5-(2-Benzothiazolyl)-3-ethyl-2-[2-(methylphenylamino)-ethenyl]-1-phenyl-1H-benzimidazolium, or Akt Inhibitor IV, is a cell-permeable benzimidazole compound that inhibits Akt phosphorylation/activation by targeting the ATP binding site of a kinase upstream of Akt, but downstream of PI3K. Shown to block Akt-mediated FOXO1a nuclear export (IC50 = 0.625μM) and cell proliferation (IC50 < 1.25μM) in 786-O cells. Unlike phosphatidylinositol analog-based Akt inhibitors, this inhibitor does not affect PI3K.

β-Adrenergic receptor (β-AR) signalling is strongly associated with tumour progression by the coupling of β-ARs with either a G protein or β-arrestin; however, the related mechanism underlying hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) metastasis is not clear. Here, we reveal that the transcription
Radiation therapy plays a central role in the treatment of glioblastoma, but it is not curative due to the high tumor radioresistance. Phosphatidyl-inositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B (Akt) and Janus kinase (JAK)/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) pathways serve

In the free-living nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, the serine/threonine-specific protein kinase, AKT, is known to play a key role in dauer formation, life-span, and stress-resistance through the insulin-like signaling pathway. Although the structure and function of AKT-coding genes of C. elegans

Hypoxia promotes neural stem cell proliferation, the mechanism of which is poorly understood. Here, we have identified the nuclear orphan receptor TLX as a mediator for proliferation and pluripotency of neural progenitors upon hypoxia. We found an enhanced early protein

To obtain compounds that promote glucose uptake in muscle cells, the novel cell lines A31-IS derived from Balb/c 3T3 A31 and C2C12-IS from mouse myoblast C2C12 were established. In both cell lines, glucose consumption was induced by insulin and suppressed
