Abstract: Described herein are compositions and methods for treating a disease or disorder associated with PI3K signaling. For example, such compositions can include use of modulators of glucose metabolism, use of at least one kinase in the insulin-receptor/PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway, and/or use of diet that influences the subject's metabolic state.

Abstract: As described herein ingestion of high amounts of sugar, especially fructose, can increase the growth of intestinal tumors. Such cancer growth can be inhibited or prevented by limiting the amounts of sugar and amino acids ingested, by inhibiting ketohexokinase (KHK), fructose transport (via GLUT5), fatty acid synthesis (via FASN), phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3K), or by limiting amounts of sugar and amino acids ingested while also receiving KHK inhibitors, GLUT5 inhibitors, FASN inhibitors, PI3K inhibitors, or a combination of such inhibitors.

Abstract: Described herein are compositions and methods for treating a disease or disorder associated with PI3K signaling. For example, such compositions can include use of modulators of glucose metabolism, use of at least one kinase in the insulin-receptor/PI3K/O AKT/mTOR pathway, and/or use of diet that influences the subjects metabolic state.
