ProtocolIn VitroThe nucleoside analog Triciribine (TCN) is a purine analog which is initially shown to inhibit DNA synthesis. Triciribine selectively inhibits the phosphorylation and activation of all three Akt isoforms. At a concentration of 10 μM Triciribine Akt phosphorylation is inhibited at both Thr308 and Ser473. Triciribine effectively inhibits the phosphorylation and consequently the catalytic activity of Akt in PC-3 cells.
In VivoTriciribine (TCBN) treatment, administered for 7 days after 14 days of hypoxia until 21 days of hypoxia is reached, reversed the vascular thickening as shown by immunohistochemistry and Western analyses. On the other hand, Rapamycin treatment did not prevent hypoxia-induced pulmonary alveolar haemorrhage and congestion. Triciribine partially inhibits progressive pruning of the vasculature.
These protocols are for reference only. InvivoChem does not independently validate these methods.
