Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a relatively rare autosomal dominant disease which involves multiple organs, including the brain, kidney, lung, skin and heart. Renal angiomyolipomas (RAML) are the main causes of mortality in patients with TSC. The preferred treatment for RAML is the use of mTOR inhibitors, but the efficacy of these are not satisfactory. Therefore, an alternative treatment is urgently required. Autophagy levels decline in TSC associated cortical tubers, and the inhibition of autophagy in animal or cell models of TSC may suppress tumor development and cell proliferation. PTEN is a protein tyrosine phosphatase and can inhibit the activation of Akt. In the present study, it was indicated that the PTEN inhibitor, hydroxyl(oxo)vanadium 3-hydroxypiridine-2-carboxylic acid (VO-OHpic), suppressed proliferation and growth of TSC2-/- murine embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) by further inhibiting autophagy of cells. The expression levels of human microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3-I (LC3-I) and LC3-II, which are autophagy associated proteins, were demonstrated to decline following VO-OHpic treatment. The expression levels of phosphorylated proline-rich Akt substrate 40 kDa (PRAS40) also decreased in TSC2-/- MEFs treated with VO-OHpic. The PTEN inhibitor may inhibit the proliferation of TSC2-/- MEFs through the PTEN-PRAS40 pathway by excessively inhibiting autophagy, without the dependence of the Ras homolog, mTORC1 binding/mTOR pathway. PTEN may be a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of TSC. Further in vivo studies are required to confirm these results.
