From: Attenuation of PTEN increases p21 stability and cytosolic localization in kidney cancer cells: a potential mechanism of apoptosis resistance

Figure 8

Akt phosphorylation is increased in PTEN-knockdown cells. Subconfluent ACHN cells stably transfected with PTEN or mutant control shRNA were transferred to serum-deficient media (0.5% FBS). After 18 hr, fresh serum-deficient media (0.5% serum, "-") or serum-replete media (10% serum, "+") was added for 30 minutes. Cell lysates were immunoblotted with antibodies against phosphorylated and total Akt. Lysates from 3T3 murine fibroblasts were used as controls. Densitometry of p-Akt is normalized to Akt.
