General description
A cell permeable, reversible, and substrate competitive phosphatidylinositol analog that inhibits the activation of Akt and select downstream substrates without decreasing phosphorylation of PDK-1 or other kinases downstream of Ras, such as MAPK. Also acts as a potent inducer of apoptosis and selectively kills a variety of cancer cell lines that contain high levels of active Akt. When used at a concentration of 10 µM, it is reported to activate p38α/SAPK2α MAP kinase. At 10 µM it will also inhibit PKA activity.
A phosphatidylinositol analog that inhibits the activation of Akt and selected downstream substrates without affecting the phosphorylation of PDK-1 and other downstream kinases. Decreases phosphorylation of Akt without affecting the total Akt level. Reported to be a potent inducer of apoptosis and to selectively kill a variety of cancer cell lines expressing high levels of active Akt. When used at a concentration of 10 µM, it is reported to activate p38α/SAPK2α MAP kinase. At 10 µM it will also inhibit PKA activity.

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a common cerebral vascular disease with high incidence, disability, and mortality. Ferroptosis is a regulated type of iron-dependent, non-apoptotic programmed cell death. There is increasing evidence that ferroptosis may lead to neuronal damage mediated by hemorrhagic

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a typical neurodegenerative disease. α-Lipoic acid (α-LA) can reduce the incidence of neuropathy. The present study explored the role and mechanism of α-LA in 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+ )-induced cell model of PD. The PD model was induced

Platelet hyperreactivity and increased atherothrombotic risk are specifically associated with dyslipidemia. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα) is an important regulator of lipid metabolism. It was suggested to affect both thrombosis and hemostasis, yet the underlying mechanisms are not well understood.

Immune evasion is critical for fungal virulence. However, how the human opportunistic pathogen Candida glabrata (Cg) accomplishes this is unknown. Here, we present the first genome-wide nucleosome map of the macrophage-internalized Cg consisting of ∼12,000 dynamic and 70,000 total nucleosomes.
