- Аннотация: Protein kinase B (Akt) plays a major role in the regulation of breast cancer growth, survival, hormone, drug and radiosensitivity, but the clinical value of its expression and activation in human tumors is unclear. Activated Akt1 (pAkt1) expression was quantified in a series of 46 breast cancer and adjacent mammary gland samples by a direct Path-Scan PhosphoAkt1 (Ser473) sandwich ELISA kit. VEGF, sVEGFR1 and sVEGFR2 levels were measured simultaneously by standard ELISA kits. Forty-nine percent of the tumors had an increased pAkt1 level as compared to adjacent tissue. pAkt1 levels were significantly higher in stage IIb than in stage I-IIa tumors. The frequency of pAkt1 elevation was positively associated with tumor size and malignancy grade. pAkt1 was also twice as frequently increased in PgR-negative as in PgR-positive tumors, while its mean level was significantly higher in ER-positive than in ER-negative tumors. VEGF, sVEGFR1 and sVEGFR2 were increased in 73-85% of the tumors, but no associations with most clinicobiological factors and pAkt1 level were found. In conclusion, activation of Akt1 is not associated with VEGF signaling protein expression in breast cancer but is related to tumor size, grade of malignancy, and steroid receptor status.
