This result may seem paradoxical since increased phosphorylated AKT, due to inactivation of Pten , suppresses apoptosis and promotes proliferation.
Several apoptotic pathways may be inhibited upon activation of AKT, promoting maintenance and survival of tumor cells.
Substrates of AKT include glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3), p70/S6 kinase, BAD, Caspase 9, 4E-BP1, IκB kinase α and members of the Forkhead transcription family [reviewed in ref.
Membrane localization renders AKT permissive to phosphorylation by phosphatidyl inositol-dependent kinases, PDK1 and PDK2, at Thr308 within the activation loop and at Ser473 near the carboxyl terminus.
To determine if activated AKT was increased in tumors that had a Pten defect, these sections were stained using an antibody that specifically detects AKT1 phosphorylated at Ser 473 (and AKT2 and AKT3 phosphorylated at equivalent sites).
