AKT1 and amebiasis: The significant pathways corresponding to upregulated microRNAs were as follows: ECM-receptor interaction, Fatty acid degradation, Fatty acid metabolism, Amoebiasis, Fatty acid elongation, Protein digestion and absorption, PI3 K-Akt signalling, Tyrosine metabolism, Other types of O-glycan biosynthesis, Glycosphingolipid biosynthesis-lacto and neolacto series, Valine, leucine and isoleucine degradation, and Focal adhesion (Table 3 and Figure 2(a)).
