Whole cell lysates (15 µg total protein) from indicated cell lines were resolved by 4-12% Bis-Tris gel electrophoresis, transferred to a PVDF membrane, and probed with Purified anti-Pan AKT (clone A21001A). Proteins were visualized by chemiluminescence detection using HRP goat anti-mouse IgG (Cat. No. 405306). Direct-Blot™ HRP anti-GAPDH (Cat. No. 607904) was used as a loading control. Western-Ready™ ECL Substrate Premium Kit (Cat. No. 426319) was used as a detection agent. Lane M: Molecular weight marker -
MCF-7 cells (high expression control, top panels) and HEK293 cells (medium-low expression control, bottom, panels) were fixed and permeabilized with cold methanol, blocked with 5% FBS, and then stained with Purified anti-Pan AKT (clone A21001A) (middle and right panels) or Purified mouse IgG2b, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No 401201) (left panels), followed by incubation with Alexa Fluor® 647 goat anti-mouse IgG (Cat. No. 405322). Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (Cat. No. 422801) and merged in the left and middle panel. Images were captured on a Revvity Operetta CLS™ High Content Analysis System with a with a 63X objective. Scale bar: 50 µm. -
IHC staining with anti-Pan AKT (clone A21001A) was performed on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded human testis tissue following antigen retrieval using Tris-EDTA pH 9.0 Antigen Retrieval Buffer (Cat. No. 422704). The tissue sections were incubated without (panel A) or with anti-Pan AKT (clone A21001A) (panels B and C), followed by incubation with Alexa Fluor® 647 Goat anti-mouse (Cat. No. 405322). Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (Cat. No. 422801) (merged in panels A and C). Scale Bar: 50 µm -
MCF-7 cells (positive cell line, filled histogram) and HEK293 cells (medium-low-expressing cell line, open histogram) were fixed and permeabilized using Cyto-Fast™ Fix/Perm Buffer Set (Cat. No. 426803) and intracellularly stained with purified anti-Pan AKT (clone A21001A), or Purified mouse IgG2b, κ Isotype Control (open histogram, dashed line) (Cat No. 401201), followed by incubation with Alexa Fluor® 647 goat anti-mouse IgG (Cat. No. 405322).

The AKT family of proteins, also known as Protein Kinase B (PKB), consists of three isoforms: AKT1, AKT2, and AKT3. These serine/threonine kinases are pivotal in regulating various cellular processes, including glucose metabolism, apoptosis, cell proliferation, transcription, and cell migration. AKT1 is primarily involved in cellular survival pathways and is a key player in inhibiting apoptosis, promoting cell growth, and protein synthesis. AKT2 is crucial in the insulin signaling pathway, facilitating glucose transport and maintaining glucose homeostasis. AKT3 is predominantly expressed in the brain and is essential for brain development. Dysregulation of AKT signaling is associated with numerous diseases, including cancer, diabetes, and neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease. Overexpression or mutations in AKT genes can lead to uncontrolled cell growth and survival, contributing to tumorigenesis in various cancers. Additionally, aberrant AKT signaling is implicated in insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes, as well as neurodegenerative diseases.
