Abstract

The serine/threonine kinase Akt has been implicated in the control of cell survival and metabolism. Here we report the disruption of the most ubiquitously expressed member of the akt family of genes, akt1 , in the mouse. Akt1 −/− mice are viable but smaller when compared to wild-type littermates. In addition, the life span of Akt1 −/− mice, upon exposure to genotoxic stress, is shorter. However, Akt1 −/− mice do not display a diabetic phenotype. Increased spontaneous apoptosis in testes, and attenuation of spermatogenesis is observed in Akt1 −/− male mice. Increased spontaneous apoptosis is also observed in the thymi of Akt1 −/− mice, and Akt1 −/− thymocytes are more sensitive to apoptosis induced by γ-irradiation and dexamethasone. Finally, Akt1 −/− mouse embryo fibroblasts (MEFs) are more susceptible to apoptosis induced by TNF, anti-Fas, UV irradiation, and serum withdrawal.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
