PI3K/AKT Pathway: A Molecular Hub in Health and Disease

By Dalia Medhat

The PI3K/AKT pathway plays a crucial role in metabolism, neurodegeneration, and cancer. It regulates insulin signaling, obesity, and metabolic disorders while offering therapeutic potential. Dysregulation of this pathway is linked to Alzheimer's disease, influencing oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, and mTOR signaling. In cancer, it drives progression through miRNA regulation and PI3K inhibitors. Understanding its molecular mechanisms provides insights into disease pathogenesis and targeted therapies. With its broad impact on cellular functions, the PI3K/AKT pathway remains a key focus in biomedical research, offering new opportunities for developing treatments across various health conditions.
