The intracellular transfer of information (biological activation/inhibition) through a signal pathway. In each signal transduction system, an activation/inhibition signal from a biologically active molecule (hormone, neurotransmitter) is mediated via the coupling of a receptor/enzyme to a second messenger system or to an ion channel. Signal transduction plays an important role in activating cellular functions, cell differentiation, and cell proliferation.

A type of chromosome aberration characterized by CHROMOSOME BREAKAGE and transfer of the broken-off portion to another location, often to a different chromosome.
An intracellular signaling system involving the MAP kinase cascades (three-membered protein kinase cascades). Various upstream activators, which act in response to extracellular stimuli, trigger the cascades by activating the first member of a cascade, MAP KINASE KINASE KINASES; (MAPKKKs). Activated MAPKKKs phosphorylate MITOGEN-ACTIVATED PROTEIN KINASE KINASES which in turn phosphorylate the MITOGEN-ACTIVATED PROTEIN KINASES; (MAPKs). The MAPKs then act on various downstream targets to affect gene expression. In mammals, there are several distinct MAP kinase pathways including the ERK (extracellular signal-regulated kinase) pathway, the SAPK/JNK (stress-activated protein kinase/c-jun kinase) pathway, and the p38 kinase pathway. There is some sharing of components among the pathways depending on which stimulus originates activation of the cascade.

Intracellular signalling: PDK1--a kinase at the hub of things. (1/12568)

Phosphoinositide-dependent kinase 1 (PDK1) is at the hub of many signalling pathways, activating PKB and PKC isoenzymes, as well as p70 S6 kinase and perhaps PKA. PDK1 action is determined by colocalization with substrate and by target site availability, features that may enable it to operate in both resting and stimulated cells.  (+info)

Myogenic signaling of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase requires the serine-threonine kinase Akt/protein kinase B. (2/12568)

The oncogene p3k, coding for a constitutively active form of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase), strongly activates myogenic differentiation. Inhibition of endogenous PI 3-kinase activity with the specific inhibitor LY294002, or with dominant-negative mutants of PI 3-kinase, interferes with myotube formation and with the expression of muscle-specific proteins. Here we demonstrate that a downstream target of PI 3-kinase, serine-threonine kinase Akt, plays an important role in myogenic differentiation. Expression of constitutively active forms of Akt dramatically enhances myotube formation and expression of the muscle-specific proteins MyoD, creatine kinase, myosin heavy chain, and desmin. Transdominant negative forms of Akt inhibit myotube formation and the expression of muscle-specific proteins. The inhibition of myotube formation and the reduced expression of muscle-specific proteins caused by the PI 3-kinase inhibitor LY294002 are completely reversed by constitutively active forms of Akt. Wild-type cellular Akt effects a partial reversal of LY294002-induced inhibition of myogenic differentiation. This result suggests that Akt can substitute for PI 3-kinase in the stimulation of myogenesis; Akt may be an essential downstream component of PI 3-kinase-induced muscle differentiation.  (+info)

Regulation of G1 progression by the PTEN tumor suppressor protein is linked to inhibition of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/Akt pathway. (3/12568)

PTEN/MMAC1 is a tumor suppressor gene located on chromosome 10q23. Inherited PTEN/MMAC1 mutations are associated with a cancer predisposition syndrome known as Cowden's disease. Somatic mutation of PTEN has been found in a number of malignancies, including glioblastoma, melanoma, and carcinoma of the prostate and endometrium. The protein product (PTEN) encodes a dual-specificity protein phosphatase and in addition can dephosphorylate certain lipid substrates. Herein, we show that PTEN protein induces a G1 block when reconstituted in PTEN-null cells. A PTEN mutant associated with Cowden's disease (PTEN;G129E) has protein phosphatase activity yet is defective in dephosphorylating inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate in vitro and fails to arrest cells in G1. These data suggest a link between induction of a cell-cycle block by PTEN and its ability to dephosphorylate, in vivo, phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate. In keeping with this notion, PTEN can inhibit the phosphatidylinositol 3,4, 5-trisphosphate-dependent Akt kinase, a downstream target of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, and constitutively active, but not wild-type, Akt overrides a PTEN G1 arrest. Finally, tumor cells lacking PTEN contain high levels of activated Akt, suggesting that PTEN is necessary for the appropriate regulation of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/Akt pathway.  (+info)

Akt-dependent potentiation of L channels by insulin-like growth factor-1 is required for neuronal survival. (4/12568)

The insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1)/receptor tyrosine kinase recently has been shown to mediate neuronal survival and potentiate the activity of specific calcium channel subtypes; survival requires Akt, a serine/threonine kinase. We demonstrate here that Akt mediates the IGF-1-induced potentiation of L channel currents, but not that of N channels. Transient expression of wild-type, dominant-negative, and constitutively active forms of Akt in cerebellar granule neurons causes, respectively, no change in IGF-1/L channel potentiation, complete inhibition of potentiation, and a dramatic increase in basal L currents accompanied by the loss of ability to induce further increases. In no case is the IGF-1 potentiation of N currents affected. We additionally find that IGF-1 partially mediates granule neuron survival via L channel activity and that Akt-dependent L channel modulation is a necessary component. Interestingly, very brief exposure (1 min) to IGF-1 triggers nearly complete survival and requires L channel activity. These results strongly suggest that neuronal receptor tyrosine kinases can control long-term calcium-dependent processes via the rapid control of voltage-sensitive channels.  (+info)

