PI3K/Akt Pathway Activation Attenuates the Cytotoxic Effect of Methyl Jasmonate Toward Sarcoma Cells

Methyl jasmonate (MJ) acts both in vitro and in vivo against various cancer cell lines. Activation of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt pathway results in decreased susceptibility to cytotoxic agents in many types of cancer cells. We found a strong inverse correlation between the basal l...
