Genetic analysis of protein kinase B (AKT) in Drosophila [PDF]
The decision between survival and death is an important aspect of cellular regulation during development and malignancy. Central to this regulation is the process of apoptosis, which is conserved in multicellular organisms [1]. A variety of signalling cascades have been implicated in modulation of apoptosis, including the phosphatidylinositol (Pl) 3 ...

Protein kinase B (c-Akt): a multifunctional mediator of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase activation.
While a plethora of extracellular molecules exist that modulate cellular functions via binding to membrane receptors inside the cell, their actions are mediated by relatively few signalling mechanisms. One of these is activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-

Endocrine therapy: defining the path of least resistance [PDF]
One of the best-characterized oncogenic mechanisms in breast cancer is the aberrant activation of phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase, protein kinase B, and mammalian target of rapamycin signaling.

Molecular Mechanisms of Glucose Fluctuations on Diabetic Complications
Accumulating evidence indicates the occurrence and development of diabetic complications relates to not only constant high plasma glucose, but also glucose fluctuations which affect various kinds of molecular mechanisms in various target cells and ...

CD98hc facilitates B cell proliferation and adaptive humoral immunity. [PDF]
The proliferation of antigen-specific lymphocytes and resulting clonal expansion are essential for adaptive immunity. We report here that B cell-specific deletion of the heavy chain of CD98 (CD98hc) resulted in lower antibody responses due to total ...

Doxorubicin has a synergistic cytotoxicity with cucurbitacin B in anaplastic thyroid carcinoma cells
In this study, the combined effect of doxorubicin with cucurbitacin B on survival of anaplastic thyroid carcinoma cells was evaluated. For experiments, 8505C and CAL62 human anaplastic thyroid carcinoma cells were used.

Protein kinase B from Giardia intestinalis
A novel serine/threonine protein kinase from Giardia intestinalis (GiPKB) was isolated by a combination of PCR techniques. Analysis of the GiPKB sequence indicated that the encoded protein appears to be a member of a novel subgroup of serine/threonine protein kinases known as protein kinase B. Reverse transcription PCR and Northern hybridization showed

The role of the Amyloid Precursor Protein mutations and PERK-dependent signaling pathways in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a highly complex, progressive, age-related neurodegenerative human disease entity. The genetic basis of AD is strictly connected with occurrence of mutations in Amyloid Precursor (APP) gene on chromosome 21.