Hyperglycemia inhibits insulin activation of Akt/protein kinase B but not phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase in rat skeletal muscle. (5/12568)

Sustained hyperglycemia impairs insulin-stimulated glucose utilization in the skeletal muscle of both humans and experimental animals--a phenomenon referred to clinically as glucose toxicity. To study how this occurs, a model was developed in which hyperglycemia produces insulin resistance in vitro. Rat extensor digitorum longus muscles were preincubated for 4 h in Krebs-Henseleit solution containing glucose or glucose + insulin at various concentrations, after which insulin action was studied. Preincubation with 25 mmol/l glucose + insulin (10 mU/ml) led to a 70% decrease in the ability of insulin (10 mU/ml) to stimulate glucose incorporation into glycogen and a 30% decrease in 2-deoxyglucose (2-DG) uptake, compared with muscles incubated with 0 mmol/l glucose. Glucose incorporation into lipid and its oxidation to CO2 were marginally diminished, if at all. The alterations of glycogen synthesis and 2-DG uptake were first evident after 1 h and were maximal after 2 h of preincubation; they were not observed in muscles preincubated with 25 mmol/l glucose + insulin for 5 min. Preincubation for 4 h with 25 mmol/l glucose in the absence of insulin produced a similar although somewhat smaller decrease in insulin-stimulated glycogen synthesis; however, it did not alter 2-DG uptake, glucose oxidation to CO2, or incorporation into lipids. Studies of insulin signaling in the latter muscles revealed that activation of Akt/protein kinase B (PKB) was diminished by 60%, compared with that of muscles preincubated in a glucose-free medium; whereas activation of phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase, an upstream regulator of Akt/PKB in the insulin-signaling cascade, and of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase, a parallel signal, was unaffected. Immunoblots demonstrated that this was not due to a change in Akt/PKB abundance. The results indicate that hyperglycemia-induced insulin resistance can be studied in rat skeletal muscle in vitro. They suggest that impairment of insulin action in these muscles is related to inhibition of Akt/PKB by events that do not affect PI 3-kinase.  (+info)

Muscle fiber type-specific defects in insulin signal transduction to glucose transport in diabetic GK rats. (6/12568)

To determine whether defects in the insulin signal transduction pathway to glucose transport occur in a muscle fiber type-specific manner, post-receptor insulin-signaling events were assessed in oxidative (soleus) and glycolytic (extensor digitorum longus [EDL]) skeletal muscle from Wistar or diabetic GK rats. In soleus muscle from GK rats, maximal insulin-stimulated (120 nmol/l) glucose transport was significantly decreased, compared with that of Wistar rats. In EDL muscle from GK rats, maximal insulin-stimulated glucose transport was normal, while the submaximal response was reduced compared with that of Wistar rats. We next treated diabetic GK rats with phlorizin for 4 weeks to determine whether restoration of glycemia would lead to improved insulin signal transduction. Phlorizin treatment of GK rats resulted in full restoration of insulin-stimulated glucose transport in soleus and EDL muscle. In soleus muscle from GK rats, submaximal and maximal insulin-stimulated insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1 tyrosine phosphorylation and IRS-1-associated phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase activity were markedly reduced, compared with that of Wistar rats, but only submaximal insulin-stimulated PI 3-kinase was restored after phlorizin treatment. In EDL muscle, insulin-stimulated IRS-1 tyrosine phosphorylation and IRS-1-associated PI-3 kinase were not altered between GK and Wistar rats. Maximal insulin-stimulated Akt (protein kinase B) kinase activity is decreased in soleus muscle from GK rats and restored upon normalization of glycemia (Krook et al., Diabetes 46:2100-2114, 1997). Here, we show that in EDL muscle from GK rats, maximal insulin-stimulated Akt kinase activity is also impaired and restored to Wistar rat levels after phlorizin treatment. In conclusion, functional defects in IRS-1 and PI 3-kinase in skeletal muscle from diabetic GK rats are fiber-type-specific, with alterations observed in oxidative, but not glycolytic, muscle. Furthermore, regardless of muscle fiber type, downstream steps to PI 3-kinase (i.e., Akt and glucose transport) are sensitive to changes in the level of glycemia.  (+info)

Protein kinase Czeta is a negative regulator of protein kinase B activity. (7/12568)

Protein kinase B (PKB), also known as Akt or RAC-PK, is a serine/threonine kinase that can be activated by growth factors via phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. In this article we show that PKCzeta but not PKCalpha and PKCdelta can co-immunoprecipitate PKB from CHO cell lysates. Association of PKB with PKCzeta was also found in COS-1 cells transiently expressing PKB and PKCzeta, and moreover we found that this association is mediated by the AH domain of PKB. Stimulation of COS-1 cells with platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) resulted in a decrease in the PKB-PKCzeta interaction. The use of kinase-inactive mutants of both kinases revealed that dissociation of the complex depends upon PKB activity. Analysis of the activities of the interacting kinases showed that PDGF-induced activation of PKCzeta was not affected by co-expression of PKB. However, both PDGF- and p110-CAAX-induced activation of PKB were significantly abolished in cells co-expressing PKCzeta. In contrast, co-expression of a kinase-dead PKCzeta mutant showed an increased induction of PKB activity upon PDGF treatment. Downstream signaling of PKB, such as the inhibition of glycogen synthase kinase-3, was also reduced by co-expression of PKCzeta. A clear inhibitory effect of PKCzeta was found on the constitutively active double PKB mutant (T308D/S473D). In summary, our results demonstrate that PKB interacts with PKCzeta in vivo and that PKCzeta acts as a negative regulator of PKB.  (+info)

