Deskripsi
Understanding the mechanisms driving PI3K isoform dependency in prostate cancer can help the design of future clinical trials. Here, the authors show that gain-of-function mutations in PIK3CA or PIK3CB can confer PI3K p110 isoform dependency and that the direct inhibition of AKT may be superior to PI3K inhibition in PTEN-deficient prostate cancers.
