AKT2 and neoplasm: Using pMDM2 (Ser 166) as an indicator of AKT2 activity matched normal and tumour oro-pharyngeal tumour sections were co-stained with pAKT (Ser 473) (Figure 4D) and this revealed a strong correlation between active AKT and pMDM2 (Ser 166) in tumour stroma compared to normal stroma (Figure 4E).