A human protein kinase Bgamma with regulatory phosphorylation sites in the activation loop and in the C-terminal hydrophobic domain. (8/12568)

We have cloned human protein kinase Bgamma (PKBgamma) and found that it contains two regulatory phosphorylation sites, Thr305 and Ser472, which correspond to Thr308 and Ser473 of PKBalpha. Thus it differs significantly from the previously published rat PKBgamma. We have also isolated a similar clone from a mouse cDNA library. In human tissues, PKBgamma is widely expressed as two transcripts. A mutational analysis of the two regulatory sites of human PKBgamma showed that phosphorylation of both sites, occurring in a phosphoinositide 3-kinase-dependent manner, is required for full activity. Our results suggest that the two phosphorylation sites act in concert to produce full activation of PKBgamma, similar to PKBalpha. This contrasts with rat PKBgamma, which is thought to be regulated by 3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase 1 alone.  (+info)

The serine/threonine kinase Akt (PKB/Rac) has been implicated as playing a role in the insulin-signaling pathway to glucose transport. Little is known regarding the regulation of Akt kinase activity in insulin-sensitive tissues, such as skeletal muscle, or whether this regulation is altered in insulin-resistant states such as NIDDM. We examined the effect of insulin on Akt kinase activity in skeletal muscle from six NIDDM patients and six healthy subjects. Whole-body insulin sensitivity, assessed by the euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp, was significantly lower in NIDDM subjects (P , 0.001), and this was accompanied by impaired in vitro insulin-stimulated glucose transport in skeletal muscle. In both groups, insulin induced a significant increase in Akt kinase activity, but the response to maximal insulin (60 nmol/1) was markedly reduced in skeletal muscle from NIDDM subjects (66% of control levels, P , 0.01). Impaired Akt kinase activity was not accompanied by decreased protein expression of ...

Akt/protein kinase B (PKB) plays a critical role in the regulation of metabolism, transcription, cell migration, cell cycle progression, and cell survival. The existence of viable knockout mice for each of the three isoforms suggests functional redundancy. We generated mice with combined mutant alleles of Akt1 and Akt3 to study their effects on mouse development. Here we show that Akt1-/- Akt3+/- mice display multiple defects in the thymus, heart, and skin and die within several days after birth, while Akt1+/- Akt3-/- mice survive normally. Double knockout (Akt1-/-) Akt3-/-) causes embryonic lethality at around embryonic days 11 and 12, with more severe developmental defects in the cardiovascular and nervous systems. Increased apoptosis was found in the developing brain of double mutant embryos. These data indicate that the Akt1 gene is more essential than Akt3 for embryonic development and survival but that both are required for embryo development. Our results indicate isoform-specifi
Maintenance of skeletal muscle mass is dependent upon a balance between anabolic and catabolic processes and signaling through the Akt (protein kinase B, PKB)/mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) pathway is believed to influence protein synthesis as well as protein degradation in skeletal muscle [1 - 3]. The Akt family consists of three different isoforms, Akt1, Akt2 and Akt3 (PKBα, β, γ) encoded by separate genes [4]. Gene deletion studies have indicated a role for both Akt1 and Akt2 in growth and skeletal muscle size [5] and overexpression of Akt1 has been shown to result in skeletal muscle hypertrophy [6]. Akt activity is regulated by phosphorylation both at a threonine site (T308 for Akt1) located in the central catalytic domain (see e.g. [4,7]) and at a serine site (S473 for Akt1) located in the C-terminal hydrophobic regulatory domain (see e.g. [4,8]). Phosphorylations of both sites are believed to be necessary for full activation of Akt kinase activity [9] although this may not be true ...

