UNBS5162 and amonafide inhibit the activation of the AKT/mTOR pathway and reverse the epithelial–mesenchymal transition process in human melanoma cells. (A–D) Western blot was performed to confirm the pathway by which UNBS5162 and amonafide inhibited tumor progression; phosphorylation of AKT and mTOR were inhibited in M14 and A375 cells treated with 10 µM UNBS5162 or 8 µM amonafide for 48 hours, as well as P70/S6K and Cyclin D1. (C–H) The expressions of N-cad, Snail, Vimentin, and slug in UNBS5162 and amonafide groups decreased significantly, whereas E-cad increased significantly.
