Abstract: /M and S phases, accompanied by remarkable alterations in the expression of key cell cycle regulators. CDDO-Me caused mitochondria-, death receptor-dependent and ER stress-mediated apoptosis in K562 cells, also induced autophagy with the suppression of PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway. p38 MAPK/Erk1/2 signaling pathways contributed to both apoptosis- and autophagy-inducing effects of CDDO-Me in K562 cells. Taken together, these data demonstrate that CDDO-Me is a potential anti-cancer agent that targets cell cycle, apoptosis, and autophagy in the treatment of CML.