AU - Alessi, Dario R.. AU - van Aalten, Daan M. F.. PY - 2002/7/23. Y1 - 2002/7/23. N2 - The products of PI 3-kinase activation, PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 and its immediate breakdown product PtdIns(3,4)P2, trigger physiological processes, by interacting with proteins possessing pleckstrin homology (PH) domains [1, 2]. One of the best characterized PtdIns(3,4,5)P3/PtdIns(3,4)P2 effector proteins is protein kinase B (PKB), also known as Akt [3-5]. PKB possesses a PH domain located at its N terminus, and this domain binds specifically to PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 and PtdIns(3,4)P2 with similar affinity [6, 7]. Following activation of PI 3-kinase, PKB is recruited to the plasma membrane by virtue of its interaction with PtdIns(3,4,5)P3/PtdIns(3,4)P2 [8-10]. PKB is then activated by the 3-phosphoinositide-dependent pro-tein ...
Service of the PI3K/AKT signal pathway is a known driving force for the progression to castration-recurrent prostate cancer (CR-CaP), which constitutes the major lethal phenotype of CaP. RUNX2 binding to the PIP promoter is increased in FOXO4-KD cells. Indeed, the forced expression of FOXO4 reversed the increased invasiveness of LNCaP/shFOXO4 Rabbit Polyclonal to DECR2 cells; the forced expression of FOXO4 did not alter RUNX2 protein levels, yet it decreased RUNX2 binding to the PIP promoter, resulting in PIP downregulation. Finally, there was a correlation between FOXO4, but not FOXO1 or FOXO3, downregulation and decreased metastasis-free survival in human CaP patients. Our data strongly recommend that improved PI3E/AKT-mediated metastatic invasiveness in Cover can be connected with FOXO4 reduction, and that systems to induce FOXO4 re-expression might suppress Cover metastatic aggressiveness. Intro Prostate tumor (Cover) continues to be the most diagnosed non-cutaneous tumor and the second ...
Aberration of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs), PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10), and PIK3CA (encodes the p110 subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase [PI3K]) frequently contribute to tumor progression through their ability to regulate the intracellular level of phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5- triphosphate (PIP3). PIP3 subsequently recruits 3-phosphoinositide- dependent kinase-1 (PDK-1), a serine/threonine kinase, to the plasma membrane and initiates PDK-1 kinase activity to phosphorylate AKT within the activation loop of the catalytic domain at the residue threonine-308 (T308). The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) plays a critical role in the PI3K/AKT pathway. The mTOR kinase is present as two protein complexes, TORC1 and TORC2. The TORC1 complex is activated by PI3K/AKT and phosphorylates p70S6K and 4E-BP1 to modulate protein translation whereas the TORC2 complex phosphorylates AKT in the regulatory domain at residue serine 473 (S473). Phosphorylation of AKT at ...
The Akt/PKB kinase is a well-characterized effector of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), and its deregulation plays important roles in the pathogenesis of human cancers. PI3K is necessary for the activation of Akt/PKB, and current models suggest that phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-triphosphates produced upon growth factor stimulation recruit Akt/PKB to the plasma membrane by binding to its N-terminal pleckstrin homology (PH) domain. At the membrane, Akt/PKB is phosphorylated on two key residues: Thr308 (T308) of the activation loop by PDK1 (1, 2) and Ser473 (S473) in the hydrophobic motif of the C-terminal tail by a kinase whose identity has been elusive. The role of S473 phosphorylation is controversial, but there is an emerging view that it precedes the phosphorylation of T308 and is important for the recognition and activation of Akt/PKB by PDK1 (3-5).. The molecular identity of the S473 kinase (S473K), at times referred to as PDK2 or the hydrophobic motif (HM) kinase, has been hotly debated ...
The Akt (also referred to as protein kinase B) family of serine/threonine protein kinases is highly conserved in evolution.5 Akt1 and Akt2 share extensive sequence homology at the amino acid level, whereas Akt3 is slightly more divergent in structure and is expressed as a splice variant that lacks a regulatory phosphorylation site.6 Akt protein kinases are stimulated by a number of receptor tyrosine kinases, and this is mediated by the action of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K). PI3K phosphorylates inositol lipids that activate Akt directly by binding to its pleckstrin homology domain and promoting its translocation to the membrane and indirectly by activating the protein kinases that phosphorylate Akt. In the heart, Akt activation is regulated by insulin and nutritional status,7 exercise training,8-10 pressure overload,11 and advanced disease.12,13 In turn, Akt signaling regulates myocyte size, at least in part, through activation of mTOR-dependent progrowth pathways14,15 and suppression of ...

