| Core Tip |
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is associated with an increased risk and progression of cholangiocarcinoma (CCA). The γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) B2 receptor (GABBR2) was upregulated in CCA cells cultured in high glucose and in CCA tissues from patients with hyperglycemia. High GABBR2 expressions were significantly correlated with a non-papillary histotype and smaller sizes of CCA tumors. The treatment of baclofen, a GABA-B receptor agonist, significantly suppressed CCA cell proliferation and clonogenicity, suggesting that GABBR2 is a potential target for CCA treatment. Baclofen inhibited multiple kinases and signal transducers in CCA, resulting in downregulated downstream target proteins involving cell proliferation and suppression of CCA cell growth. |
