Abstract

Phosphoinositide 3-kinase: Role of the p110a isoform The p110α isoform of phosphoinositide 3-kinase is shown to play a critical role in normal and pathological angiogenesis. In particular, it is needed to mediate the migration of endothelial cells downstream of VEGF receptor activation, acting upstream of RhoA. This finding suggests that p110a-selective inhibitors, in addition to their direct effects in inhibiting cancer cell proliferation, will also impact on pathological angiogenesis in tumours.