Identified 2 decades ago, the serine/threonine kinase Akt has emerged as a promising target for drug development. Akt is critically involved in multiple signaling cascades, controlling cell growth and proliferation, and its activation is a prominent feature of many human cancers. On the basis of the strong rationale for targeting Akt for cancer therapy, multiple attempts to identify Akt inhibitors with acceptable pharmaceutical properties have been pursued (17). However, despite the significant progress in identifying Akt small-molecule inhibitors, selectivity has been a key issue for many previously reported ATP-competitive Akt inhibitors (relative to the kinome, especially within the AGC kinase family), raising concerns on safety and unclear mechanisms of action of these drugs. Even allosteric inhibitors, which held the promise of greater selectivity against the kinome, have been reported to exhibit unexpected nonkinase off-target effects (35).. GDC-0068 is a highly selective, orally available ...
Akt reportedly plays key roles in various cellular functions, including glucose transport, glycogen synthesis, DNA synthesis, antiapoptotic activity, and cell proliferation. Thus, the role of Akt is not limited to the metabolic actions of insulin, and intensive studies have focused on Akt in various fields of cell biology, tissue development, and so on. Several reports have described tissue-specific findings in mice transgenic for Akt. The heart (39-41) and pancreas (42,43), in which an active mutant of Akt was overexpressed, showed marked tissue enlargement. To study the role of hepatic Akt, constitutively active Akt was overexpressed selectively in the liver, and the resultant phenotype was investigated. We cannot rule out the possibility that myr-Akt stimulates some signals that endogenous Akt does not; however, because Akt is phosphorylated, translocated to the membrane fraction, and then transmits the signal(s), the overexpression of myr-Akt rather than wild-type Akt is more physiological, ...
Our data reveal a novel PS1 function by which this protein stimulates PI3K/Akt signaling and promotes cell survival. This conclusion is supported by the following observations: (1) absence of PS1 results in low levels of phosphorylated Akt and increased apoptosis; (2) exogenous PS1 stimulates Akt phosphorylation and rescues PS1 null cells from apoptosis; (3) a constitutively active PI3K restores Akt activation and suppresses apoptosis induced by the absence of PS1; (4) pharmacological inhibition of either PI3K or Akt prevents the PS1‐dependent Akt phosphorylation and caspase‐3 inactivation, indicating that the PI3K/Akt pathway mediates the anti‐apoptotic effects of PS1.. Cadherin-cadherin interactions initiate a cascade of signaling events that result in increased cadherin/PI3K association, activation of PI3K/Akt signaling and increased cell survival (Pece et al, 1999; Peluso et al, 2001; Kovacs et al, 2002; Tran et al, 2002; Yap and Kovacs, 2003). Our data that cadherin overexpression ...
The Alpha SureFire® Ultra™ HV Multiplex p-Akt 1/2/3 (Ser473) + Total Akt 1 assay kit is used to measure both the phosphorylation (Ser473) and total levels of endogenous Akt in cellular lysates. The kit measures phosphorylation on Ser473 of Akt 1/2/3, and total levels of Akt 1 only. The assay is an ideal system for the screening of modulators of receptor activation (e.g. agonists and antagonists) as well as agents acting intracellularly, such as small molecule inhibitors of signal transduction. The assay will measure Akt (Ser473) activation by either recombinant or endogenous receptors, and can be applied to primary cells.
Akt, or protein kinase B, is a multifunctional serine-threonine protein kinase implicated in a diverse range of cellular functions including cell metabolism, survival, migration, and gene expression. However, the in vivo roles and effectors of individual Akt isoforms in signaling are not explicitly clear. Here we show that the genetic loss of Akt1, but not Akt2, in mice results in defective ischemia and VEGF-induced angiogenesis as well as severe peripheral vascular disease. Akt1 knockout (Akt1-/-) mice also have reduced endothelial progenitor cell (EPC) mobilization in response to ischemia, and reintroduction of WT EPCs, but not EPCs isolated from Akt1-/- mice, into WT mice improves limb blood flow after ischemia. Mechanistically, the loss of Akt1 reduces the basal phosphorylation of several Akt substrates, the migration of fibroblasts and ECs, and NO release. Reconstitution of Akt1-/- ECs with Akt1 rescues the defects in substrate phosphorylation, cell migration, and NO release. Thus, the Akt1 ...

These observations emphasize the sturdy association among the balance of Akt and mTORC1 routines and the development of steatosis. When Akt dominates above mTORC1, steatosis ensues, whilst when mTORC1 overshadows Akt, fat deposition is suppressed. Other designs of Akt suppression in the liver also result in a reduction in TG accumulation together with glucose intolerance equivalent to that of the Tsc12/two mice. Hence, inhibition of hepatic Akt action by any quantity of mechanisms leads to complete hepatic insulin resistance. On the opposite, growing Akt function in hepatocytes by immediate or oblique implies promotes lipogenesis and steatosis. These conclusions help our conclusion that the protecting result of mTORC1 from diet plan-induced steatosis is mediated by means of the inhibition of Akt signaling and underscore the prospective for focusing on Akt pharmacologically in the treatment method of steatosis. Rapamycin is frequently employed as an immunosuppressant adhering to renal transplant, ...

Akt1通过抑制凋亡过程从而参与细胞存活途径。Akt1亦能诱导蛋白合成通路,故其在导致骨骼肌肥大及的一般组织生长的细胞通路中是一种重要信号蛋白。因其可以阻断凋亡并继而促进细胞存活,现已表明Akt1在多种肿瘤中起到主要作用。Akt(先亦被称为Akt1)首先是在转化逆转录病毒AKT8中被鉴定为癌基因的[3]。 Akt2在胰岛素信号通路中是一重要的信号分子。需要其来诱导葡萄糖转运。在敲除Akt1但具正常Akt2的小鼠中,血糖稳态不受干扰,但动物体型会较小,这与Akt1在生长中起得作用是一致的。相反,Akt2缺失但具有正常Akt1的的小鼠生长略缺陷且表现出糖尿病表型(胰岛素抵抗),这从另一方面印证了Akt2对胰岛素受体信号通路更具特异性的这一设想[4]。 Akt3似乎主要在脑中表达,但其作用仍未明晰。有报道显示Akt3缺失的小鼠脑部较小[5]。 ...

Growth factor receptor levels are aberrantly high in diverse cancers, driving the proliferation and survival of tumor cells. Understanding the molecular basis for this aberrant elevation has profound clinical implications. Here we show that the pleckstrin homology domain leucine-rich repeat protein phosphatase (PHLPP) suppresses receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) signaling output by a previously unidentified epigenetic mechanism unrelated to its previously described function as the hydrophobic motif phosphatase for the protein kinase AKT, protein kinase C, and S6 kinase. Specifically, we show that nuclear-localized PHLPP suppresses histone phosphorylation and acetylation, in turn suppressing the transcription of diverse growth factor receptors, including the EGF receptor. These data uncover a much broader role for PHLPP in regulation of growth factor signaling beyond its direct inactivation of AKT: By suppressing RTK levels, PHLPP dampens the downstream signaling output of two major oncogenic pathways, the
TY - JOUR. T1 - Polycystin-1 mitigates damage and regulates CTGF expression through AKT activation during cardiac ischemia/reperfusion. AU - Aránguiz, P.. AU - Romero, P.. AU - Vásquez, F..

