Abstract excerpt
Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-kinase) is known to be a crucial regulator of muscle differentiation. However, its downstream pathway for this function is quite obscure. In this experiment we demonstrated the regulatory mechanism of the differentiation of H9c2 cardiomyoblasts, focusing on PI3-kinase, protein kinase B/Akt (PKB/Akt) and p42/44 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p42/44 MAPK). When H9c2 cells...
