AKT1 and neoplasm: The angiogenic capability was assessed via tube formation assays, and protein expressions of G-CSF, Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF), Transforming Growth Factor-beta (TGF-β), Matrix Metalloproteinases 2 and 9 (MMP2/9), SH2-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase-2 (SHP-2), phosphorylated PI3K/total PI3K (P-PI3K/t-PI3K), phosphorylated AKT/total AKT (P-AKT/t-AKT), and phosphorylated mTOR/total mTOR (P-mTOR/t-mTOR) were measured through Western Blot analysis in both tumor tissues and macrophages.
