  • Phosphatidylinositol 3- kinase, Akt, and the mammalian target of rapamycin ( PI3K/Akt/mTOR) signaling pathway is shown to play a key role in the tumorigenesis, proliferation, metastasis, apoptosis, and angiogenesis of hepatocellular carcinoma ( HCC) by regulating gene expression. The components and functions of PI3 K /Akt /mTOR signaling pathway are briefly described, and the research advances in the action mechanism of PI3 K /Akt /mTOR signaling pathway in the progression of HCC and related inhibitors are reviewed. It is disclosed that blocking the PI3 K /Akt /mTOR signaling pathway may become a new therapy for HCC.
