha)Adaptor ProteinTumor Promoting InflammationInflammation pathwayIt is implicated in prostate cancer inflammatory pathway and its genetic polymorphism has been detected in Caucasian population.Reference
PIK3R1Phosphoinositide-3-kinase, regulatory subunit 1 (alpha)Adaptor ProteinGenome Instability, Mutation & PerturbationGenetic polymorphismPIK3R1 single neuceotide polymorphism associates with aggressive prostate cancer in Caucasian and African American men.Reference
PIK3R1Phosphoinositide-3-kinase, regulatory subunit 1 (alpha)Adaptor ProteinMetastasisCell MotilityPromotes cell motility in a bradykinine responsive manner and through PI3K/AKT1 pathway.Reference
PIK3R1Phosphoinositide-3-kinase, regulatory subunit 1 (alpha)Adaptor ProteinMetabolic ReprogrammingMetabolic ReprogrammingPI3K/AKT pathway plays an essential leading role in enhancing HIF1A expression in prostate cancer, which is a master transcription factor and inherently associated with prostate cancer warburg effect.Reference
PIK3R1Phosphoinositide-3-kinase, regulatory subunit 1 (alpha)Adaptor ProteinMetabolic ReprogrammingMetabolic ReprogrammingPI3K/AKT pathway activation, due to inactivation of PTEN tumour suppressor, play an important role in overexpression of fatty acid synthase (FAS) in prostate cancer, which is the key metabolic enzyme in the synthesis of long chain saturated fatty acids. Reference
PIK3R1Phosphoinositide-3-kinase, regulatory subunit 1 (alpha)Adaptor ProteinMetabolic ReprogrammingMetabolic ReprogrammingPI3K/AKT pathway activates bifunctional enzyme PFKFB2, which plays a critical role in glucose uptake and glucose-dependent lipid synthesis in human prostate cancer.Reference
PIK3R1Phosphoinositide-3-kinase, regulatory subunit 1 (alpha)Adaptor ProteinCastration ResistanceCastration ResistancePI3K pathway activation (due to loss of PTEN tumour suppressor) along with its crosstalk with androgen receptor (AR) plays a very significant role in the development and progression of castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC).
