Figure 1From: Characterization of AKT independent effects of the synthetic AKT inhibitors SH-5 and SH-6 using an integrated approach combining transcriptomic profiling and signaling pathway perturbations PIAs inhibit AKT phosphorylation after serum starvation. (A) Western blot analysis of cells serum starved for 24 hours prior to incubation for two hours with SH-5 and SH-6, respectively. The phosphorylation status of AKT was determined using specific antibodies. The detection of total AKT served as a loading control. (B) Morphological alterations induced in serum starved cells after 24 hours of treatment with SH-5 and SH-6, respectively. DMSO was used as a solvent control.Back to article page
