Journal ArticleDOI

Impaired B and T Cell Antigen Receptor Signaling in p110δ PI 3-Kinase Mutant Mice

TL;DR: Results reveal a selective role for p110δ in immunity and suggest second messenger signals downstream of tyrosine kinases influence cell metabolism, growth, proliferation, differentiation, motility, and survival.
Journal ArticleDOI

Critical role for the p110α phosphoinositide-3-OH kinase in growth and metabolic regulation

TL;DR: A critical role for p110 α in growth factor and metabolic signalling is demonstrated and an explanation for selective mutation or overexpression of p110α in a variety of cancers is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inactivation of PI(3)K p110δ breaks regulatory T-cell-mediated immune tolerance to cancer

TL;DR: It is reported that p110δ inactivation in mice protects against a broad range of cancers, including non-haematological solid tumours, and can break tumour-induced immune tolerance and should be considered for wider use in oncology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Essential role for the p110δ phosphoinositide 3-kinase in the allergic response

TL;DR: It is reported that genetic or pharmacological inactivation of the p110δ isoform of PI(3)K in mast cells leads to defective SCF-mediated in vitro proliferation, adhesion and migration, and to impaired allergen–IgE-induced degranulation and cytokine release.
