Abstract
Background: The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), protein tyrosine phosphatase
1b (PTP1B) and dipeptidase 4 (DPP4) signaling pathways regulate eukaryotic cell proliferation and
metabolism. Previous researches described different transduction mechanisms in the progression of
cancer and diabetes.
Methodology: We reviewed recent advances in the signal transduction pathways of mTOR, PTP1B
and DPP4 regulation and determined the crosstalk and common pathway in diabetes and cancer.
Results: We showed that according to numerous past studies, the proteins participate in the signaling
networks for both diseases.
Conclusion: There are common pathways and specific proteins involved in diabetes and cancer. This
article demonstrates and explains the potential mechanisms of association and future prospects for
targeting these proteins in pharmacological studies.
Keywords:
Signaling pathway, mammalian target of rapamycin, protein tyrosine phosphatase 1b, dipeptidase 4, cancer, diabetes,
pharmacology, target compounds.