N2 - During ischemia/reperfusion (I/R), cardiomyocytes activate pathways that regulate cell survival and death and release factors that modulate fibroblast-to-myofibroblast differentiation. The mechanisms underlying these effects are not fully understood. Polycystin-1 (PC1) is a mechanosensor crucial for cardiac function. This work aims to assess the role of PC1 in cardiomyocyte survival, its role in profibrotic factor expression in cardiomyocytes, and its paracrine effects on I/R-induced cardiac fibroblast function. In vivo and ex vivo I/R and simulated in vitro I/R (sI/R) were induced in wild-type and PC1-knockout (PC1 KO) mice and PC1-knockdown (siPC1) ...
Further evaluation of PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway inhibitors is required to confirm whether the patterns of sensitivity observed in preclinical studies can be applied in the clinic. Although many early-phase trials have independently failed to identify a distinct association between clinical response and the most common alterations in the PI3K pathway (PIK3CA mutation and PTEN loss), a pooled analysis of 140 patients with various breast and gynecologic cancers treated with different PI3K/AKT/mTOR inhibitors identified an increased rate of RECIST-defined clinical responses among patients with PIK3CA mutations (75). A follow-up study pooling 1,012 patients with diverse cancers treated with PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway inhibitors also identified an increased rate of response among tumors with PIK3CA H1047R mutation, but not those with other PIK3CA mutations or concurrent PIK3CA and KRAS mutations (76). The findings of these association studies have sparked interest in the research community; however, additional ...
The forkhead box O (FOXO) family of transcription factors regulates the expression of genes in cellular physiological events including apoptosis, cell-cycle control, glucose metabolism, oxidative stress resistance, and longevity. A central regulatory mechanism of FOXO proteins is phosphorylation by the serine-threonine kinase Akt/protein kinase B (Akt/PKB), downstream of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), in response to insulin or several growth factors. Phosphorylation at three conserved residues results in the export of FOXO proteins from the nucleus to the cytoplasm, thereby decreasing expression of FOXO target genes. In contrast, the stress-activated c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and the energy sensing AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), upon oxidative and nutrient stress stimuli phosphorylate and activate FoxOs. Aside from PKB, JNK and AMPK, FOXOs are regulated by multiple players through several post-translational modifications, including phosphorylation, but also acetylation, ...

Development of resistance to endocrine therapy is a clinical issue in estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer. Here we show that persistent activation of AKT/mTOR signaling is crucial to the acquisition of letrozole resistance in cell clones generated from MCF-7/AROM-1 aromatase-expressing breast cancer cells after prolonged letrozole exposure. ERα plays a marginal role in this context. As a proof of concept, the association between PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling and insensitivity to endocrine therapies was confirmed in breast cancer patients who developed early letrozole resistance in neoadjuvant setting. In addition our results suggest that, regardless of the mechanism mediating the activation of AKT/mTOR pathway, either RAD001 or NVP-BEZ235 treatment may represent a promising strategy to overcome acquired resistance to letrozole in breast cancers dependent on AKT/mTOR signaling.

