Abstract excerpt
Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and its effector protein kinase B (PKB/c-akt) have been implicated as critical mediators of cytokine-induced survival signals. In this study, we have utilized an IL-5 dependent hematopoietic cell line (TF-1) to investigate the signaling events involved in cytokine-dependent erythroblast survival. We demonstrate that IL-5 rescues TF-1 cells from apoptosis through a...
