A representative blot of four independent experiments is shown on the left, and densitometry of LC3-II to beta -actin ratios is depicted on the right panel. (B) Cells were treated as described in panel (A), except that they were cultured in the presence of 20 nM bafilomycin A1 (BafA1) for the last 2 h. Data were analyzed as described in panel (A). (C)SLAMF5-silenced or control monocyte-derived dendritic cells were activated with LPS/IFN gamma, and phosphorylation of Akt and p70S6K was analyzed with immunoblotting.

Background: Akt

Akt1, Akt2, and Akt3 make up a family of serine/threonine kinases, often activated downstream of growth factor receptors and PI 3-Kinase. Each Akt family member contains an N-terminal pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, a central kinase domain, and a C-terminal regulatory domain. They have putative roles in cell proliferation and survival, and Akt perturbations are thought to play an important role in tumorigenesis.