3589 In women, endometrial cancer is the fourth in importance among all types of cancer. While most patients with disease recurrence after primary therapy are incurable, there is a subset of patients treated with surgery only who have recurrence confined to the pelvis that may be cured with appropriate radical pelvic irradiation. However, recurrent endometrial carcinoma, non-response to irradiation, age of the women or the presence of metastases are reasons that lead to the use chemotherapeutic agents. A major difficulty with chemotherapy is cellular resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs, and the mecanisms involved remain to be elucidated. Three isoforms of serine/threonine protein kinase Akt have been identified: Akt1, Akt2, Akt3, which are expressed and regulated differently in normal and cancer cells. The activity of Akt has been shown to suppress apoptosis and could be involved in chemoresistance. We have evaluated the role of Akt isoforms in chemoresistance of endometrial carcinoma cells, ...
In this study, we show that AKT overexpression alone in tamoxifen-sensitive, ER+ breast cancer cells is sufficient to confer tamoxifen-resistant cell proliferation. To identify genes that may be involved in AKT-induced tamoxifen resistance, we used microarray analysis to identify differentially expressed genes. Functional analysis revealed that two main biologic processes are altered: cell proliferation and cell motility (Supplementary Table S2), supporting our in vitro observations seen in AKT-expressing cells. Because expression of both AKT1 and AKT3 are significantly greater in patient breast tumors (Fig. 1) and because tumors exhibit greater cell proliferation and motility than normal cells, it was not surprising that these same differentially expressed genes also strongly correlated with breast carcinoma as compared with normal breast tissue in existing tumor cohorts, further validating our array data (Fig. 5B and Supplementary Fig. S4).. From our IPA analysis, estrogen and NFκB were ...
Accumulated evidence indicates that, by the phosphorylation of its physiological substrates, Akt promotes cell survival, proliferation and angiogenesis. While a number of Akt targets have been identified, the mechanism by which Akt regulates cell survival and growth and induces malignant transformation still remains elusive. During the last 5 years, I have shown that AKT1 cross-talks with Src/Stat3 pathway. AKT1 is a direct target gene of Stat3. Protein/mRNA levels and promoter activity of AKT1 are significantly induced by constitutively active Src and Stat3. Knockdown of Stat3 or dominant-negative Stat3 reduced AKT1 expression induced by constitutively active Src. Blockage of AKT1 expression largely reduced Stat3 function in cell survival and angiogenesis. Furthermore, I have shown that proapoptotic protein 24p3 is a major target of Akt to mediate IL3 signaling in hematopoietic cells. Forkhead transcription factor FOXO3a directly binds to and activates 24p3 promoter leading to expression of 24p3 in
TY - JOUR. T1 - Regulation of insulin action by ceramide. T2 - Dual mechanisms linking ceramide accumulation to the inhibition of Akt/protein kinase B. AU - Stratford, Suzanne. AU - Hoehn, Kyle L.. AU - Liu, Feng. AU - Summers, Scott A.. PY - 2004/8/27. Y1 - 2004/8/27. N2 - The sphingolipid ceramide negatively regulates insulin action by inhibiting Akt/protein kinase B (PKB), a serine/threonine kinase that is a central regulator of glucose uptake and anabolic metabolism. Despite considerable attention, the molecular mechanism accounting for this action of ceramide has remained both elusive and controversial. Herein we utilized deletion constructs encoding two different functional domains of Akt/PKB to identify which region of the enzyme conferred responsiveness to ceramide. Surprisingly the findings obtained with these separate domains reveal that ceramide blocks insulin stimulation of Akt/PKB by two independent mechanisms. First, using the isolated pleckstrin homology domain, we found that ...
PTEN/MMAC1 is a tumor suppressor gene that is mutated in a variety of cancers. PTEN encodes a phosphatase that recognizes phosphoprotein substrates and the phospholipid, phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-triphosphate. PTEN inhibited cell growth and/or colony formation in all of the epithelial lines tested with one exception. The decrease in cellular proliferation was associated with an induction of apoptosis and an inhibition of signaling through the phosphatidylinositol 3′-kinase pathway. Akt/protein kinase B, a gene whose antiapoptotic function is regulated by phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-triphosphate, was able to rescue cells from PTEN-dependent death. PTEN, therefore, appears to suppress tumor growth by regulating phosphatidylinositol 3′-kinase signaling. ...
TY - JOUR. T1 - Protein kinase B (c-Akt). T2 - A multifunctional mediator of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase activation. AU - Coffer, Paul J.. AU - Jin, Jing. AU - Woodgett, James R.. PY - 1998/10/1. Y1 - 1998/10/1. N2 - 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-kinase (PI-3K), which results in the generation of a membrane-restricted second messenger, polyphosphatidylinositides containing a 3-phosphate. How these molecules transduced the effects of agonists of PI-3K was unclear until the recent discovery that several protein kinases become activated upon exposure to 3-phosphorylated inositol lipids. These enzymes include protein kinase B (PKB)/AKT and PtdIns(3,4,5)P3-dependent kinases 1 and 2, the first two of which interact with 3-phosphorylated phosphoinositides via pleckstrin ...
Amplification or overexpression of HER-2/neu in cancer cells confers resistance to apoptosis and promotes cell growth. The cellular localization of p21Cip1/WAF1 has been proposed to be critical either in promoting cell survival or in inhibiting cell growth. Here we show that HER-2/neu-mediated cell growth requires the activation of Akt, which associates with p21Cip1/WAF1 and phosphorylates it at threonine 145, resulting in cytoplasmic localization of p21Cip1/WAF1. Furthermore, blocking the Akt pathway with a dominant-negative Akt mutant restores the nuclear localization and cell-growth-inhibiting activity of p21Cip1/WAF1. Our results indicate that HER-2/neu induces cytoplasmic localization of p21Cip1/WAF1 through activation of Akt to promote cell growth, which may have implications for the oncogenic activity of HER-2/neu and Akt.
Neuroblastoma is a paediatric cancer of the sympathetic nervous system. The single most important genetic indicator of poor clinical outcome is amplification of the MYCN transcription factor. One of many down-stream MYCN targets is miR-184, which is either directly or indirectly repressed by this transcription factor, possibly due to its pro-apoptotic effects when ectopically over-expressed in neuroblastoma cells. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the molecular mechanism by which miR-184 conveys pro-apoptotic effects. We demonstrate that the knock-down of endogenous miR-184 has the opposite effect of ectopic up-regulation, leading to enhanced neuroblastoma cell numbers. As a mechanism of how miR-184 causes apoptosis when over-expressed, and increased cell numbers when inhibited, we demonstrate direct targeting and degradation of AKT2, a major downstream effector of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway, one of the most potent pro-survival pathways in cancer. The pro-apoptotic effects
Non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC) are associated with constitutive activation of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) → Akt → mTOR pathway (1-3). The PI3K p85 regulatory subunit contains Src homology 2 (SH2) domains that interact with pYXXM sequences on activated receptor tyrosine kinases (RTK), such as the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR; ref 4). In turn, PI3K p85-mediated inhibition of the PI3K p110 catalytic subunit is relieved and p110 phosphorylates Akt (4). PI3K p110 also binds directly to Ras, linking PI3K signaling to the activation of Ras (5). Effective treatment of NSCLC with EGFR inhibitors is associated with suppression of PI3K activity and resistance to these inhibitors occurs with reactivation of the PI3K → Akt signaling pathway (4). The mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) is a downstream effector of Akt, as well as other inputs, that regulates cell growth and is often dysregulated in human cancers (6). In this regard, agents that block the PI3K → Akt → mTOR pathway are ...
AKT (a serine/threonine protein kinase) has become a popular target for drug discovery campaigns, due to the fact that AKT inhibitors may help to treat a number of cancers. In this application note BioTek demonstrates an automated homogeneous assay to probe AKT phosphorylation at its serine 473 residue using endogenous levels of kinase expression within human primary HUVEC cells.
The observation of three distinct patterns (nuclear, cytoplasmic, and both) of localization of FKHR1 suggested the possibility that its intracellular localization might be regulated by extracellular growth signals or cell cycle progression. This hypothesis was tested by determining the localization of FKHR1-HA in serum-starved cells. CV1 cells transiently transfected with FKHR1-HA subsequently were maintained in serum-free medium for 24 hr before fixation. Under conditions of serum starvation FKHR1-HA was restricted to the nucleus in greater than 90% of the cells (Fig. 1 B and I). Moreover, treatment of serum-starved cells expressing FKHR1-HA with either 50 nM insulin-like growth factor I (Fig. 1O) or 10% serum (data not shown) for periods of time as short as 15-30 min was sufficient to cause export of FKHR1-HA from the nucleus in 70% of cells.. The growth factor stimulation of FKHR1-HA nuclear export could reflect either a passive process, such as inhibition of DNA binding leading to a ...
FSH stimulation of granulosa cells (GCs) results in increased hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1alpha protein levels and HIF-1 activity that is necessary for up-regulation of certain FSH target genes including vascular endothelial growth factor. We report that the role of the phosphatidylinositol (PI)-3-kinase/AKT pathway in increasing HIF-1alpha protein in FSH-stimulated GCs extends beyond an increase in mammalian target of rapamycin-stimulated translation. FSH increases phosphorylation of the AKT target mouse double-minute 2 (MDM2); a phosphomimetic mutation of MDM2 is sufficient to induce HIF-1 activity. The PI3-kinase/AKT target forkhead box-containing protein O subfamily 1 (FOXO1) also effects the accumulation of HIF-1alpha as evidenced by the ability of a constitutively active FOXO1 mutant to inhibit the induction by FSH of HIF-1alpha protein and HIF-1 activity. Activation of the PI3-kinase/AKT pathway in GCs by IGF-I is sufficient to induce HIF-1alpha protein but surprisingly not HIF-1 activity.

