The document summarizes the AKT/PKB signaling pathway. It discusses that AKT/PKB promotes metabolism, proliferation, and cell survival as an intracellular signal transduction pathway. Key proteins in the pathway are AKT/PKB and PI3K. The pathway regulates processes like protein synthesis, cell survival, cell proliferation, and glucose metabolism. Dysregulation of the pathway through mutations can contribute to cancer due to AKT/PKB's role in regulating critical cellular functions, making it a potential therapeutic target.
