DRD4, Akt/β-Catenin, and Liver Cancer Resistance
2026-08-13
The 2024 British Journal of Cancer study identifies DRD4 as a regulator of liver cancer stem cell-like behavior, chemotherapy resistance, and tumorigenicity through the PI3K/Akt/GSK-3β/β-catenin axis. Its integrated expression, patient-association, perturbation, and localization analyses suggest that DRD4-linked signaling may be a tractable vulnerability, while downstream pathway experiments can help distinguish stemness effects from general cytotoxicity.