rIPC [remote IPC (ischaemic preconditioning)] has been shown to invoke potent myocardial protection in animal studies and recent clinical trials. Although the important role of PI3K (phosphoinositide 3-kinase)/Akt activation in the cardioprotection afforded by local IPC is well described, our understanding of the intracellular signalling of rIPC remains incomplete. We therefore examined the hypothesis that the myocardial protection afforded by rIPC is mediated via the PI3K/Akt/GSK3β (glycogen synthase kinase 3β) signalling pathway, activation of which is associated with nuclear accumulation of β-catenin. rIPC was induced in mice using four cycles of 5 min of ischaemia and 5 min of reperfusion of the hindlimb using a torniquet. This led to reduced infarct size (19±4% in rIPC compared with 39±7% in sham; P,0.05), improved functional recovery and reduced apoptosis after global I/R (ischaemia/reperfusion) injury using a Langendorff-perfused mouse heart model. These effects were reversed by ...
FIGURE 3. The Keap1-independent regulation of Nrf2 protein stability. As illustrated, the Keap1-independent regulation of Nrf2 protein stability may occur via two pathways. One pathway is that GSK-3β phosphorylates Nrf2 enabling it to be recognized by β-TrCP and ubiquitylated by the β-TrCP-Cul1 E3 ubiquitin ligase complex for the eventual proteasomal degradation. The other pathway is dependent on Hrd1, an E3 ligase that ubiquitylates Nrf2 for proteasomal degradation. Hence, both pathways are negative regulators of Nrf2 protein stability, and inhibition of these pathways would cause Nrf2 activation and increased antioxidant gene expression. 2.3.1. β-TrCP-Cul1-Dependent Pathway Activation of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt pathway causes Nrf2 activation, increasing ARE-driven antioxidant gene transcription [20]. A critical mediator in the PI3K/Akt-dependent pathway is glycogen synthase kinase-3beta (GSK-3β), which phosphorylates Nrf2 [21]. This phosphorylation enables Nrf2 to be ...

Introduction Weve shown previously that overexpression of constitutively dynamic Akt or activation of Akt due to constitutively dynamic Ras or individual epidermal development aspect receptor-2 (HER2) confers in breast cancers cells level of resistance to chemotherapy or radiotherapy. on phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3-K). An elevated baseline degree of Akt was within MCF7 cells treated with ionizing rays also. The cellular replies to doxorubicin-induced Akt phosphorylation had been potentiated following the appearance of Akt upstream activators including HER2, HER3 and focal adhesion kinase. Bottom line Used as well as our latest released outcomes displaying that constitutive Akt mediates level of resistance to radiotherapy or chemotherapy, our 443776-49-6 IC50 443776-49-6 IC50 present data claim that the doxorubicin-induced phosphorylation and activation of Akt might reveal a cellular protective mechanism of tumor cells to get over doxorubicin-induced cytotoxic results, which further works ...
