The protein 3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase 1 (PDK1) is upregulated in cancer. Here we showed that PDK1 stimulated cell proliferation, invasion and metastasis in gallbladder cancer (GBC), by inducing JunB and epithelial-mesenchymal transition. JunB levels were increased in GBC samples and positively correlated with PDK1 levels in tumors. High levels of JunB predicted poor overall survival in GBC patients. Thus, PDK1 functions as a tumor promoter in human GBC by upregulating JunB.
